Low testosterone levels can cause various signs and symptoms. As testosterone decreases, some men may experience reduced sex drive, erectile dysfunction, reduced muscle mass, increased body fat, loss of body and facial hair, decline in bone density, mood disturbances including depression, fatigue, poor concentration, insomnia and hot flashes.
Thyroid issues like hypothyroidism can also cause concerning symptoms such as fatigue, increased sensitivity to cold, constipation, dry skin, unexplained weight gain, pale or puffy face, hoarse voice, elevated blood cholesterol level, muscle weakness, tenderness and stiffness, pain, stiffness or swelling in joints, heavier than normal menstrual periods, thinning hair, slowed heart rate, depression and impaired memory.
Optimizing hormones in men, including testosterone and thyroid hormones, through replacement therapy provided by clinics like Hormone Harmony Clinic can help alleviate deficiencies and related symptoms.
Benefits of testosterone replacement therapy may include improved energy levels, sex drive and sexual function, lean muscle mass gains, fat loss, improved mood and cognitive function, better sleep quality, healthy cholesterol levels, increased bone density and strength, improved cardiovascular health, enhanced quality of life and slowed aging process.
Benefits of thyroid hormone replacement like levothyroxine can relieve hypothyroidism symptoms, support healthy metabolism, growth and development, regulate cholesterol, and prevent certain health issues like goiter.
Testosterone is the main sex hormone in men. Though testosterone levels decline naturally with age, dropping too low leads to concerning symptoms that negatively impact quality of life. Normal total testosterone levels generally range from 300 to 1,000 ng/dL for adult men. Free testosterone, bioavailable testosterone and other hormone levels provide additional useful information when testing.
The thyroid gland produces thyroid hormones thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) which regulate metabolism. Hypothyroidism is caused by underproduction and hyperthyroidism stems from overproduction. Normal TSH thyroid levels range between 0.4 and 4.0 mIU/L. Free T4, Free T3 and reverse T3 also help assess thyroid function.
Estrogen is often thought of as a female hormone, but men require balanced estrogen too. Declining testosterone can cause an estrogen excess in men, leading to gynecomastia and prostate issues. Assessing estrogen is important when optimizing hormones.

There are several potential reasons men experience declining testosterone, thyroid and other hormone levels.
Contributing factors may include:
Genetics also play a role. While some decline is expected with biological aging, an unhealthy lifestyle stacks the deck against healthy hormones. Managing risk factors within your control gives hormones their best chance.
Since hormones operate in a balanced network throughout the body, test, measure and track various hormones with blood work over time. This helps our physicians assess patient symptoms against lab results to determine appropriate treatment.
We analyze hormones including total testosterone, free testosterone, estradiol, IGF-1 growth hormone, TSH thyroid levels plus T4, T3 and others. Follow-up testing continues once treatment begins to monitor progress and make adjustments.
Testing at Hormone Harmony Clinic provides clearer visibility internally to detect otherwise hidden opportunities to getpatients feeling better faster through science-backed hormone corrections.
After thorough diagnostics and examination, Hormone Harmony Clinic customizes treatment plans based on each patient's unique health profile and hormone optimization goals to alleviate deficiencies and related symptoms to enhance vitality.
We offer various medical-grade treatment modalities, high-quality medications and innovative procedures. Testosterone can be replaced via injections, pellets, patches and gels dosed strategically to stabilize male hormone levels within target ranges. Thyroid issues may require prescription thyroid medications like levothyroxine.
Adjunctive therapies may also help correct hormonal imbalances naturally. Well-timed treatment gets patients feeling like themselves again!
While treatment occurs in our clinic, lifestyle outside impacts results. We educate patients regarding proper rest, nutrition, mental health management and regular exercise for optimal wellness.
