While this list is extensive, men, in particular, may experience other benefits of testosterone replacement therapy that are not previously mentioned.

Who is a good candidate for testosterone replacement therapy?

Ideal candidates for testosterone replacement therapy have low levels of testosterone in their blood and symptoms of low T. This therapy is not recommended for patients with prostate or breast cancer, heart failure, or severe lower urinary tract symptoms.

Low testosterone, or Low T, is a condition characterized by lower-than-normal levels of testosterone, also known as testosterone deficiency syndrome (TD). 

Proper levels are fundamental for the normal sexual development of males, as well as for sexual functions. Levels are considered lower than usual when the body has less than 300 (ng/dl).

What are some symptoms of low T?

Signs and symptoms of low T can vary from person to person and depend on various unique factors. A patient may benefit from testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) if they are experiencing any of the following:

• Fatigue
• Loss of muscle mass
• Reduction of libido
• Low volume of semen
• Erectile dysfunction (ED)
• Mental fogginess
• Irritability
• Stress
• Anxiety
• Depression
• Reduced ability to concentrate
• Feelings of disorientation
• Emotional instability

Due to there being many other possible causes for undesirable effects, including congenital conditions (present since birth), diseases like diabetes, injury to testicles, and substance use disorder, it’s essential to receive a hormone test from a testosterone replacement therapy specialist to determine if low T is the actual cause.
