Who is eligible for TRT ? What’s the criteria ?
AlphaMD's Answer
Anyone who is suffering from hypogonadal symptoms is eligible for TRT. These can be caused by environmental factors (everyone in the USA has 30% less Testosterone in them at the same ages their grandfathers did), genetics, cancer, accidents, and will always happen with age.
From that list, most of the time it is a combination of lifestyle, environmental factors, and age coming together.
Reviewing with a patient their current hormone levels and ensuring there is no underlying conditions that may be causing these symptoms nor do they have any risk factors for treatment, it is safe to go forward with treatment.
Because of that there is no hard and fast rule for age, hormone numbers, or situations to treat or to not treat a patient as long as they have symptoms, as each person is different.
