The frequently asked questions about testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). They cover topics such as the benefits of TRT, determining if TRT is right for you, the appropriate dosage of testosterone, the impact of TRT on fertility, the risk of gynecomastia, the need for additional medications while on TRT, the long-term use of TRT, the administration of TRT through injections or creams, and the potential side effects of TRT.

Takeaways

• TRT offers benefits beyond just sex drive and muscle gain, including improved mental health, bone mineral density, and cardiovascular health.
• The decision to start TRT should be made in consultation with a healthcare provider, taking into account individual symptoms and overall health.
• The appropriate dosage of testosterone should be determined by a healthcare provider and may need to be adjusted over time based on individual response.
• TRT is not birth control.
• Gynecomastia is not caused by testosterone, but individuals with pre-existing gynecomastia may experience a flare-up when starting TRT.
• It is important to avoid unnecessary medications some clinics use to “mitigate side effects” and focus on dosing, frequency, overall health and lifestyle improvements.
• TRT is typically a long-term treatment and should not be thought of as a trial.
• The ideal way to administer TRT can be done through injections or creams, and the choice depends on compliance, individual preference and response.
• Patience and consistency are key when starting TRT, as it may take time for the body to adjust and for optimal results to be achieved.
