Testosterone Replacement Therapy

The scientifically proven benefits of testosterone include: increased lean muscle, decreased body fat, better sleeping, better mood, increase sex drive, and improved erectile performance.

The hypothalamus and pituitary detect the presence of testosterone and regulate production in the body. When levels of testosterone are properly regulated, natural production does diminish within the body because optimum levels are achieved. When testosterone levels fall due to therapy interruptions, the hypothalamus and pituitary detect the drop and resume the chemical signaling that results in the natural production of testosterone. However, for a man who has Low-T, the body either transmits inadequate signals to produce sufficient testosterone naturally, or the body cannot respond appropriately to the signals to produce sufficient testosterone. Therefore, patients who have Low-T and discontinue therapy will most likely return to their natural baseline production, but their baseline level is, in effect, inadequate. At OVME, we utilize HCG to assist the body in naturally producing T while on a therapy regimen.

Proper injections occur every 7-8 days, depending on your need. Testosterone injections only last for 7-8 days in your body so it’s important to stay regular to avoid peaks and valleys in how you feel. At OVME, you do not need an appointment to receive your weekly injections – just walk in. #OVME4Men

Properly managed testosterone therapy does not result in long-term “dependence” and patients who stop therapy will return to their baseline over a period of weeks to months.

OVME’s team of MDs and nurse practitioners have adopted the policy of not writing prescriptions for testosterone. OVME believes testosterone administration is much safer when given in appropriate doses and intervals and when there is proper medical oversight. Although testosterone therapy is a well established medical practice it can be harmful if administered incorrectly. OVME’s TRT program reduces negative outcomes by properly monitoring treatment.
