Personalized TRT Built Around Your Labs

Our Fort Collins TRT program is built on lab testing, symptom review, and personalized dosing — not a cookie-cutter protocol. We check your full hormone panel — testosterone, free testosterone, estradiol, SHBG, thyroid markers, hematocrit, and PSA — so we know what's driving your symptoms before we build your plan.

We support healthy testosterone levels while monitoring for side effects and adjusting your plan as your body responds. The goal is balance, not just higher numbers on a lab report.

  • Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) via injections or pellets
  • Enclomiphene for men who want fertility preservation or oral therapy
  • Comprehensive lab-based hormone evaluation
  • Regular follow-up and dose adjustment

Low Testosterone Symptoms in Men

Low testosterone often shows up gradually, so the symptoms can be easy to dismiss as “just getting older.” Common low testosterone symptoms in men include:

  • Persistent fatigue and lack of motivation
  • Decreased muscle mass and strength despite training
  • Low libido or erectile difficulties
  • Mood changes, irritability, or depression
  • Brain fog and reduced mental sharpness
  • Poor sleep quality
  • Weight gain, especially around the midsection
  • Reduced confidence or drive

These symptoms can have other causes too. That's why our Fort Collins providers always confirm low testosterone with a full lab panel before treating it. If your levels are normal, TRT isn't the answer — and we'll tell you that.

For a deeper breakdown of what each lab marker means, when treatment is appropriate, and how to read your testosterone numbers in context, see our complete guide to low testosterone symptoms and lab ranges.

TRT Options We Offer

Different men respond to different forms of testosterone therapy. We offer the full range of options so we can match the right approach to your goals, lifestyle, and labs.

Testosterone Injections

Weekly or biweekly injections (under the skin or into muscle) give precise dosing that's easy to adjust based on your labs and symptoms.

Testosterone Pellets

Pellets are placed under the skin in a short office visit and release a steady dose for several months. A fit for men who want low maintenance, though dosing is harder to adjust than with injections. Learn more about hormone pellet therapy in Fort Collins. Compare all three forms in pellets vs. injections vs. cream.

Enclomiphene Therapy

Enclomiphene is an oral option. It prompts your body to make more of its own testosterone instead of replacing it. It may fit men who want to protect fertility or avoid injections. It is a compounded medication that isn't FDA-approved, and your provider watches your labs throughout. Learn more about enclomiphene for men in Fort Collins.

If you've been searching for a testosterone clinic for men near Fort Collins, every option here starts the same way: an in-person visit, labs drawn on site, and a provider who adjusts your plan at each follow-up.

Some men also ask about medical weight loss or peptide therapy. Your provider can talk through whether either fits alongside hormone care, and in what order.

Who we see

We see men from Fort Collins, Loveland, Greeley, Windsor, Wellington, Timnath and nearby towns, at every starting point: early changes in your 30s, or questions about energy and drive in your 50s and 60s. Every plan is in person, with labs drawn on site and a provider who follows your care at each visit. If your levels are normal, we tell you that too.

Your first visit

Your first visit is an in-person appointment with a licensed provider at our Fort Collins clinic. Plan to talk through:

  • Your symptoms, such as low energy or low drive, and how they affect your days
  • Your health history, including any past testosterone or hormone treatment
  • The medications and supplements you take now
  • Whether you want to have children now or later, because that shapes which options fit
  • What you want help with most

If you decide to move forward, labs come next: bring recent results from your primary care provider, or we can draw them at that same visit for a fee (the list is below). At a complimentary follow-up, your provider reviews your lab results with you and explains the benefits, risks and alternatives of each option, so you can decide together.

What to bring: a list of your medications and supplements, any recent lab results, and your current prescription if you already use testosterone.

Labs we check before treatment

Hormone care at Peak Medical Wellness starts with a comprehensive hormone and wellness panel, from recent results or drawn in our office, so your provider can build a plan around your results:

  • Free and total testosterone, with SHBG
  • Estradiol
  • PSA
  • Thyroid panel (TSH, free T3, free T4)
  • Thyroid antibodies (TPO)
  • Complete blood count (CBC)
  • Comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP)
  • Lipid panel
  • Hemoglobin A1C
  • Vitamin D

Your provider reviews your results with you and may order additional labs based on your symptoms and history. Follow-up labs are drawn after you start treatment to check how you're responding.

How follow-up works

Hormone care is ongoing. After you start, labs are rechecked to see how you're responding, again after any dose change, and then on a regular schedule while you're in care. If you're on testosterone replacement, that includes your red blood cell count (hematocrit), checked before you start and on a schedule, and PSA based on your age; estradiol is checked when symptoms call for it. If you choose pellets, labs are rechecked about four to six weeks after insertion so the next dose is based on your numbers. At each follow-up, your provider asks how you're feeling and adjusts your plan. Everyone responds differently. If something doesn't feel right between visits, call the clinic at (970) 239-3595 rather than waiting for your next appointment.

Is testosterone therapy right for you?

A visit may make sense if:

  • Low energy or low drive has you wondering about your testosterone
  • A past lab test pointed to low testosterone
  • You want children now or later and want to understand which options keep sperm production going
  • You already use testosterone and want a provider who follows your labs

Testosterone replacement may not be the right fit if:

  • You're trying to conceive. Testosterone replacement lowers sperm production. For many men it recovers after stopping, but recovery can take up to two years and isn't guaranteed. The American Urological Association advises against starting it while you're trying to conceive. Your provider may talk with you about enclomiphene, a compounded oral option (not FDA-approved) that works with your body's own production and generally keeps sperm production going.
  • Your health history calls for caution. Testosterone replacement needs regular monitoring, and some health histories make it a poor fit. Your provider reviews your history and labs before recommending anything and tells you honestly if it isn't a fit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the symptoms of low testosterone in men?

Common low testosterone symptoms in men include fatigue, reduced muscle mass and strength, low libido, erectile difficulties, mood changes, depression, brain fog, poor sleep quality, weight gain (especially around the midsection), and decreased motivation. A blood test is the only way to confirm whether testosterone levels are actually low.

Do I need TRT?

Our providers assess symptoms and lab results to determine whether TRT is appropriate, rather than prescribing it without medical justification. Not everyone with low-normal testosterone needs treatment — symptoms and overall health picture matter as much as the numbers.

What is enclomiphene and how is it different from TRT?

Enclomiphene is an oral medication that stimulates your body to produce more of its own testosterone, rather than replacing testosterone directly like traditional TRT. It can be a good fit for men who want to preserve fertility, prefer a non-injectable option, or have moderately low testosterone. Side effects are generally mild but should always be monitored by a provider. Read more about enclomiphene for men in Fort Collins. Our enclomiphene vs. TRT guide compares the two in detail.

Will TRT affect fertility?

Yes — traditional TRT can impact fertility because it suppresses the body's own testosterone production. If fertility is a priority, we typically recommend enclomiphene or other fertility-preserving protocols instead. We discuss this clearly with every patient before starting treatment.

How soon will I feel better on TRT?

Everyone responds differently. Your provider reviews how you're feeling at each follow-up and adjusts your plan.

What forms of testosterone therapy are available?

We offer testosterone therapy through injections, pellets, and enclomiphene. Injections provide precise, adjustable dosing administered weekly or biweekly. Pellets are placed under the skin and release steadily for several months. Enclomiphene is an oral, compounded option for men who want to preserve fertility or prefer non-injectable therapy.

How often will I need to come in?

It depends on your treatment and how you're responding. Labs are rechecked after you start and after any dose change, then on a regular schedule while you're in care; pellet patients return when the next dose is due. Your provider sets the schedule with you.

Can hormone therapy be combined with weight loss or peptide services?

Sometimes. Your provider looks at the whole picture at your first visit and will say whether medical weight loss or peptide therapy makes sense alongside hormone care, and in what order.

What happens at the first visit?

You'll meet a licensed provider in person for a free consultation about your symptoms, health history and goals. If you decide to move forward, labs come first: bring recent results from your primary care provider, or we can draw them at that visit for a fee. Your provider then reviews the results with you at a second free visit and builds a plan around them.

What should I bring to my first visit?

A list of your medications and supplements, any recent lab results, and your current prescription if you already use testosterone.

Who will I see at my visits?

Men's hormone care at Peak Medical Wellness is directed by Cindy Dean, APRN, CNM, who reviews your labs and follows your care at every visit. You'll see the same team each time you come in.

What labs do you check before starting hormone therapy?

Before treatment, your provider looks at a comprehensive hormone and wellness panel: free and total testosterone with SHBG, estradiol, PSA, a thyroid panel (TSH, free T3, free T4) with thyroid antibodies (TPO), a complete blood count, a comprehensive metabolic panel, a lipid panel, hemoglobin A1C, and vitamin D. If you have recent results from your primary care provider, bring them, and your provider will tell you whether anything else is needed; otherwise we draw the panel in our office for a fee. Your provider reviews the results with you, may order additional labs based on your symptoms and history, and rechecks labs after you start treatment.

Do you accept HSA and FSA cards?

Yes. Peak Medical Wellness accepts HSA and FSA cards. What qualifies depends on your plan and IRS rules, so check with your plan administrator. We can provide itemized receipts.
