Men’s Testosterone Replacement Therapy

Did you know that many large men’s health companies only check 4-5 lab values before starting patients on TRT? Many of these patients find themselves with inappropriate testosterone levels and many side effects that are then covered up by estrogen blockers or more medications. Our initial set of labs is a comprehensive panel that not only includes your testosterone levels but other precursor hormones to make sure we get you dialed in and provide the best care possible. 

Our goal is to optimize your testosterone level for your body.  We will treat your symptoms with your overall health in mind.

If you are regularly experiencing some or all low-T symptoms, book your comprehensive exam and be tested for low testosterone.

In addition to testosterone replacement: Your provider will ask you questions about your symptoms, lifestyle, and medical history  at your  initial appointment and include evaluation of testosterone, thyroid, insulin resistance, and other important aspects of men’s health and wellness to evaluate and additional underlying causes of your symptoms.

Our providers will only treat patients after an in depth medical evaluation paired with testing confirms there is a need for treatment.

Studies show time and time again that hormone therapy is safe if done properly. Much of the stigma that comes from hormone replacement, was perpetuated by non medically managed TRT use.

Providers at Venture Wellness carefully monitor the patient and tailor an individualized program to include follow up lab work and visits to manage any unwanted side effects. We partner with trusted pharmacies to ensure quality ingredients and prescribe dialed in doses using the most up to date evidence for each individual patient.

The cost of treatment varies based on the person’s needs and the type of treatment deemed necessary by our provider. The first consultation is a flat rate of and includes your initial consultation, medical evaluation, and lab work.

After your initial consultation, if you are eligible and choose to move forward with TRT, we offer transparent and comprehensive packages billed monthly or quarterly. Our packages are all inclusive with medication, injection supplies, direct messaging with your provider, and follow up appointments to give you the the best value with great affordability available for TRT in Virginia.

When adding additional services or medications such as human growth hormone, semaglutide, or tirzepatide, the cost can vary depending on the individual treatment plan and length of treatment. You will receive a quote for services prior to starting treatment.

The time it takes for men to see noticeable results varies according to their pre-existing T levels and how quickly their body metabolizes the medication.

Most patient’s begin to see results in 2-3 weeks after starting treatment. Some of the first benefits reported by TRT patients are increased energy, focus, and better memory.

The process is not instant and as the body needs to builds up enough supplemental testosterone to show results. When first starting treatment, your T levels will be checked every 3 months or with each dosage adjustment, whichever comes first. For many men it may take up to 6 months to achieve the full benefit of TRT.

Hormone injections are the most effective method of administration for this type of therapy because it allows for more precise dosage control and less sporadic hormonal absorption.

We understand that some patients are uncomfortable with the idea of injections. Men who only require a low dose hormone regimen may be good candidates for the creams or gels, these are prescribed only after careful consideration of the patient’s individual needs.

Yes. A healthy lifestyle, including a healthy diet, regular exercise (especially weight training), maintaining a healthy weight, and getting enough quality sleep will all help to increase testosterone levels. It’s also important to avoid unnecessary exposure to endocrine disruptors in plastics, foods, and personal care products. Some medications and substances such as marijuana, opiates, and alcohol cause lower testosterone

No. Men stop testosterone for various reasons such as active duty military deployments, relocation, or financial changes.

If you stop testosterone, your body will start producing it on its own again, but your levels may not be as high as they were while on TRT. Many men simply feel better when their testosterone is at a higher level than what their body produces naturally. You can always restart therapy when the time is right again.

At Venture Wellness, we prioritize offering the highest-quality, patient-centered care. Our decision not to accept insurance for Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective experience for our patients. Here’s why:

1. Unrestricted Access to Tailored Care
   Insurance companies often impose strict guidelines and limitations on TRT, which can result in one-size-fits-all solutions that may not meet your specific needs. By working outside of insurance, we can provide fully customized care, including precise dosing, advanced treatment options, and frequent follow-ups, ensuring you get the best possible results.
2. More Time to Focus on You
   In the traditional insurance model, visits are often rushed to meet insurance company quotas. At Venture Wellness, we take the time to understand your goals, monitor your progress, and adjust your treatment plan as needed. This level of attention is key to achieving optimal outcomes with TRT.
3. Transparency in Costs
   Without insurance dictating fees, we provide clear, upfront pricing for our services. There are no hidden charges or unexpected bills, giving you complete control over your care.
4. Insurance for Lab Work
   We understand the importance of affordability, which is why you can use your insurance for your comprehensive lab panels if coverage is available. This ensures you receive high-quality, necessary testing without unnecessary out-of-pocket expenses.

Our goal is to provide you with expert care, innovative treatment options, and the time and attention you deserve. By stepping outside of the insurance model, we focus entirely on what matters most—your health and wellness.
