Symptoms of Low Testosterone

Low testosterone levels can manifest in various symptoms that may affect your quality of life. These can include fatigue, reduced libido and sexual performance, decreased muscle mass and strength, weight gain, mood changes, irritability, difficulty concentrating, and reduced bone density. If you are experiencing these symptoms, it may be an indication that your testosterone levels are low and could benefit from hormone replacement therapy.

Why is My Testosterone Low?

There can be several reasons why men may have low testosterone levels. These include aging, certain medical conditions such as hypogonadism or diabetes, obesity, chronic stress, sedentary lifestyle, poor sleep quality, and certain medications. Understanding the underlying cause of low testosterone is essential in determining the most appropriate treatment approach. We’re ready to help you find the answers you seek.

What is Hormone Replacement Therapy?

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) involves the administration of synthetic testosterone to supplement your body's natural hormone levels. At Hera Health Care, we offer testosterone HRT using pellet therapy. This involves the insertion of small pellets, containing synthetic testosterone, under the skin. The pellets release a consistent dose of testosterone over time, providing a convenient and effective treatment option.

Benefits of Testosterone Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)

Testosterone HRT can offer numerous benefit`s for men with low testosterone levels. Some potential benefits include:

  • Increased energy and stamina.
  • Improved sexual health and libido.
  • Enhanced muscle strength and mass.
  • Improved mood and mental well-being.
  • Enhanced cognitive function and focus.
  • Increased bone density and reduced risk of osteoporosis.
  • Improved overall quality of life.

These benefits can vary from individual to individual, and the effectiveness of testosterone HRT may depend on various factors such as age, overall health, and adherence to treatment protocols. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine if testosterone HRT is appropriate for you and to discuss potential risks and benefits.

What You Need to Know About Low Testosterone in Younger Men

It’s a common misconception that low testosterone only affects older men. In reality, up to 40% of young men under 40 may experience symptoms of low testosterone, including:

  • Fatigue
  • Low sex drive
  • Depression
  • Fertility issues

When levels are too low, it can negatively impact:

  • Sperm production
  • Sexual performance
  • Mood and relationship satisfaction

At Hera Health Care, we aim to help young men recognize the critical link between hormonal health, reproductive wellness, and overall well-being. Our team provides comprehensive evaluations and personalized treatment plans designed for younger men in their 20s and 30s.

What is Pellet Therapy?

Pellet therapy is a form of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) used to address hormonal imbalances, including low testosterone levels. In this treatment, small hormone pellets are inserted just beneath the skin, typically in the buttocks or hip area. These pellets release a consistent and physiologic dose of hormones, such as testosterone, into the body over several months. The procedure is performed in our office and typically takes about 15-30 minutes.

During the pellet therapy procedure, a local anesthetic is used to minimize discomfort. Once the area is numb, a small incision is made, and the hormone pellets are inserted. The incision is then closed with a small adhesive strip or sutures. After the procedure, you may experience some mild bruising, swelling, or discomfort at the insertion site, but these symptoms usually subside within a few days.

Pellet Therapy: Long-Term Ease and Consistency

Pellet therapy is our most convenient and long-lasting option. During a quick, in-office procedure, small, customized pellets containing bioidentical testosterone are inserted just beneath the skin. These pellets release a consistent dose of testosterone over 3–6 months.

Its benefits include:

  • No daily or weekly maintenance—set it and forget it
  • Provides a steady, physiologic release of hormones
  • Fewer hormonal fluctuations and mood swings
  • Ideal for long-term wellness and compliance

Is Pellet Therapy Cost-Effective?

Absolutely. While the upfront cost of pellet therapy may seem higher than gels or injections, its long-term value and convenience make it one of the most cost-effective solutions.

Why?

  • Fewer office visits and no recurring pharmacy co-pays
  • No wasted medication or missed doses
  • Improved consistency leads to better symptom control and fewer complications
  • Lasts up to 6 months, which reduces cumulative costs over time

Pellet therapy often offers many of our patients the best return on investment when considering the quality of life improvements and time saved.

What Other Types of Testosterone Therapy Are Available?

At Hera Health Care, we recognize that no two patients are alike. That’s why we offer multiple forms of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) tailored to your lifestyle, comfort level, and long-term health goals. Our expert team will guide you through the benefits of each option to help you choose the treatment that works best for you.

Gel-Based Testosterone Therapy

Topical testosterone gels are applied daily to the skin, typically the shoulders, upper arms, or abdomen. This method allows for a steady absorption of testosterone into the bloodstream.

Benefits

  • Easy, non-invasive daily application
  • Consistent absorption when used properly
  • Avoids the need for injections or procedures


Considerations

  • Requires daily commitment and skin contact precautions (e.g., avoid transfer to others)
  • Testosterone levels may fluctuate depending on application consistency and absorption
  • Potential skin irritation at the application site

Injection-Based Testosterone Therapy

Injectable testosterone is administered intramuscularly, typically every 1–2 weeks, depending on your prescribed dosage. Injections can be performed in-office or self-administered at home once properly trained.

Benefits

  • Rapid improvement in testosterone levels
  • Flexible administration schedule
  • Cost-effective for short-term treatment

Considerations

  • Requires frequent injections, which may be uncomfortable for some
  • Potential for hormonal “peaks and valleys” between doses
  • Risk of injection site discomfort or irritation
