FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I know if I have Low Testosterone?
Low Testosterone (male hypogonadism) can be caused by many different conditions. Symptoms may vary for each individual depending on different factors including age, body composition, chronic medical conditions, medications. Naturally as we age, testosterone levels decline in males. Aside from laboratory values, symptoms that may indicate low testosterone include low libido, male infertility, depressed mood, loss of hair, difficulty concentrating, loss of endurance and motivation, increased body fat and decreased lean muscle mass and many other symptoms. Your NeuMed Executive Health Provider will review your comprehensive laboratory results, complete an exam and discuss your symptoms to determine if you are a good candidate for therapy.
What therapy should I choose?
There are many different options for treatment, ranging from oral pills to injections to gels/creams. Your NeuMed Executive Health Provider will discuss your treatment options based on your symptoms, laboratory results, health and family history and develop a treatment plan while keeping your safety as our top priority. It is not uncommon to need some dose adjustments and repeat labs in the first few months of therapy until the optimal dose is determined. Your NeuMed Provider will monitor you closely to ensure you are progressing towards improved hormone balance and healthspan.
Will insurance cover my treatments?
On occasion testosterone replacement therapy may be covered by insurance. However, it is often difficult to get approval for testosterone therapy and in the rare occasion where approval is received the insurance provider may per-determine and dictate the dosage, frequency and other factors of therapy, leaving most patients at sub optimal doses and not much improvement in their symptoms.
