Testosterone is an essential hormone for both men and women. When levels are low, quality of life can suffer. At Vitality Hormone Clinic in Edgewater, New Jersey, we provide customized testosterone therapy to help patients regain their vitality.
Testosterone levels can drop due to various factors like aging, illnesses, injuries or medications. Some common reasons include:
While some causes like aging are inevitable, others can potentially be managed with lifestyle changes or adjusting medications. Our physicians help patients identify the root cause and customize suitable treatments.
The symptoms can vary between individuals depending on factors like age, health status and deficiency severity. Patients generally notice effects on one or more aspects like:
Physical symptoms: Low energy, reduced strength and endurance, muscle loss, weight gain (especially belly fat), difficulty sleeping etc.
Sexual health: Lower sex drive, difficulties getting or maintaining erections, reduced seminal fluid etc.
Mood and cognition: Irritability, depression, trouble concentrating, “brain fog” etc.
Since testosterone has wide-ranging roles in vital processes, patients may struggle with their quality of life without recognizing that hormone imbalance is the underlying issue.
If you suspect low testosterone based on symptoms, we recommend getting tested promptly rather than waiting. Age-related decline is gradual, so young men can still have symptoms despite being in the “normal range”.
Delays can worsen symptoms or trigger new health problems like:
At Vitality Hormone Clinic Edgewater, our experienced physicians evaluate your blood tests along with risk factors like age and health conditions to determine if you are a suitable candidate for therapy.

If testing confirms clinically low testosterone, we will discuss treatment options like:
Factors like patient goals, prefered convenience, existing health issues etc help determine the optimal regimen. We also provide supportive treatments like HCG to preserve or boost fertility when needed.
It takes time to optimize dosage with testosterone therapy. We schedule follow up blood work and physical exams at periodic intervals. Dose adjustments ensure patients reach ideal hormone levels to get maximal benefits without adverse effects. We also provide nutrition and lifestyle coaching for better outcomes.
Vitality Hormone Clinic physicians and nurses closely monitor your progress based on your symptoms and lab test trends. We reduce treatment burden by allowing telehealth appointments whenever feasible.
With properly monitored regimens, most patients report improvements like:
Positive effects are often noticeable within the first months but continue improving with longer therapy. Consistency is key as benefits diminish if treatment is abruptly stopped without tapering.
