When to Consider Professional Help 👨‍⚕️

Still concerned? Here's when talking to your doctor makes sense.

Consider Getting Tested If:

  • You have multiple low T symptoms
  • Symptoms affect your quality of life
  • Lifestyle changes haven't helped
  • You're concerned about your health

About TRT (Testosterone Replacement Therapy):

TRT can help certain men – mainly those with confirmed clinical hypogonadism – especially for improving sexual function.

But it's not a magic youth potion. Guidelines suggest using TRT only when truly needed, as it has limited benefits on things like energy or mood if your T is just age-low.

The goal is your well-being, whether through lifestyle changes or therapy.
