Hormone Replacement Therapy for Men in Tampa, FL

What is Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)?

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a medical treatment designed to replenish and balance hormones that have declined due to age or other factors. For men, this often involves the administration of testosterone, the primary male hormone responsible for regulating various physiological functions. At Optimize Integrative Health, HRT is tailored to each individual’s unique biochemistry and health goals.
