Hormone Imbalance in Men
Hormonal imbalance in men can occur at any stage of life, but it most commonly begins around middle age as testosterone levels naturally decline. When testosterone drops significantly, men may experience a range of symptoms—from fatigue and mood changes to sexual dysfunction and difficulty sleeping. These symptoms, often grouped under the term andropause or “male menopause,” can impact quality of life and long-term health.
At True Precision Medicine, we specialize in helping men throughout the Pittsburgh area identify the root causes of hormone imbalance and develop personalized treatment plans to restore optimal health and vitality.
Understanding Andropause and Low Testosterone
Testosterone levels in men typically decline by about 2% per year starting in their 30s. By age 70, a man may have only one-third of the testosterone he had in his twenties. While some men write off these changes as “just aging,” untreated low testosterone can lead to more serious health risks, including:
- Cardiovascular disease
- Stroke
- High blood pressure
- Osteoporosis
If you’re struggling with low muscle mass, irritability, poor sleep, low libido, or persistent fatigue, it’s time to take action. True Precision Medicine offers diagnostic testing and cutting-edge therapies to help you feel like yourself again.

Erectile Dysfunction (ED)
and Hormonal Health
ED is more than a physical condition—it’s often a sign of hormone imbalance, particularly low testosterone, elevated prolactin, or estrogen dominance. Common causes of hormone-related ED include:
- Elevated cortisol from chronic stress
- High prolactin (often tied to thyroid issues)
- Low testosterone
- Estrogen dominance (can result from aging or liver issues)
ED can also be linked to circulation problems. Inadequate nitric oxide or plaque buildup in the arteries can restrict blood flow to the penis, making erections difficult to achieve or maintain.
Fortunately, hormone optimization can restore sexual function, improve confidence, and support overall health.

Thyroid Disorders in Men
Thyroid disorders—though more frequently diagnosed in women—affect many men and often go undetected. Thyroid imbalance can disrupt the body’s metabolism and contribute to:
- Low energy and fatigue
- Hair loss
- Weight gain
- Erectile dysfunction
- Mood changes
At True Precision Medicine, we analyze comprehensive lab panels to evaluate the balance of TSH, T3, and T4. We build treatment plans that address the underlying cause of dysfunction—not just the symptoms.
Adrenal Fatigue and Chronic Stress in Men
Chronic stress is one of the leading contributors to hormonal imbalance. Over time, stress can overwork the adrenal glands, leading to cortisol imbalances and a cascade of hormonal disruptions, including reduced DHEA and testosterone.
Signs of adrenal fatigue include:
- Burnout or exhaustion
- Mood swings
- Sleep issues
- Decreased immunity
- Weight gain
- Brain fog
We help men reduce stress, rebalance cortisol, and support adrenal health using an integrative approach—combining advanced nutraceuticals, hormone therapy, and lifestyle strategies.
Hormone Replacement Therapy for Men
Hormone replacement therapy is a simple and effective solution to low testosterone in men. Research has shown that men who pursue hormone therapy for low testosterone enjoy symptom relief as well as additional benefits, such as reduced risk of heart attack or stroke.
Testosterone pellet therapy is the leading choice of hormone therapy for men because it is easy to use, avoids the dosing errors commonly associated with other forms of testosterone therapy, and delivers bioidentical testosterone in a safe and highly optimized form.
Men on testosterone therapy report increased energy level, better weight management and enhanced sexual desire and performance. Studies of testosterone therapy back these testimonials, as well as suggest that adequate testosterone levels are linked to better bone density with aging and improvements in spatial reasoning among Alzheimer’s patients
