Benefits of androgen replacement therapy include increased energy, hematocrit, muscle mass, strength and stamina; increased ability to perform more physically demanding tasks; and an overall increase in the sense of wellbeing, confidence and motivation. Bone mineral density is increased by testosterone replacement. Improved libido, sexual function and frequency of erection and ejaculation. With Injectable Therapy,…
DetailsSymptoms relating to low testosterone levels include erectile dysfunction, reduced erectile quality, diminished nocturnal erections, increase in abdominal and visceral adipose tissue. Physical symptoms relating to fatigue, decreased vigor and diminished strength, reduced muscle mass, reduction of lean muscle mass, and decreased in bone mineral density. Sexual symptoms include diminished libido, diminished sexual activity, diminished…
DetailsTestosterone deficiency accounted for decreases in lean mass, muscle size, and strength. Estrogen deficiency primarily accounted for increases in body fat; and both contributed to the decline in sexual function. As serum testosterone levels decline, there is a concomitant decline in serum estradiol levels. And Estradiol deficiency may be important in the pathogenesis of some…
DetailsWhen testosterone aromatization into estradiol is blocked, bone mineral density decreases by 1.7%. Even though testosterone levels may increase with the use of an aromatization inhibitor such, as anastrozole, the estradiol reduction of more than 20% may lead to negative skeletal effects (decrease in bone mineral density). Estradiol levels…are a more robust…predictor of fracture risk…
DetailsSupplemental testosterone produced significant gains in total and appendicular lean mass, muscle strength, and aerobic endurance with significant reductions in whole-body and trunk fat. Outcomes appeared to be further enhanced with GH supplementation. READ FULL ARTICLE
DetailsIn epidemiological studies, serum total and free testosterone concentrations have been inversely correlated with intra-abdominal fat mass, risk of coronary artery disease, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Testosterone administration to middle-aged men is associated with decreased visceral fat and glucose concentrations and increased insulin sensitivity. Testosterone infusion increases coronary blood flow. Similarly, testosterone replacement retards…
DetailsTestosterone treatment was followed by a decrease of visceral fat mass. Insulin resistance decreased. Diastolic blood pressure and serum cholesterol decreased with testosterone treatment. Insulin sensitivity improved. Testosterone treatment … gives beneficial effects on well‐being and the cardiovascular and diabetes risk profile, results similar to those observed after hormonal replacement therapy in postmenopausal women. READ…
DetailsHormone replacement therapy in postmenopausal women and testosterone replacement therapy in older men appear to reduce the degree of central obesity. READ FULL ARTICLE
DetailsPatients felt subjective improvement in pelvic health. Radiofrequency is safe for the treatment of pelvic floor dysfunction. No adverse effects in 50 patients. There is a “tightening cascade ”phenomenon, where the impact of only 1 treatment was needed to initiate patient improvement. READ FULL ARTICLE
DetailsControlled application of thermal energy to the vaginal wall and labia stimulates biological processes in the vaginal skin layers such as proliferation, neovascularization and new collagen formation, resulting in an improvement of symptoms. RF-based therapy can be used safely and successfully for the treatment of various vaginal- related symptoms, including sexual matters and urine incontinence.…
