Dear good day, what is the cost of the treatment, what are the payment methods, what type of treatment do you perform and how long does each type last?
Thanks,Marcos
Good morning, Marcos.

A greeting.
And what is the price of the diagnostic consultation? Is it for life?
Because if you take TRT, your own testosterone production is suppressed (something that doesn't bother me. But I would like to know if the prescriptions or how this thing works will be useful for my whole life or if in a year I will find myself without testosterone and without prescriptions)
Good morning, Jesus.
On this page you will find answers to all the questions you ask: https://www.clinicasdoctort.com/faq/
Best regards.
Good morning, I imagine that the use of exogenous testosterone will reduce endogenous production. Does this lead to a reduction in fertility? If so, what is the procedure to follow?
Good morning, Gonzalo. The use of exogenous testosterone under medical supervision and when necessary (in cases of hypogonadism) does not necessarily have a negative impact on endogenous production.
Kindest regards.
Good morning, I have read that once the treatment is finished the doctor will carry out a new analysis to evaluate if your hormones are at the right levels. Depending on the results of the analysis, the doctor will recommend that you continue with another treatment to stimulate the hormonal production of your system or rest for some time. Ok, so far so good. Now what I want to know is, will your testosterone levels fall again, returning to what they were before (due to age) and then I would have to do TRT again, or not? How exactly does it work once you finish the treatment? By the way, speaking in age, my age is 40.
Good morning, Edson. A Patient Care agent will contact you to advise you. Best regards.
