Is hormone therapy right for You?

Hormone therapy is not suitable for everyone. At BIOV8, treatment is only prescribed after proper diagnosis and consideration of your individual circumstances. All therapies are prescribed by AHPRA-registered doctors in line with TGA regulations.

What is hormone therapy?

Hormone therapy is a treatment prescribed to men who have clinically diagnosed low testosterone levels (also known as hypogonadism). It aims to restore testosterone to normal levels to support physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. ormone therapy  is only offered following proper diagnosis and medical assessment.

What are the symptoms of low testosterone?

Some men with low testosterone may experience:

  • Fatigue or reduced energy
  • Decreased libido or sexual performance
  • Difficulty with focus or memory
  • Mood changes such as irritability or low motivation
  • Loss of muscle mass or increased body fat

These symptoms can have multiple causes, so it’s important to consult a doctor for proper evaluation.


How is low testosterone diagnosed?

Low testosterone is diagnosed through a combination of symptom assessment and pathology testing (blood tests). Blood is usually taken in the morning to ensure accurate hormone level readings.

Do I need a referral?

No referral is needed. You can book directly with a BIOV8 doctor through our platform for an initial telehealth consultation.

Is hormone therapy safe?

All medical treatments carry risks and benefits. Hormone therapy  is only prescribed if it's considered safe and appropriate for your individual health needs. Ongoing monitoring through follow-up appointments and pathology testing is an essential part of any TRT program.

What types of testosterone treatment are available?

Treatment options may include topical gels, injections, or other forms — but the most appropriate option will depend on your specific needs and doctor’s recommendation. BIOV8 does not promote or advertise specific products; all treatments are discussed as part of a private consultation with your doctor.

Can I get hormone therapy without testing?

No. Hormone therapy is only prescribed after a confirmed diagnosis of testosterone deficiency through clinical evaluation and blood tests. This ensures treatment is safe, legal, and medically appropriate.

Can I stop treatment at any time?

Yes, but it’s important to discuss this with your doctor. Stopping hormone therapy suddenly without medical supervision may lead to unwanted side effects. Your doctor will help you transition safely if needed.

What risks & considerations should I be aware of?

While hormone therapy offers numerous benefits, it is essential to consider potential risks and individual patient factors:

  • Prostate Health: Concerns have been raised regarding hormone therapy's impact on prostate health. However, current evidence does not conclusively link hormone therapy to an increased risk of prostate cancer.

  • Cardiovascular Risks: The effect of hormone therapy on cardiovascular health remains a topic of ongoing research, with studies yielding mixed results. Clinicians should evaluate individual risk factors when considering hormone therapy.

  • Individualised Treatment: hormone therapy should be tailored to each patient's unique clinical profile, with regular monitoring to assess efficacy and detect potential adverse effects.

Hormone therapy  can offer significant benefits for men with clinically diagnosed hypogonadism, including improvements in sexual function, mood, musculoskeletal health, and metabolic parameters. However, careful patient selection, individualised treatment plans, and ongoing monitoring are crucial to maximise benefits and minimise potential risks. As research continues to evolve, clinicians must stay informed to provide evidence-based care to their patients.
