What Is The Best Treatment For Low Testosterone? – Popdust
Low testosterone levels are a very common problem for men - approximately 25 million men in the US suffer from it. Testosterone levels start to decline in men every year after 30. It can decrease between 19% and 39% in older men, which is a substantial amount.
Lower testosterone can cause low energy, low muscle mass, erectile dysfunction, decreased sex drive, brain fog, and more.
Many online healthcare companies have emerged with testosterone level tests to help men figure out if they have low testosterone levels and how to tackle their issues as a result. Vault health, Roman, My Lab Box, and Lets Get Checked seem to be the main contenders.
Our editors compared and contrasted these services to see which one was the best, so if you think you may be suffering from low testosterone, you'll know where to go for help.
Vault Health
With Vault, a medical professional comes to your home to get a blood sample to test. From there, you will be contacted virtually via video call or phone call and based on your results, they will recommend a personalized treatment plan for you. The testosterone treatment can come in many forms such as pills, subcutaneous self-injections, and creams - it's not a one size fits all treatment.
Once you and your Vault provider decide on a treatment it is regularly mailed directly to your door in discreet packaging. You'll receive ongoing support including a check in 6 weeks after starting treatment, and you have 24/7 access to medical practitioners if you have any questions.
Roman
Roman is a well known online healthcare company that treats sexual health problems caused by lowering testosterone levels. They have treatments for some STDs and ED, and have a supplement for testosterone support. This supplement is a hormone free formula and is not meant for men who have been diagnosed with low testosterone, it supports overall health but it is not a solution. It includes ingredients such as Zinc, Magnesium, and Vitamin D3 that help "support the body's natural function." Zinc can raise testosterone a bit, but the other ingredients have not been shown to raise testosterone.
This supplement is available on their website for anyone to buy as an everyday supplement. This testosterone support supplement is backed by doctors, but there are no personal calls or ongoing support that come with it. It is not a personalized treatment like Vault.
My Lab Box
My Lab Box specializes in at home STD tests that you can order online, and they also have a testosterone test. This test is a pain free test you can get delivered to your door. The test takes just 5 minutes, and you get your lab results in 2-5 days. This will let you know if you have low testosterone or not. However, from there, you will have to seek your own treatment as My Lab Box only provides tests.
Let's Get Checked
Let's Get Checked offers a very similar service to My Lab Box. It is a company that you can order tests you can do from your home. They also have a testosterone test. However, Lets Get Checked provides you with more information about how to do the test on their site, stating that a blood sample is collected with a finger prick. You can also subscribe to test your testosterone every 3 months at a 30% discount. Like My Lab box, Lets Get Checked does not offer any treatment plans for low testosterone.
Overall Verdict
Overall, we felt the best service by far is Vault health.
Lets Get Checked and My Lab Box are both affordable services at only $69 for a test. If you think it's unlikely that you have low testosterone but would like to test just for peace of mind, perhaps one of these would be the service for you - but if you do in fact have low testosterone, you will have to seek your own treatment with a doctor. However, they only check total testosterone, whereas Vault checks a whole panel to really evaluate your true hormone status.
Roman's testosterone treatment is essentially a supplement with ingredients that are supposed to help sexual function, libido, and semen quality. However, these results are based only on animals, or only helped humans who actually had a vitamin deficiency. So, essentially, it will not increase testosterone, but it will help you be healthier overall, which will improve your sexual function.
A lot of doctors tend to treat the symptoms of low testosterone, instead of the cause. Vault health is the only service out of these four that provides a complete testosterone test, and actually aims to fix the problem by getting to the root of it and prescribing testosterone treatment that is personalized to your needs. Not only that, they offer continuous support from medical professionals throughout. All of this, from the comfort of your home. Vault is the clear winner.
