Testosterone
Therapy
As we get older, males and females levels of testosterone drop. At Affinity Laser + Med Spa, we can increase your testosterone levels and help solve a number of issues caused by low testosterone.
Testosterone Therapy
Women often tread carefully at the mere suggestion of testosterone therapy, but just as with men, when testosterone runs low – it affects multiple aspects of life. Testosterone is the hormone that helps women manage their emotions, ensuring the little things, like a sappy commercials, don't evoke uncontrollable tears. Low testosterone often impacts a woman’s weight and sex drive. Without enough testosterone, gaining and sustaining lean body mass can be difficult.
Testosterone delivered by pellet implant, has been used to treat migraines and menstrual headaches. It may also be an effective treatment for vaginal dryness, incontinence, urinary urgency and frequency.
In both men and women, testosterone has been shown to increase energy, relieve depression, increase sense of well-being, relieve anxiety and improve memory and concentration. Testosterone pellets increase lean body mass (muscle strength, bone density) and decrease fat mass. Men and women need adequate levels of testosterone for optimal mental and physical health and for the prevention of chronic illnesses like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, which have been associated with low testosterone levels.
In men, testosterone pellet therapy can improve erectile dysfunction and ensure regardless of age, you can keep up with your high-profile job and those youthful co-workers walking through the door. Low testosterone is among the most common issues facing the aging male. It affects multiple aspects of their lives, including sex drive, incontinence and maintenance of muscle mass.
How Does It Work?
Testosterone implants in the form of small pellets slowly deliver testosterone over the course of three to six months. The testosterone pellets are implanted under the skin.
Imbedded in the fat, the testosterone pellets gradually dissolve over a few months. This testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) administration method gives a slow, steady constant infusion of testosterone into the body.
Overall, testosterone pellets offer a viable testosterone therapy option with low rates of adverse side effects.
