Hormone & Testosterone Therapy

If you are experiencing increased fatigue, reduced libido, weight gain, feeling depressed or just not like yourself, it can be a sign that your hormone levels are dropping. A decline in hormone levels can start as early as your 30s, which can impact your quality of life and sense of well-being.

Our doctors in Charleston, SC offer hormone and testosterone (T) therapy treatments that are designed to help boost your hormone levels so that you can get back to feeling more like yourself again.

Testosterone Therapy

Testosterone Therapy

Testosterone therapy is a simple injection given every one to three weeks. Our injections allow the testosterone to go directly where it is needed so that you can begin to see results shortly after therapy.

Testosterone plays a key role in many aspects of healthy body function, including:

  • Healthy muscle mass and bones
  • Facial and pubic hair development
  • Libido
  • Mood and quality of life
  • Verbal memory
  • Thinking ability

Common symptoms of low T levels include:

  • Weight gain
  • Lowered muscle mass
  • Decreased libido
  • Loss of hair
  • Mood swings
  • Fatigue
  • Anxiety attacks

It is important to speak to a doctor if you are noticing changes to your health. Low testosterone is associated with more than emotional and sex-related issues. It can also lead to more serious health issues, including:

  • Unhealthy cholesterol and lipid levels
  • Decreased hemoglobin and possibly anemia
  • Osteoporosis
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • Cardiovascular disease
  • Erectile dysfunction

The hormone therapy available for our male patients in Charleston, SC can address a number of common issues related to low testosterone, including:

  • Reduced muscle mass
  • Weight management
  • Sleep issues
  • Loss of focus
  • Loss of motivation
  • Increased body fat
  • Irritability
  • Decreased bone density

Hormone Therapy

Hormone Therapy

As women age, changes in hormone levels lead to perimenopause and menopause. Other changes such as childbirth and conditions such as Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) can also lead to hormonal changes.

Hormone therapy restores hormonal balance, helping you reach optimum levels for improved health and wellness. We provide natural hormone therapy for women using injections of bio-identical hormones derived from natural sources. The body can identify the hormones and begin to restore hormonal levels.

Symptoms of hormonal imbalance can include:

  • Decreased stamina
  • Memory loss
  • Weight gain
  • Sleepless nights
  • Fatigue
  • Lowered sex drive
  • Acne
  • Mood swings
  • Hot flashes
  • Night sweats
  • Vaginal dryness

The hormone therapy we provide for women throughout Charleston, SC offers many benefits, including:

  • Reduced or less intense hot flashes
  • Reduced vaginal dryness
  • Reduced or less intense night sweats
  • Decreased bone loss
  • Improved sleep
  • More comfortable and enjoyable intercourse
  • Improved mood

Although hormone therapy for women offers many benefits, some women should avoid treatment, including those with the following conditions:

  • Blood clots
  • Breast, uterine, or endometrial cancer
  • Heart or liver disease
  • Past heart attack or stroke
  • Pregnancy

Although hormone therapy is effective, testosterone injections are not recommended for men who have had prostate or breast cancer.
