Low Testosterone Treatment in Savannah, GA
As men age, testosterone levels naturally decline — approximately 1% to 2% per year after age 30. While some decline is normal, significantly low testosterone (hypogonadism) can cause a range of symptoms that meaningfully affect quality of life. At Anew Med Spa & Clinic in Savannah, GA , we offer comprehensive testosterone evaluation and replacement therapy (TRT) for men experiencing the effects of low T.
Testosterone plays a critical role in muscle size and strength, bone density, sex drive, mood, energy levels, and sperm production. When levels fall too low, the consequences can extend well beyond the bedroom. If you’ve been feeling persistently fatigued, experiencing reduced libido, losing muscle mass, or noticing mood changes, low testosterone may be a contributing factor. Our provider will conduct a thorough assessment — including blood testing — and design a personalized TRT plan if appropriate. Call (912) 376-9496 to get started.

What Is the Role of Testosterone?
Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone, responsible for muscle development and strength, bone growth and density, libido and sexual performance, sperm production, mood regulation, and energy. Healthy testosterone levels are essential for overall male wellness at any age.
Symptoms of Low Testosterone in Adult Men
- Generalized weakness and low energy
- Depression or mood changes
- Problems with sexual function and libido
- Cognitive difficulties or brain fog
- Loss of muscle mass and strength
- Small testicles, reduced sperm count, or infertility
- Increased breast tissue (gynecomastia)
How TRT Works
TRT is a medically supervised treatment that restores blood testosterone levels to a healthy range, reversing many of the symptoms associated with low T. Our provider will confirm the diagnosis through blood testing (testosterone levels below 300 ng/dl are generally considered low per the American Urological Association) and a complete evaluation before prescribing treatment. TRT is available in injectable, topical, patch, and pellet forms.
Types of Testosterone Treatments We Offer
- Injectable testosterone (most common for consistent results)
- Topical creams and gels
- Skin patches
What to Expect from TRT
Most men begin noticing improvements in energy, mood, and libido within a few weeks of starting treatment, though full physical changes may take 4 weeks to several months. TRT is typically a long-term commitment — ongoing monitoring with blood tests every 6 to 12 months ensures safe and effective management.
FAQs About Low Testosterone
How is low testosterone diagnosed?
Diagnosis requires two separate blood draws (usually taken before noon, when levels are highest) confirming testosterone below 300 ng/dl, along with symptoms consistent with hypogonadism. Our provider may also order imaging studies and additional hormone tests to determine the underlying cause.
What are the most common symptoms of low testosterone?
Low T commonly presents as fatigue, low libido, erectile dysfunction, mood changes, reduced muscle mass, increased body fat, and cognitive changes. These symptoms are nonspecific and may have multiple causes, which is why proper testing is essential.
Who is a candidate for testosterone replacement therapy?
Men who have confirmed low testosterone via blood testing and are experiencing related symptoms are candidates for TRT. Your provider will review your full health history to ensure TRT is safe and appropriate for you.
How is TRT administered?
TRT can be administered via injection, topical cream or gel, transdermal patch, or subcutaneous pellet. Our provider will recommend the delivery method that best aligns with your lifestyle and clinical needs.
How long does it take to see results from TRT?
Improvements in mood, energy, and libido can often be noticed within 2 to 4 weeks. Physical changes such as muscle gain and fat loss may take 3 to 6 months of consistent treatment.
Are there any risks associated with TRT?
TRT is not recommended for men with prostate concerns or normal testosterone levels for their age group. Your provider will discuss potential risks during your consultation and monitor your health with regular blood tests throughout treatment.
Can low testosterone cause erectile dysfunction?
Yes — low testosterone is one of several factors that can contribute to ED. If you’re experiencing both conditions, our team can address them together. Learn more on our erectile dysfunction page.
