Hormone Therapy – Frequently Asked Questions

Florida Coast Wellness – Testosterone & Hormone Optimization

Who is eligible for testosterone therapy?

Men over 18 who reside in Florida and show symptoms of low testosterone (such as fatigue, low libido, muscle loss, or mood changes) may qualify. Eligibility is confirmed through a comprehensive lab panel and medical consultation.

What are estrogen blockers, and why might I need them?

Estrogen blockers like anastrozole are sometimes used alongside testosterone therapy to help prevent estrogen-related side effects such as water retention, mood swings, or gynecomastia. Your provider will determine if this is necessary for you.

What add-ons are available with hormone therapy?

Optional treatments not included in the base monthly price may include:

  • Peptides (e.g., Sermorelin, NAD+, BPC-157, Ipamorelin)
  • HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin)
  • DHEA
  • B12, MIC, and other injectable vitamins

Add-ons are recommended based on your lab results and treatment goals.

Who should not take testosterone therapy?

Testosterone therapy may not be appropriate for individuals who:

  • Have prostate or breast cancer
  • Have uncontrolled heart conditions
