What are Testosterone Injections? Problems like lethargy, feeling depressed or weak, or experiencing erectile dysfunction are problems difficult to share with a doctor, but they are hard to live with. Why wait? Hormone replacement therapy for men, under the direct supervision of a licensed medical doctor, is a safe, effective way to address weight gain, depression, osteoporosis, anemia or the other conditions that low testosterone can cause.

A Low T count may indicate an androgen deficiency. This is known as andropause, a form of male menopause. This condition has been known to cause a low sex drive, erectile dysfunction or signs of early osteoporosis, depression, sleeplessness, fatigue, and other conditions. Today, hundreds of men have said “No” to feeling ashamed, and “Yes” to fighting back. Working with Dr. Mikhail Berman, a hormone replacement specialist, they have recovered their youthful vigor and are facing the future with optimism and more important, optimal health. Men may feel pressure to “live with,” these issues, even if it minimizes their quality of life. They might not seek medical help. However, it can be risky not to. As we age, our bodily systems can lose up to 60% of their normal functions before symptoms present themselves. That’s HUGE. And, it proves how important it is to treat a condition like low testosterone with hormone therapy before symptoms get the best of us.

How Do Testosterone Injections Work?


Before you can receive testosterone injections you will need to have your hormone levels tested. Dr. Berman will assist you in ordering lab tests that will give you a comprehensive picture of your hormone health. The test must include, at a minimum, the measurement of “free” testosterone, sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), thyroid function, the levels of thyroid hormones, estrogen, estradiol, progesterone, prolactin, PSA , Complete Blood Count and Comprehensive Metabolic Profile. The most comprehensive test is best when assessing whether you have levels of testosterone that are simply below normal, or significant levels that would benefit from testosterone therapy. The basic standard for “low” is anything below 245 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dL). However, Dr. Berman will take your overall health profile into account and may determine that your normal range is slightly different. Basic factors such as your body mass index, patterns of weight gain, your height vs weight, areas of fatty tissue, sleep patterns and eating habits can all influence your t levels. These are all clues that can make up a final determination whether Dr. Berman’s low testosterone treatment would benefit you.

When above a single number of fasting glucose, you are diagnosed as being diabetic. The line drawn is very clear. Hormones don’t work that way. With testosterone especially, doctors work within recommendations made by the Endocrine Society about who would benefit from replacement therapy. While these are accepted standards, hormones, and the endocrine system are complex and interacting very differently in each person. It takes a qualified physician, like Dr. Berman with experience in hormone imbalances to help you make the right decision.
