Why Low-T Is a Big Deal for Utah Guys
If your energy has tanked faster than a Jazz fourth-quarter lead, you’re not alone. Up to 30% of men over 40 experience clinically low testosterone, and high-altitude living along the Wasatch Front can amplify fatigue and mood swings. Pair that with modern stress and you’ve got a perfect storm for Low-T.
How Testosterone + HCG Therapy Works
Testosterone cypionate or enanthate replaces what your testicles no longer make, while human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) cues your body to keep producing its own supply. Think of HCG as the “don’t shut down” signal to your testes—maintaining fertility, testicular volume, and a more natural hormone rhythm.

Safety First: Labs & Monitoring
At Routine Health & Hormone we start with a baseline hormone panel, CBC, PSA, and hematocrit, followed by re-tests every 8–12 weeks. Our providers titrate doses to keep you in the optimal range (600–900 ng/dL) while preventing polycythemia.
Common Questions from Our Clients
- “Will I need injections forever?” Maybe. Some men cycle off once lifestyle factors improve, but most maintain therapy for sustained benefits.
- “Can I travel with my meds?” Yes—TSA allows prescription injectables. We’ll provide documentation for you.
- “What about side-effects?” Acne, water retention, or mild mood swings occur in <10% of our patients and usually resolve with dose tweaks or aromatase inhibitors.
