• Male hormone therapy is healthy.  Men feel significantly better 4 to 6 weeks after their hormones are balanced. And studies now show that balanced hormones result in a healthier body and mind, and less chronic illness (including Alzheimer’s) over time.
• Effective hormone treatment for men is about balance. One size does not fit all. Health and Wellness Clinic USA, your treatment program is individualized and designed just for you.
• Testing and retesting hormones at appropriate intervals is a critical component to any safe and optimal treatment plan.

Why Testing And Retesting Are So Important

While we rely heavily on how you tell us you feel (i.e. subjective information), testing and retesting your hormone levels is the only objective way we have of knowing exactly what is happening hormonally in your body.

For example: As men age and their hormones levels decline, they will often lose muscle mass, and gain fat. Fat contains an enzyme called aromatase. Aromatase works to convert testosterone to estrogen. The problem is that elevated estrogen leads to undesirable symptoms like low sex drive, and can increase your chances for developing prostate cancer.  We counter this process by increasing testosterone, and by suppressing estrogen as necessary. After a 3 to 6 month period of having balanced hormones and a healthy lifestyle, men will lose fat, regain muscle, and as a result cease to have this conversion problem. Lab testing gives us the information we need to address this situation effectively.**

We can also make adjustments to treatment via retesting. For example, men will sometimes say that they feel great with their new healthy testosterone levels, but that they still lack an adequate sex drive. By retesting, we can make adjustments, and often solve the problem.

The bottom line:  male hormone treatment could not be administered or managed properly without testing and retesting.
