Many of the symptoms that you are experiencing are chronic symptoms. These can include: fatigue, low mood, low libido, or your quality of life isn’t what it should be. You want something that is going to change this instantly.
However, testosterone replacement therapy is not an instant fix. It is a long term therapy for chronic conditions.
Testosterone Replacement Therapy is safe and effective. It is most likely the way that we are going to treat those symptoms.
How long does TRT take to work?
There are many factors that can contribute to your response to TRT. You may have an underlying medical issue. Your testosterone level before starting TRT. How well you adhere to the treatment plan set in place by your provider.
Your body takes time to adjust to new things. Whether it is a new workout regime, new diet or in this case the new testosterone replacement therapy. Most men respond very well to TRT. The majority of men see some improvement within 4-6 weeks. After that timeframe there is continued improvement as we get your testosterone replacement therapy dialed in for you.
It is a myth to think that you need to wait for your testosterone to rise to a higher level. Most men get some symptom relief with the first injection.
The first symptoms that men generally see and improvement on are sleep and mood. They get better quality sleep and the feel more energetic and thus have an improved mood.
If you have an underlying medical issue it may take longer to see the positive effects of TRT.
In summary, testosterone replacement therapy takes time. It is a little different for everybody. Don't get discouraged if you don't feel well with the first injection. Your body needs to stay in a perfect balance and it takes time to alter that.
Testosterone replacement therapy does work. It can improve your low T symptoms. It is an individualized approach. Some negative effects may arise, and we will treat those if they do.
