  1. WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A TRT DOCTOR A Guide To Finding The Right Doctor Slides 01

  2. A Guide To Finding The Right Doctor Very often, men discover their low testosterone levels after an annual physical and a round of labwork. The levels appear low and a primary care physician just remarks that it’s something to watch over time. Occasionally, men will find that their symptoms become worse and worse and it’s ultimately sexual dysfunction issues that drive most men to explore their respective options. If a patient’s primary care physician does not have an endocrinology or urology background, men begin looking to find the right TRT Doctor. TRT Doctors are doctors that specialize in testosterone replacement therapy to address hypogonadism. The right TRT Doctor can help a patient to determine if hormone therapy is appropriate for a patient or not.

  3. The right TRT doctor will assess a patient’s needs The right TRT doctor will assess a patient’s needs and make sure the testosterone treatment protocol is right for them. An easy way to determine whether or not a patient has issues with testosterone deficiency is to see if a patient’s total testosterone level is low. According to research by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), total testosterone should be 10 to 35 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dL) of blood. Many patients have a total testosterone level of 5 to 15 ng/dL. If you have a total testosterone level of less than 15 ng/dL, testosterone replacement therapy is warranted. If the patient is determined to be eligible for testosterone replacement therapy, the TRT Doctor will likely suggest testosterone replacement therapy.

  4. What to look for in a TRT doctor TRT Doctors are highly specialized doctors. Some TRT Doctors are board certified physicians. Doctors trained in internal medicine, pathology, infectious diseases, and other fields of medicine, such as ophthalmology, hematology, or pulmonology, can and do obtain expertise in the treatment of TRT. It is critical for a patient to interview as many TRT Doctors as possible to ensure they are working with the best TRT doctors in the area or near-by. The type of lab work the physician requires is key as well. A patient should never trust a physician just because he or she prescribes testosterone replacement therapy.

  5. What questions to ask a TRT doctor While most patients may be reluctant to talk about their sex life with a doctor, it’s extremely important that a patient work with a knowledgeable, professional TRT doctor to address the root cause of the issues and problems rather than just treating symptoms. One of the important questions that a patient should ask a TRT doctor is, “What will this cost?” A good TRT doctor will have a medical degree and a transparent pricing model. If a patient is not able to find a proper TRT doctor, it’s extremely important to talk to his/her primary care doctor about a referral to a TRT doctor.

  6. How to find a TRT doctor The exact key to finding a good doctor to perform testosterone replacement therapy is that they should not be shy to tell you that there is no medical treatment that reverses hypogonadism. A doctor should tell a patient that they need to contact a urologist or endocrinologist for treatment. It’s often important for patients to research the cost of TRT on their own. A TRT Doctor should be straightforward with a patient’s results and always remember that it’s an elective treatment, not an emergency. Getting a referral from a medical doctor is not difficult. An alternative is to find a national telemedicine practice that specializes in TRT.

  7. Conclusion Some men are considering trying testosterone replacement therapy for one of many reasons: • Can’t get erections • Low libido • Infertility • ED issues • Get out of a shell or change your lifestyle • Erectile dysfunction • Body hair • A slow recovery from injuries • Men can get a complete physical exam that includes testosterone levels. Even if you don’t have your testosterone levels checked at the time of your physical exam, do your part and ask about testosterone testing with your primary care physician.
