TRT (Testosterone Replacement Therapy)
Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) is becoming an important option in the field of hormone health and anti-aging medicine. As research grows, we now understand how declining testosterone levels affect both men and women — and how restoring balance can significantly improve quality of life.
Low testosterone can cause fatigue, low libido, mood changes, and reduced muscle strength. The good news is that with accurate testing and personalized treatment, testosterone therapy in Vancouver is a safe and effective way to restore energy, vitality, and overall well-being.
