What Is TRT?

Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) is a medical treatment designed to restore healthy testosterone levels in men experiencing symptoms of low testosterone (Low T). At Peak Health & Wellness in Hattiesburg, MS, we take a functional, whole-person approach to TRT that goes beyond just prescriptions. We look at the root causes of hormonal imbalance, assess lab values, and develop treatment plans based on your unique biology and lifestyle.

Understanding Testosterone

Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone responsible for regulating libido, energy, mood, muscle mass, bone density, and red blood cell production. Levels naturally decline with age—starting as early as your 30s—but some men experience a more dramatic drop, leading to symptoms like fatigue, depression, irritability, reduced sex drive, and difficulty gaining or maintaining muscle.

What Is TRT and How Does It Work?

TRT works by supplementing your body with testosterone through injections, gels, or creams. The goal is to bring your testosterone back into a healthy range so that you feel more like yourself again. However, TRT isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. At Peak Health & Wellness, we prioritize safe, evidence-based treatment and consistent lab monitoring to make sure your therapy is doing what it should—without unwanted side effects.

Our Approach at Peak Health & Wellness

We don’t just hand you a prescription and send you on your way. We take the time to understand your full health history, review lab results, and consider how other systems—thyroid, adrenal, metabolic—may be playing a role. We also talk diet, exercise, sleep, and stress to build a well-rounded plan that supports sustainable, long-term wellness.

Is TRT Right for You?

Not everyone with symptoms of Low T is a candidate for TRT. That’s why we start with a thorough consultation and lab work. If TRT is appropriate, we guide you every step of the way. If not, we’ll explore alternative strategies to support hormone balance naturally.
