Feel healthier, happier and stronger with a tailored testosterone treatment plan designed by our expert TRT doctors.
TRT is used to treat men with low testosterone levels, which can cause a range of life-debilitating symptoms. It works by supplementing the hormone, helping restore you to optimal body functions and overall well-being.
The following symptoms could be a sign of low testosterone.
Testosterone is the predominantly male sex hormone which is responsible for male development through puberty. It also has important roles throughout the body and affects physical, mental and behavioural factors.
There are a long list of benefits from using TRT including increased energy, mood, muscle mass, strength and cognition, as well as better sleep quality, more assertiveness and improved bone density.
Low testosterone is a combination of testosterone levels and symptoms. When men get symptoms it is very individual and related to genetic factors such as androgen receptor type and other biomarkers. Generally, men with a total testosterone above 14-15nmol/L and a free testosterone above 0.225-0.3nmol/L will not have low testosterone.
Undergoing testosterone replacement therapy is completely safe if you’re treated by a specialist doctor who regularly monitors your testosterone levels along with any side effects. At VOY we regularly monitor your blood results and symptoms to identify any rare issues you may be having so that we can manage them early.
As with all medications, some people may experience side effects - however, they’re easily controlled and generally avoided with sensible doses and regular monitoring. Some possible minor side effects include fluid retention, acne, and hair loss. More severe potential side effects include gynaecomastia (the growth of breast tissue), worsening of existing sleep apnea, increased cholesterol levels, decreased sperm count, and an increased number of red blood cells which may increase your risk of blood clots or a worsening of benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate). However, these conditions are rare and can be mostly avoided or controlled through regular monitoring and other medications.
In order to keep side effects to a minimum you’ll check in to monitor your testosterone levels and any potential side effects. If you have any concerns or questions, get in touch with our clinicians - it’s free!
It is legal to purchase TRT online in the UK when buying through a private clinic such as VOY.
Answer 10 quick questions to assess if low testosterone could be holding you back.
TRT can be administered through various methods, including injections, tablets and creams. Our expert, best-in-class TRT clinicians will advise based on your needs and preferences.
Everyone's medical history is different so our doctor will prescribe a medication that works specifically for you. Successful hormone therapy involves getting just the right dose by the right delivery method for your individual needs. Testosterone replacement therapy involves taking prescribed testosterone medication in the form of injections, pills, patches, creams, and testosterone pellets (placed under the skin).
Testosterone injections are the most common form of medication as they are convenient and most effective for the majority of men.
Our initial blood test will establish whether you have a testosterone deficiency. If the first test shows that you have low testosterone you’ll need to take our second, more comprehensive blood test if you’d like to start TRT - this is due to UK regulations. If both tests show that you have low T levels, you’ll discuss suitable treatment options with one of our doctors and during an in-depth consultation before starting treatment.
The time taken to see results depends on your individual response and the medication you are taking. Most men start to see benefits within the first 6 weeks to 3 months. We will support you all the way with advice and regular blood testing to ensure any changes that are required to your protocol are made early in your journey.
We usually recommend a 3-6 month trial of treatment, after which you may wish to stop if you don’t see the results you wanted. At VOY we use the best treatments that maintain your testicular function and make stopping your treatment easier, if required for any reason in the future.
