What it is

What is Testosterone Replacement Therapy?

How Testosterone Deficiency Is Evaluated

  • Compatible symptoms or signs
  • Two early-morning total testosterone measurements on separate days
  • Selected free testosterone, SHBG, or related testing when clinically useful
  • Evaluation for contributing or reversible causes
  • Discussion of fertility goals, benefits, risks, and alternatives

Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is used for men with symptoms or signs of testosterone deficiency and consistently low testosterone concentrations. Evaluation should confirm the diagnosis, look for contributing causes, and discuss benefits, risks, fertility goals, and alternatives before treatment. The goal is an appropriate physiologic range plus meaningful symptom response—not a supraphysiologic “optimization” target.

Symptoms and signs can include fatigue, reduced libido, erectile dysfunction, loss of muscle mass, increased body fat, low bone density, anemia, and mood or concentration changes. These symptoms have many possible causes, so laboratory confirmation and clinical evaluation both matter.

Signs You May Have Low Testosterone

Low testosterone doesn't just affect your gym performance—it impacts every aspect of your life. If you're experiencing several of these symptoms, it's time to check your levels.

  • Chronic fatigueExhaustion that doesn't improve with sleep.
  • Muscle lossLosing strength and muscle mass despite regular workouts.
  • Stubborn belly fatIncreased body fat, especially around the midsection, that doesn't respond to diet or exercise.
  • Low libidoDecreased interest in sex and difficulty maintaining erections.
  • Brain fogDifficulty concentrating, poor memory, and mental sluggishness that wasn't there before.
  • Mood changesIrritability, anxiety, or depression that seems to have no clear cause.
  • Poor recoveryTaking much longer to recover from workouts.
  • Sleep problemsDifficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking up feeling unrefreshed despite adequate rest.

The Highland difference

Why men in Fort Worth choose Highland for TRT

Not all TRT clinics are created equal. Here's what separates a physician-led longevity practice from the average testosterone clinic in Fort Worth.

01

Physician-led care, from diagnosis to follow-up

Highland Longevity’s medical director, Dr. Joshua Lindsley, DO, DABOM, is board-certified in Obesity Medicine by the American Board of Obesity Medicine and in Emergency Medicine. Our physician-led team brings diagnostic rigor and safety-focused follow-up to hormone therapy.

Most medical visits are with our nurse practitioner, within our physician-led clinical team.

02

Testing first, and more than one testosterone number

We check clinically indicated markers that may include total and free testosterone, SHBG, CBC/hematocrit, metabolic and cardiovascular markers, and PSA when appropriate. The panel and follow-up plan are individualized rather than limited to one testosterone number.

DEXA body composition, VO₂ max, and resting metabolic rate testing happen in our own clinic. Labs can be drawn at our office or a local Quest/Labcorp.

03

A protocol built around you, then re-tested

Your TRT dose, frequency, and delivery method are tailored to your labs, body composition, SHBG, and goals. We adjust based on how you feel and what your labs show — not a one-size-fits-all template.

Re-testing is part of the plan from the start, so every decision is made with your latest results in front of us.

Monitoring

How We Track Response Over Time

Response and timing vary. Follow-up is used to review symptoms, function, adherence, blood pressure, adverse effects, and laboratory response rather than promise a fixed result by a fixed week.

  1. Early follow-up

    Tolerability & adherence

    Review tolerability, adherence, questions, administration technique, and adverse effects.

  2. First laboratory reassessment

    Levels & safety monitoring

    Recheck testosterone and safety markers at a formulation-appropriate interval.

  3. Clinical response

    Symptoms & function

    Reassess symptoms, sexual function, energy, and body composition without assuming every symptom is testosterone-related.

  4. Ongoing shared decision

    Continue, adjust, or stop

    Continue, adjust, or stop according to benefit, risk, goals, and monitoring.

Safety & candidacy

Is TRT right for you?

Treatment starts with an honest conversation about safety, monitoring, and your plans for a family.

Is TRT safe? What are the risks?

TRT has potential benefits and risks and is not appropriate for every patient. Before treatment, we review fertility plans, hematocrit, prostate and breast history, sleep apnea, urinary symptoms, cardiovascular history, and other contraindications or precautions. Follow-up assesses symptom response, adverse effects, blood pressure, testosterone, CBC/hematocrit, and prostate monitoring when appropriate. Risks and monitoring vary by patient and formulation.

Will TRT affect my fertility?

Exogenous testosterone can substantially suppress sperm production and may cause azoospermia. Testosterone monotherapy should not be used in men pursuing current or near-term fertility. We discuss family-building goals before treatment and, when appropriate, consider alternatives or coordinate fertility-focused care; hCG or other medications do not guarantee preserved fertility.

Questions

TRT Frequently Asked Questions

Something we didn’t cover? Call (214) 444-9796 — a real person at our Fort Worth clinic will answer.

The AUA uses total testosterone below 300 ng/dL as a reasonable diagnostic cutoff, but a number alone does not establish testosterone deficiency. Diagnosis requires compatible symptoms or signs plus two early-morning total testosterone measurements on separate days. Free testosterone, SHBG, and other testing may help in selected cases, and the cause of low testosterone should be evaluated.

TRT duration is individualized. Some men continue because symptoms and low levels return when treatment stops, while endogenous testosterone and sperm recovery vary by cause, treatment duration, and patient. We reassess benefit, risk, goals, and whether ongoing treatment remains appropriate over time.

Our TRT programs include comprehensive lab work, physician consultations, protocol design, and ongoing monitoring. We offer transparent pricing with no hidden fees—you'll know exactly what to expect before you start. Testosterone medication costs vary by delivery method (injections are most cost-effective).

Dr. Lindsley is dual board-certified in Obesity Medicine and Emergency Medicine and brings diagnostic rigor and safety-focused follow-up to hormone therapy. We evaluate more than total testosterone, personalize treatment around your labs, symptoms, health history, and goals, and provide ongoing monitoring and support.

Yes. Texas allows testosterone to be prescribed via telehealth when an appropriate physician-patient relationship has been established. At Highland Longevity, we offer telehealth follow-up appointments for TRT patients who prefer the convenience of virtual visits. Your initial evaluation and lab work are typically done in person, with ongoing monitoring available via telehealth. This is ideal for patients in Southlake, Keller, Trophy Club, Roanoke, and other DFW communities.

When comparing TRT clinics, ask who diagnoses and manages care, how low testosterone is confirmed, whether causes and fertility are discussed, which safety markers are followed, and how treatment is reassessed. Highland Longevity combines physician-led evaluation, individualized dosing, broader metabolic and body-composition care, and ongoing monitoring.

Absolutely. While our clinic is in Fort Worth (Alliance area, near Golden Triangle Blvd), we treat men from across the DFW Metroplex — including Dallas, Southlake, Keller, Trophy Club, Colleyville, Westlake, Roanoke, Haslet, Grapevine, North Richland Hills, and Flower Mound. Many patients drive 30-45 minutes for their initial visit, then use telehealth for follow-ups. We also see patients from across Texas via our virtual clinic. If you're searching for a TRT or testosterone clinic near you, our Fort Worth practice is a short drive for most North Texas men.
