Changes in testosterone can affect much more than sexual function. Testosterone deficiency may contribute to changes in energy, libido, mood, motivation, muscle mass, body composition, and overall well-being. At NOVEL, testosterone evaluation begins with your symptoms and health history alongside appropriate laboratory testing and assessment for other factors that may be contributing to how you feel. When testosterone therapy is clinically appropriate, treatment is individualized and accompanied by ongoing laboratory and safety monitoring.
