Testosterone Replacement Therapy

What is Testosterone Replacement Therapy?

Testosterone is a hormone that is produced in a male’s testicles. It is vital to help maintain a man’s fat distribution, bone density, muscle mass and strength, facial and body hair, sex drive, sperm production, and red blood cell production.

When testosterone levels are low, it can result in a number of unwanted side effects, including:

  • Low libido
  • Fatigue
  • Erectile dysfunction
  • Decreased muscle mass
  • Depression
  • Irritability
  • Difficulty concentrating

Testosterone replacement therapy is an effective option to help treat low testosterone in men. This therapy is available in several forms, including:

Skin Patch: Androderm is a skin patch that is applied once a day and worn on the upper body or arm.

Gel: Testosterone is also available as a clear gel. This gel is absorbed directly through the skin when you apply it once a day.

Mouth Patch: Striant is a tablet that ticks to the upper gums. When applied twice a day, it continuously releases testosterone into the bloodstream.

Injection and Implants: Testosterone can also be injected into the muscles or implanted as pellets into soft tissues.

Highly Recommended

Met with Dr. Webb today for a second opinion on a surgical procedure and he was very thorough going over everything, answered my questions, explained options in great detail and even went over other health issues I was having that weren’t related. I never felt rushed or like my concerns weren’t important or valid. His staff was very welcoming as well! Highly recommend!

This was the best experience I have had at a Dr’s office in a very long. The office was friendly and efficient I was seen quickly. I feel like Dr. Webb really wants to help his patients stay on top of their health and well-being. I am so happy to have found a women’s clinic that I can trust and feel comfortable in.
