Questions to bring to your visit
- Which of these have I noticed, and for how long?
- Can my blood test be scheduled for the morning?
What happens at your visit with us?
Plan for a morning blood draw, since testosterone is usually checked early in the day, and write down each medicine and supplement you take, with the dose. Our urologists will ask about energy, mood, sex drive and sleep, and look at health issues such as blood pressure, diabetes and cholesterol that can lower testosterone.
When should I call us?
Call us if several of these signs have stuck around for a while, or if a past test came back low and nobody followed up. Low testosterone is confirmed with two low blood levels plus symptoms, so a single number is not the whole story.
How do our urologists approach this?
If treatment makes sense, our urologists explain the choices Advanced Urology offers, including gels, injections and small pellets set under the skin in the office. Lifestyle steps like sleep, exercise and weight loss are part of every plan.
Our urologists, physician assistants and nurse practitioners see adults from Alpharetta, Roswell, Milton, Crabapple and Mountain Park at our Alpharetta / Roswell office.
