VA Database Study Adds Big Benefits to Testosterone Therapy in Men

In August, 2015, Dr. Rajat Barua and colleagues, along with the Veterans Administration released data on over 83,000 male Veterans documented with low-Testosterone, all age 50 or above. The men were divided into three groups:

Group 1: Those who were treated to the point where their total testosterone levels returned to “normal.”

Group 2: Those who were treated but never reached “normal” levels.

Group 3.: Those who were not treated

Average follow-up across the groups ranged from 4.6 – 6.2 years… And here’s what they found: In a comparison between Group 1 and Group 3, Group 1 men were 56% less likely to die during the follow-up period, 24% less likely to suffer a heart attack, and 36% less likely to have a stroke. The comparison between Group 1 & 2 was similar with lower percentages.

These figures help prove on a large stage what many of the top Hormone Replacement Therapy focused practitioners in the country already know and teach.

To increase safety and effectiveness, we only use Bio-Identical Hormones for our treatment, and treat each case as an individual one. Testosterone Replacement Therapy is not the only option for males with “Low-T” visit our Hormone Replacement Therapy page for Males for more information.
