What is Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)? A Guide for Men in Harrisonburg, VA

Testosterone plays a vital role in a man’s physical, mental, and emotional health. When levels drop too low, it can affect everything from energy and focus to muscle strength and intimacy.

For men in Harrisonburg and across Virginia, Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) offers a safe, effective way to restore balance and vitality.


What is Testosterone Replacement Therapy?

TRT is a medical treatment that helps men restore testosterone levels when they are clinically low. It’s not about “bodybuilding” or chasing youth—it’s about correcting a medical deficiency that impacts quality of life.

At Stillpoint Integrative Psychiatry & Wellness in Harrisonburg, we approach TRT with a holistic perspective.

That means we look at your whole health—hormones, nutrition, sleep, stress, and mental well-being—to create a plan that fits your needs.


Who Might Benefit from TRT?

Many men don’t realize that low testosterone is more common than they think.

Symptoms can develop gradually and may be mistaken for stress, aging, or depression. You may want to consider TRT if you experience:

  • Constant fatigue or low energy
  • Decreased muscle mass or strength despite exercise
  • Reduced libido or sexual performance concerns
  • Mood changes, irritability, or depression
  • Trouble with focus or memory

A simple lab test can determine if your testosterone levels are low and whether TRT is right for you.


How is TRT Given?

There are several safe and effective ways to receive TRT, including:

  • Injections – most common, steady results
  • Topical creams or gels – daily use, convenient for some men
  • Pellets – placed under the skin for long-term release

At your first consultation, we’ll discuss the pros and cons of each option and decide which best matches your lifestyle.
