Restore Energy, Vitality, and Performance with Physician-Supervised TRT
Andropause is the gradual decline in testosterone which occurs in men as they age. It often begins in the late 30s or early 40s. It can be more subtle than what women experience with menopause, but some of the same symptoms will be seen. These symptoms impact every aspect of life from energy and mood to body composition and performance capacity. At Towsen Clinic, Dr. Towsen provides evidence-based testosterone replacement therapy that restores optimal hormone levels and transforms how you feel.
Testosterone production naturally decreases with age, typically declining 1-2% annually after age 30. However, many people experience more dramatic drops due to stress, lifestyle factors, medical conditions, or other hormonal imbalances.
Experiencing multiple symptoms? Low testosterone may be the underlying cause.

Low testosterone in men is increasingly common, affecting an estimated 40% of men over 45. Symptoms often develop gradually, making them easy to dismiss as "just getting older."
Dr. Towsen carefully monitors:
Proper medical supervision ensures safe, effective optimization.
Some patients notice initial energy improvements, though many don't see changes yet.
Energy, mood, and motivation improvements become noticeable. Sleep quality often improves.
Body composition changes begin (increased muscle, decreased fat). Libido and sexual function improve. Mental clarity enhances.
Significant improvements in muscle mass, strength, body composition, and overall vitality. Some patients notice more change in this window than in the first month.
Continued optimization with sustained energy, performance, and vitality. Many patients tell us they feel more like themselves again.
Results vary based on individual factors, but most patients notice significant improvements within 3 months.
Testosterone therapy is FDA approved for men with low testosterone caused by certain medical conditions, and it has risks. The label covers effects on red blood cells, fertility and the heart. We monitor your labs throughout. Dr. Towsen's medical expertise ensures appropriate candidate selection and ongoing monitoring.
Dr. Towsen evaluates your complete medical history to ensure TRT is safe and appropriate for you.
Over-the-counter testosterone boosters rarely produce meaningful results. Here's why:
If your body isn't producing adequate testosterone, no supplement can create it. Actual hormone replacement is required.
Most supplements lack clinical evidence and contain undisclosed ingredients or ineffective doses.
Without lab testing and medical supervision, you can't know if supplements are working or causing problems.
TRT provides actual hormones in precise, physician-monitored doses—creating real, measurable results.
Dr. Towsen determines candidacy through comprehensive evaluation during your consultation.
Andropause is the slow drop in testosterone that can come with age. Many men first notice low energy, a lower sex drive or a change in mood. Our guide, what is andropause, walks through the signs and the blood tests.
A men's health visit at our West Chester office is for men who feel that change and want answers from lab work. We look at your hormones, your weight and how your body performs. See your primary care doctor for routine screenings, since we do not replace that care.
Your first visit is 60 to 90 minutes with Dr. Towsen and costs $295. We talk through your symptoms and your history, then order labs that include total and free testosterone. Testosterone is FDA approved for men with low testosterone caused by certain medical conditions, so your labs come before any plan.
Testosterone replacement therapy has decades of clinical research supporting its safety and efficacy. Studies consistently demonstrate:
Significant improvements in energy, mood, and quality of life
Enhanced body composition (increased muscle, decreased fat)
Improved metabolic markers and insulin sensitivity
Reduced cardiovascular risk when properly managed
Enhanced bone density and reduced fracture risk
Improved sexual function and libido
Recent research has debunked old myths about TRT causing cardiovascular problems—properly administered TRT actually supports cardiovascular health.

Most patients continue TRT indefinitely because it addresses age-related decline that doesn't reverse. However, you can discontinue at any time under medical supervision.
TRT can reduce sperm production in men. If fertility is a concern, Dr. Towsen can recommend alternative protocols using HCG and other medications.
Testosterone therapy has been studied for decades. It has risks, including effects on red blood cells, fertility and the heart. We check your labs before you start and at regular points after.
Your body's natural production is already low. That's why you need TRT. If you stop, you return to your pre-treatment baseline.
You get a full medical workup, a look at what is driving the problem, a protocol built for you, and a physician watching it.

Peptides are short chains of amino acids that signal your body to perform specific
functions—from healing injuries to optimizing metabolism to enhancing recovery
Most of these peptides are not FDA approved, and the long term safety data is thin. We go over the known risks with you, we monitor you while you are on them, and we stop if something does not look right.
It depends on the peptide. A few, such as semaglutide, are FDA approved medicines, and most others are not.
Federal rules also limit which peptides a pharmacy may compound, and those rules changed several times from 2023 to 2026. Dr. Towsen checks where a peptide stands before she prescribes it.
Most peptides are given as a small injection under the skin, with a thin needle like an insulin needle. Patients usually give themselves the injections at home.
Yes. Dr. Towsen often creates “peptide stacks” combining multiple peptides for synergistic
benefits.
Duration depends on your goals. Some protocols are short-term (injury recovery: 4 to 12
weeks), while others provide ongoing benefits (performance optimization, metabolic health)
