What is Testosterone?

​

Although testosterone is a primarily male hormone, both men and women produce it  Men produce more testosterone than women. The hormone is responsible for a man’s sex drive, sperm production, fat distribution, and maintenance of muscle strength and mass.

In women, the ovaries and adrenal glands produce testosterone, but only about a 10th to a 20th of men’s level.

.

WHAT CAUSES TESTOSTERONE LEVELS TO DECLINE?

Men start to experience a decrease in testosterone as they age. So do women. Men can usually maintain adequate levels into the mid-40s and 50s, but men as young as 30 can be testosterone deficient. Accelerated testosterone decline can be attributed to stress or a medical condition.

​

WHAT SYMPTOMS CAN TESTOSTERONE THERAPY ADDRESS?

​

When men are deficient in testosterone, they experience a myriad of symptoms. These may include:

  • Fatigue

  • Depression

  • Erectile dysfunction

  • Trouble sleeping

  • Mental decline

  • Bone loss

 

Women with low testosterone may experience symptoms including:

  • Hot flashes

  • Weight gain

  • Migraines

  • Insomnia

  • Low libido

 

If you’re a man or woman experiencing any of these symptoms, get your testosterone levels tested at Colorado Ageless Institute.  Call us today!

HOW IS LOW TESTOSTERONE TREATED?

If Dr. Fortin finds you are hormone deficient, testosterone therapy using pellet implants is an effective and natural way to restore hormonal balance. Dr. Fortin places these pellets just under the skin where they release small, constant doses of hormones so you experience a level, balanced therapy.

​

Insertion requires no anesthesia and is performed easily in the office. Pellet therapy doesn’t come with the fluctuations caused by other testosterone delivery methods. Bio-identical testosterone pellets also don’t have the side effects of synthetic hormone replacement.
