Testosterone Replacement
Unlike Low-T centers that often do not perform adequate testing prior to starting therapy or have patients on unsafe medication regimens, at Gulf Coast Urology we offer the latest and most effective options in testosterone replacement therapy. Hormone replacement is dangerous if not performed and monitored by experts. It is worth the time and effort to have a regimen created and monitored by our team.
We offer TRT through subcutaneous self-injections at home, pellets, and gels. We do not offer in office injections at this time.
At the time of your consultation we will review any current lab results and order any additional testing required. After starting therapy, repeat labs will be done in 6-8 weeks. We will meet with you in office or via tele-health to see how you are feeling and assess for doseage adjustments. After that we will meet every 6 months with new labs.
In office testosterone pellet placement is performed by our Urologists for $500. Pellets are the easiest for the patient, have fewer side effects than injections, and do not require the hassle of having to fill a prescription every month. Most patients will require pellet insertion 3-4 times a year.

Testosterone is considered a controlled substance by the DEA. It can only be prescribed with a 30 day supply for 6 months. Currently tele-health appointments are allowed for refills, but this may change as prior to 2020 virtual prescribing was illegal.
