Two things have to be true. You have symptoms of testosterone deficiency (low libido, erectile changes, fatigue, loss of muscle or strength, low mood, loss of body hair) and your total testosterone is unequivocally low on two separate blood tests drawn fasting in the morning, when levels peak. The Endocrine Society guideline is explicit that both are required. One afternoon test, or a level in the low-normal range with symptoms that could be sleep, weight, thyroid or depression, is not a diagnosis. A clinic that offers to start you after a single draw, or from a symptom questionnaire, is selling a subscription. Testosterone is also not approved for low levels caused by aging alone, and the guideline advises against routinely treating every older man with a low number.

At a US med spa or men's health clinic, injectable testosterone cypionate programs run $150 to $250 a month including medication, supplies and check-ins, with initial labs of $100 to $300 and repeat labs two or three times in the first year. Gels and patches are $200 to $500 a month at cash prices, often less with insurance through a regular physician. Pellets cost $500 to $1,000 per insertion every three to six months. Add-on drugs some clinics bundle (hCG, anastrozole, enclomiphene) add $50 to $150 a month each and are not always necessary. Insurance often covers TRT when the diagnosis is documented; a med spa program is usually cash.

Injections (usually testosterone cypionate, self-injected weekly or twice weekly at home) are the cheapest, the most adjustable and the most common in clinics. Gels and patches are FDA-approved daily products that give steady levels but can transfer to a partner or child through skin contact. Pellets are implanted under the skin of the hip every three to six months and release slowly; they are convenient, but the dose cannot be adjusted once in, they are typically compounded rather than FDA-approved, and if the level runs too high you wait months for it to fall. Most endocrinologists start with injections or gel because they can be changed.

The best answer available is the 2023 TRAVERSE trial: 5,246 men aged 45 to 80 with hypogonadism and existing heart disease or high risk, randomized to testosterone gel or placebo, followed for nearly three years. There was no increase in heart attack, stroke or cardiovascular death. On that basis the FDA removed the cardiovascular language from the boxed warning in 2025. What the FDA added instead is a class-wide warning that testosterone raises blood pressure, so blood pressure gets checked at every visit. TRT also thickens the blood (raises hematocrit), which is the most common reason doses are lowered or stopped, and the trial did see more atrial fibrillation, blood clots and acute kidney injury in the testosterone group.

Yes, usually. External testosterone tells the brain to stop signalling the testes, so sperm production falls, often to zero, and can take months to a year to recover after stopping. If you may want children in the next few years, say so before you start: the guideline lists desire for near-term fertility as a reason not to use testosterone, and alternatives such as clomiphene or enclomiphene, which raise your own production instead, exist for that situation. Some clinics add hCG to preserve fertility, which helps but is not a guarantee.

Before starting: two morning total testosterone levels, hematocrit, PSA, and a prostate history, plus a conversation about sleep apnea, fertility and heart history. At three months and then yearly: testosterone level, hematocrit, PSA, blood pressure, and symptoms. A PSA rise of more than 1.4 above baseline or above 4.0 in the first year means a urologist, not a dose change. A clinic that does not draw a hematocrit is not monitoring you.

Testosterone injections, gels and patches are Health Canada-approved prescription drugs and are prescribed by physicians and nurse practitioners under the same diagnostic logic. Many Canadian men's health and wellness clinics run programs; provincial coverage usually pays for the drug when the diagnosis is documented, while clinic program fees are private. Pellet therapy is less common in Canada and, as in the US, relies on compounded product.
