What Is Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)?
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is a physician-supervised treatment that restores testosterone levels in men with clinically diagnosed low testosterone (hypogonadism). According to the American Urological Association, low testosterone affects approximately 2 out of 100 men, with prevalence increasing significantly after age 40.
A 2016 study published in the New England Journal of Medicine (Snyder et al., DOI: 10.1056/NEJMoa1506119) found that TRT improved sexual function, physical activity, and mood in men over 65 with low testosterone. Treatment options include injectable testosterone cypionate, topical gels, and oral formulations like Kyzatrex.

We exclusively use bioidentical testosterone, which is molecularly identical to the hormone your body naturally produces.
