Testosterone Replacement Therapy and complete hormone optimization for men and women who demand more from their biology. Lab-driven. Physician-supervised. Precision-dosed.
The Science
Testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, DHEA, cortisol — these aren’t just reproductive hormones. They regulate energy, metabolism, muscle mass, cognitive function, mood, sleep, and longevity. When they fall out of range, everything suffers. When they’re optimized, everything improves.
At Contour Medical, we don’t treat to “normal.” We treat to optimal — the levels at which you perform, feel, and look your absolute best.
Your Protocol
Total & free testosterone, estradiol, LH, FSH, SHBG, thyroid, cortisol, CBC, metabolic panel — a full hormonal picture before we prescribe anything.
Your physician reviews your labs, symptoms, history, and goals. We explain exactly what your numbers mean and what optimal looks like for you.
A fully individualized hormone protocol — medication, dose, delivery method, and adjunct therapies — designed around your biology, not a template.
Follow-up labs every 6–8 weeks. Dose adjustments. Symptom tracking. We optimize continuously until you reach and maintain peak performance.
“My testosterone was at 280 — technically in range, but I felt like I was 80 years old at 44. Contour brought me to 850 in 10 weeks. I’m sleeping through the night, training harder than I did at 30, and my wife noticed the difference before I did. This isn’t a supplement. This is medicine that actually works.”
What is TRT?
Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) is a medical treatment that restores testosterone to a healthy range for men with confirmed testosterone deficiency. TRT can be appropriate for patients with confirmed testosterone deficiency when prescribed and monitored by a qualified medical provider.
What are the signs of low testosterone?
Common symptoms include persistent fatigue, low sex drive, difficulty building or maintaining muscle, reduced motivation, brain fog, and mood changes. These symptoms can overlap with other conditions, so lab testing is required to confirm a diagnosis.
How do I know if hormone optimization is right for me?
The only reliable way to know is through comprehensive lab testing paired with a review of your symptoms and health history. Your consultation with our medical provider starts there, before any treatment plan is recommended.
What does a TRT program at Contour Medical Clinic include?
A typical program includes an initial consultation, baseline hormone labs, a personalized treatment plan from our medical provider, and scheduled follow-up labs to monitor your response and adjust dosing as needed.
When might I start noticing changes?
Some patients report improvements in energy or mood within the first few weeks, while changes in body composition and libido tend to develop more gradually over several months. Timelines vary based on starting hormone levels, dose, and individual response.
What are the risks of TRT, and how is it monitored?
TRT carries potential risks, including changes in red blood cell counts (hematocrit), fluid retention, acne, and effects on fertility, which is why ongoing lab monitoring is a required part of every program. Your provider adjusts your plan based on these results to help manage risk over time.
Do you offer hormone optimization for women?
Yes. We offer physician-supervised hormone therapy for women navigating perimenopause, menopause, or other hormone-related symptoms, with treatment plans built around female hormone physiology and individual lab results.
What labs are used to evaluate hormone levels?
Lab panels are individualized, but commonly include total and free testosterone, estradiol, complete blood count, PSA (for men), and a metabolic panel. Your provider determines the exact panel based on your history and treatment goals — not every patient receives the identical set of labs.
How much does TRT cost, and how does pricing work?
Cost depends on your specific protocol, required labs, and monitoring schedule. Visit our Pricing page for general ranges, or book a consultation for a personalized quote based on your treatment plan.
Do I need a prescription and consultation before starting?
Yes. TRT is a prescription medication, and treatment can only begin after a consultation and lab review confirm it's an appropriate and safe option for you.
Does TRT affect fertility?
Testosterone therapy can suppress natural sperm production in some patients, which is an important consideration for men who want to preserve fertility. This is discussed during your consultation, and alternative or adjunct approaches may be considered when fertility is a priority.
What is the connection between TRT and hematocrit?
TRT can increase red blood cell production, which raises hematocrit levels in some patients. Because elevated hematocrit carries health risks, it's monitored through regular bloodwork, and your provider may adjust your dose or treatment frequency if levels rise outside a safe range.
What's the difference between total and free testosterone?
Total testosterone measures all the testosterone in your blood, including hormone that's bound to proteins and unavailable for use by your body. Free testosterone measures only the unbound, biologically active portion — both figures help your provider get a complete picture of your hormone status.
How often are labs monitored during treatment?
Monitoring frequency is individualized based on your treatment plan, starting dose, and how your body responds. Your provider will outline a specific follow-up lab schedule as part of your personalized program.
