Testosterone Optimization (TRT)

Q: What are common signs of low testosterone?

A: Symptoms may include fatigue, mood changes, low libido, difficulty building muscle, brain fog, poor sleep, and increased body fat. These signs often indicate suboptimal testosterone levels, regardless of gender.

Q: Is testosterone therapy safe?

A: Yes — when monitored by a licensed provider. We run comprehensive labs and monitor you throughout treatment to ensure safe, effective hormone levels.

A: Most patients use subcutaneous or intramuscular injections. Depending on your treatment plan, we may also include support medications to manage balance and ensure proper function.

Peptides & Optimization Therapies

Q: What are peptides?

A: Peptides are short chains of amino acids that signal your body to perform specific functions like fat burning, tissue repair, or hormone secretion.

Q: Are peptides legal and safe?

A: Yes. We only prescribe FDA-regulated, pharmacy-compounded peptides with proper usage instructions and medical supervision.

Q: How are peptides taken?

A: Most peptides are administered via a small subcutaneous injection using an insulin syringe. Some are available as nasal sprays or capsules depending on the compound.

Q: Can I combine peptides with TRT or HRT?

A: Absolutely. Many patients get the best results when peptides are used alongside hormone therapy to accelerate fat loss, recovery, or sleep improvements.
