Testosterone Therapy (TRT) Treatment Process
When you visit Genesis Lifestyle Medicine in Frederick, MD, your treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation. During this appointment, we’ll review your medical history, assess symptoms, and conduct blood tests to measure your testosterone levels. Based on the results, we’ll develop a personalized TRT plan. Regular follow-up appointments allow us to monitor your progress and adjust the therapy as needed to ensure the best results.
TRT can sometimes cause side effects, including acne, fluid retention, or changes in mood. Some patients may experience increased red blood cell count or sleep apnea. Our team at Genesis Lifestyle Medicine closely monitors your therapy to minimize side effects and ensure effective treatment. While improvements in energy and libido may be noticeable in the first few weeks, muscle mass and bone density enhancements typically take several months. Regular check-ins help ensure that your therapy stays on track.
