You may be asking yourself, “should I do hormone replacement therapy?” – My first answer is… If you want to feel and age well – yes! Seriously, to answer that question, it is important to understand what it is, what the benefits are, and more.

The optimal level of testosterone’s presence in the body for both men and women, enhances your sexual drive, improves your mood, increases your energy, and sharpens your cognitive ability. In short, testosterone directly or indirectly affects all those body components that are often so important in our lives.

Ovaries release testosterone into the bloodstream of women and can start to decline in their late twenties. In contrast, men’s testicles generate this hormone in large amounts resulting in shaping masculine characteristics. You may feel fatigued, notice muscle weakness, see fat gain, especially in the midsection, or experience memory loss when your testosterone level is not optimal.

LowTE Florida can help you with these symptoms. We will measure your hormone levels and guide you accordingly on whether you should start hormone replacement therapy or not.

Hormone replacement therapy may be right for you for various reasons ranging from looking younger to improving your sex life to gaining muscle mass and burning fat. Have you noticed: Low Desire for Sex, less sexual satisfaction, weight gain, poor hair quality, fatigue, muscle loss, mood changes and/or memory loss?

Bio-Identical Hormones have been shown to have positive effects on overall health and well-being. Many patients have said statements like “I have a better sense of well-being”, “this therapy is life changing!”, “I like myself so much more!” and “I finally feel normal.”

At LowTE Florida® we provide individualized treatment based on your biochemistry and your medical history – grounded in science, not guesswork. LowTEFlorida.com
