Expanding HRT for Men in 2025
While Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) gets thespotlight, many men can benefit from a broader hormone therapy approach.Estrogen balance, cortisol, DHEA, and thyroid function all play a role in howmen feel and perform.
How Does HRT Differ from TRT?
HRT for men may combine testosterone with estradiolregulation, thyroid hormone (T3/T4), or DHEA. As men age,these other hormones can decline too, leading to symptoms like brain fog, lowenergy, and poor recovery.
Hormones to Monitor:
- Estradiol (E2): Vital for joint health, libido, and heart protection.
- Thyroid (T3/T4): Controls metabolism, energy, and mental clarity.
- DHEA: Supports adrenal health and testosterone conversion.
Key Study:
- Journal of Men's Health 2024: Men with combined hormone optimization (T + thyroid + DHEA) saw 30% improvement in cognitive function and 25% better metabolic health.
- Endocrine Reviews 2023: Men with balanced estradiol levels had lower cardiovascular risks compared to those with too low or too high levels.
