Many men suffer symptoms of low testosterone also called hypogonadism. This cause brittle bones (osteoporosis), low energy, lack of interest in sex, (low libido) as well as weight gain and sexual problems. We used to think giving men testosterone caused problems, especially prostate problems. The good news is that replacing testosterone in men is very safe in experienced hands.
If a man is found to have low t, there are 3 methods of replacing testosterone.
As oral testosterone is not safe for the liver, safer methods include gels and creams, injections and pellets.
Unfortunately, many men don’t absorb the gels properly and Dr. Bellman has found that injections and pellets are more effective. Pellets (Testopel) are tiny substances placed under the skin that slowly absorb and maintain excellent testosterone levels for 3-4 months.
