Restore Testosterone Levels
With Personalized Care
Testosterone replacement therapy is a medical treatment that restores testosterone levels in people with a clear deficiency. Testosterone plays a crucial role in maintaining sexual health, muscle development, bone strength, and physical function. When your levels are consistently low, you may experience symptoms that affect your daily life. At Roots Wellness, we investigate your hormone health through consultations and appropriate testing before treatment.
Signs of Low Testosterone:
- Reduced sex drive
- Erectile difficulties
- Persistent fatigue or low energy
- Decreased muscle mass and strength
- Increased body fat
- Reduced bone density
- Mood changes or irritability
- Difficulty concentrating
- Fewer spontaneous or morning erections
How Does Testosterone Replacement Therapy Work?
Your testosterone replacement therapy begins with a consultation to discuss your symptoms, health history, and wellness goals. Your provider uses blood testing to measure testosterone levels, typically with repeat morning measurements to confirm a deficiency. Additional hormone assessments, including DUTCH testing, may provide supplementary information. Once your provider understands your results, you’ll discuss suitable treatment options.
Testosterone Replacement Therapy Options
Testosterone Pellets
Pellets are small implants inserted beneath your skin during an office procedure. They gradually release testosterone over several months, reducing the need for daily applications or frequent injections. Pellets offer a convenient, low-maintenance option for ongoing treatment.
Testosterone Injections
Testosterone injections deliver a prescribed dose into your muscle or fatty tissue. They’re administered at regular intervals and allow your provider to adjust your dose based on testosterone levels and symptoms. They’re a flexible, commonly used treatment option.
Testosterone Creams and Gels
Topical testosterone is applied to your skin and absorbed into your bloodstream. Creams and gels offer a needle-free approach with regular dosing. They’re convenient for people who prefer to avoid injections and allow relatively straightforward dose adjustments.
Benefits of Testosterone Replacement Therapy:
- Improved sexual desire
- Better erectile function in some patients
- Increased lean muscle mass
- Improved bone mineral density
- Reduced symptoms associated with low testosterone
- Potential improvements in mood and energy
- Support for maintaining physical strength
- Improved overall quality of life

FAQs
How Do I Know if My Testosterone Is Low?
Symptoms alone aren’t enough to confirm low testosterone. Your provider typically orders morning blood tests on separate days and reviews your symptoms to determine whether you have a testosterone deficiency that warrants treatment.
How Long Does TRT Take to Work?
Some people notice changes in sexual desire or energy within several weeks. Improvements in muscle mass and body composition generally take longer. Your response depends on your starting levels, treatment method, and overall health.
Do I Need Testosterone Therapy for Life?
Not always. Treatment duration depends on the cause of your testosterone deficiency and your response to therapy. Some conditions require long-term treatment, while others may improve when underlying factors are addressed.
