For men, getting older comes with its perks, like living life on their own terms and not having to "sweat the small stuff" day in and day out. At the same time, there are aspects of aging that men dread, like hormonal changes. Yes, you read that right â men, not just women, go through hormonal changes as they age. For men, the biggest change involves a drop in testosterone.
Lower levels of testosterone can wreak havoc on a male's mind and body and when left untreated, can result in symptoms like:
Those symptoms are concerning, but with testosterone replacement therapy and anti-aging medicine, many males improve their quality of life with age. The good news is that TRT and anti-aging meds aren't only reserved for "old guys." In fact, there's no magic age at which men should start thinking about hormone replacement therapy. Everyone's body is different, so if you're experiencing the above conditions in your mid-30s, TRT could be a viable solution when you consult with a doctor.
Testosterone is a crucial hormone for men and plays an important role throughout the male lifespan. Most of a male's testosterone is produced through the testicles. Also called the male sex hormone, testosterone starts playing its part during puberty.
When a male goes through puberty, testosterone helps males develop:
As boys turn to men and men grow older, testosterone levels deplete naturally. Sometimes, events like injuries and chronic health conditions like diabetes can lower testosterone levels. Unfortunately, when a man loses too much T, it results in hypogonadism. When this happens, the testosterone must be replaced, or the male will suffer from symptoms like muscle loss, low libido, and even depression.
TRT is exactly what it sounds like: a treatment option for men that replaces testosterone so that your body regulates hormones properly and restores balance to your life. Also called androgen replacement therapy, TRT alleviates the symptoms that men experience with low T.
Originally lab-synthesized in 1935, testosterone has grown in popularity since it was produced. Today, TRT and other testosterone treatments are among the most popular prescriptions in the U.S.
Without getting too deep into the science, TRT works by giving your body the essential testosterone it needs to function correctly. As the primary androgen for both males and females, testosterone impacts many of the body's natural processes â especially those needed for overall health. For example, men with low T are more prone to serious problems like cardiovascular disease and even type-2 diabetes.
When your body quits making enough testosterone, it causes your health to suffer until a solution is presented. That's where TRT and anti-aging medicine for men can help. TRT helps balance your hormones and replenish your depleted testosterone. With time, your body will begin to heal, and many symptoms like low libido and irritability begin to diminish.
For men, aging is the biggest contributor to lower testosterone levels, though there are other causes like obesity, drug abuse, testicular injuries, and certain prescribed medications. Sometimes, long-term health conditions like AIDS, cirrhosis of the liver, and kidney disease can lower testosterone levels.
When a man's testosterone levels drop significantly, it alters his body's ratio of estrogen and testosterone. Lower testosterone levels cause more abdominal fat, which in turn results in increased aromatase, which converts even more testosterone into estrogen.
If you're concerned that you might have low T, you're not alone. Millions of men in the U.S. feel the same way. The best way to find out if your testosterone is low is to get your levels tested.
For sustainable testosterone replacement therapy benefits, you must consult with hormone doctors and experts like those you can find at Global Life Rejuvenation. That way, you can find the root cause of your hormone problems, and our team can craft a personalized HRT plan tailored to your needs.
Are you used to blasting through a productive day and accomplishing all your daily goals? Do you find yourself losing muscle mass and the craving to be intimate with your partner? Does your partner complain about how irritable you have become? If you're not usually a curmudgeon, your body could be giving you a sign. It could be time to speak with a doctor about TRT and anti-aging medicine for men in Deerfield Beach, FL.
If you're experiencing any of the following symptoms, you might be battling against low testosterone:
One of the most common reasons that men choose TRT is because they have lost that "spark" with their partner. It's not easy for a man to hear that they're not performing like they used to. Intimacy is a powerful part of any relationship. When a once-healthy sex life dwindles, it can cause serious relationship issues.
The good news is that low libido doesn't have to be a permanent problem. TRT and anti-aging medicines help revert hormone levels back into their normal range. When this happens, many men have a more enjoyable life full of intimacy and sex drive.
Weak erections â it's an uncomfortable subject for many men in the U.S. to talk about. It's even worse to experience first-hand. You're in the midst of an intimate moment, and you can't do your part. Despite being perfectly normal, many men put blame and shame upon themselves when they can't achieve an erection. And while the inability to perform sexually can be caused by poor diet, obesity, and chronic health conditions, low testosterone is often a contributing factor.
Fortunately, weak erections are a treatable condition. The best way to regain your confidence and ability in bed is to speak with your doctor. Once any underlying conditions are discovered, options like TRT may be the best course of treatment.
Hair Loss
Do you find it harder and harder to work out and lift weights in the gym? Are you having problems lifting heavy items that you once had no problem lifting?
Recent studies show that when men are inactive, they lose .5% of muscle strength every year, from ages 25 to 60. After 60, muscle loss doubles every decade. While some muscle loss is common as men age, a significant portion can be tied to low testosterone levels. When a man's T levels drop, so does his muscle mass.
Testosterone is a much-needed component used in gaining and retaining muscle mass. That's why many doctors prescribe TRT Deerfield Beach, FL, for men having problems with strength. One recent study found that men who increased their testosterone levels using TRT gained as much as 2.5 pounds of muscle mass.
Whether your gym performance is lacking, or you can't lift heavy items like you used to, don't blame it all on age. You could be suffering from hypogonadism.
If you're like millions of other men in their late 20s and 30s, dealing with hair loss is a reality you don't want to face. Closely related to testosterone decline and hormone imbalances, hair loss is distressing for many men. This common symptom is often related to a derivative of testosterone called DHT. Excess amounts of DHT cause hair follicles to halt their production, causing follicles to die.
Because hair located at the front and crown is more sensitive to DHT, it grows slower than other follicles and eventually stops growing permanently. Thankfully, TRT and anti-aging treatments for men in Deerfield Beach, FL, is now available to address hair loss for good.
While it's true that you can't change your genes, you can change the effects of low testosterone on your body. Whether you're suffering from thinning hair or hair loss across your entire head, TRT and other hormone therapies can stop hair loss and even reverse the process.
Also called "man boobs," gynecomastia is essentially the enlargement of male breast tissue. This increase in fatty tissue is often caused by hormonal imbalances and an increase in estrogen. For men, estrogen levels are elevated during andropause. Also called male menopause, andropause usually happens because of a lack of testosterone.
If you're a man between the ages of 40 and 55, and you're embarrassed by having large breasts, don't lose hope. TRT is a safe, effective way to eliminate the underlying cause of gynecomastia without invasive surgery. With a custom HRT and fitness program, you can bring your testosterone and estrogen levels back to normal before you know it.
Decreased energy was once considered a normal part of aging. Today, many doctors know better. Advances in technology and our understanding of testosterone show that low T and lack of energy often go hand-in-hand.
If you're struggling to enjoy activities like playing with your kids or hiking in a park due to lack of energy, it could be a sign of low T. Of course, getting tired is perfectly normal for any man. But if you're suffering from continual fatigue, a lack of enjoyment, or a decrease in energy, it might be time to speak with a doctor.
Whether you're having a tough time getting through your day or can't finish activities you used to love, TRT could help.
A study from 2011 showed that men who lose a week's worth of sleep can experience lowered testosterone levels â as much as 15%, according to experts. Additional research into the topic found almost 15% of workers only get five hours of sleep (or less) per night. These findings suggest that sleep loss negatively impacts T levels and wellbeing.
The bottom line is that men who have trouble sleeping often suffer from lower testosterone levels as a result. If you find yourself exhausted at the end of the day but toss and turn all night long, you might have low T.
TRT and anti-aging medicines can restore your T levels back to normal, which can help you sleep better with proper diet and exercise.
You're feeling down about everything, and there's no solid explanation for why you're in such a crummy mood. Your daily life is great and full of success, but you can't help but feel unexcited and unmotivated. If you're experiencing symptoms like these, you may be depressed â and it may stem from low testosterone.
A research study from Munich found that men with depression also commonly had low testosterone levels. This same study also found that depressed men had cortisol levels that were 67% higher than other men. Because higher cortisol levels lead to lower levels of testosterone, the chances of severe depression increase.
Depression is a very real disorder and should always be diagnosed and treated by your doctor. One treatment option gaining in popularity is TRT for depression. Studies show that when TRT is used to restore hormone levels, men enjoy a lighter, more improved mood. That's great news for men who are depressed and have not had success with other treatments like anti-depression medicines, which alter the brain's chemistry.
Ask anyone over the age of 50 how their memory is, and they'll tell you it wasn't what it used to be. Memory loss and lack of concentration occur naturally as we age â these aren't always signs of dementia or Alzheimer's.
However, what many men consider a symptom of age may be caused by low testosterone. A 2006 study found that males with low T levels performed poorly on cognitive skill tests. These results suggest that low testosterone may play a part in reducing cognitive ability. If you're having trouble staying on task or remembering what your schedule is for the day, it might not be due to your age. It might be because your testosterone levels are too low. If you're having trouble concentrating or remembering daily tasks, it could be time to talk to your doctor.
Why? The aforementioned study found that participating men experienced improved cognitive skills when using TRT.
Even though today's society is more inclusive of large people, few adults enjoy gaining weight as they age. Despite their best efforts, many men just can't shed the extra pounds around their midsections, increasing their risk of heart disease and cancer.
Often, male weight gain is caused by hormone imbalances that slow the metabolism and cause weight to pile on. This phase of life is called andropause and happens when there is a lack of testosterone in the body. Couple that with high cortisol levels, and you've got a recipe for flabby guts and double chins.
Fortunately, TRT treatments and physician-led weight loss programs can correct hormone imbalances and lead to healthy weight loss for men.
The benefits of hormone replacement therapy for men are numerous. TRT not only grants relief from low-T symptoms but can help give protection against age-related diseases. Additionally, doctors now recognize male testosterone as an important role in alleviating depression.
Some of the most exciting benefits of TRT can include:
Because men do not go through a specific period of hormonal changes like women do (called menopause), many doctors refer to "male menopause" as androgen decline. This is just another term for low testosterone, but like female menopause, the symptoms can be serious and affect your quality of life.
The best way to fight back against male menopause is with male HRT treatment from Global Life Rejuvenation. We provide the following HRT treatments for men:
Our treatment options are personalized for your body and are available as creams, gels, injectables, and implantable pellets. To find out if testosterone replacement therapy is safe for you, contact Global Life Rejuvenation today to schedule your comprehensive testing and anti-aging treatment consultation.
Growth hormone peptides are an innovative therapy that boosts the natural human growth hormone production in a person's body. These exciting treatment options help slow down the aging process and give you a chance at restoring your youth.
Sermorelin is a synthetic hormone peptide, like GHRH, which triggers the release of growth hormones. When used under the care of a qualified physician, Sermorelin can help you lose weight, increase your energy levels, and help you feel much younger.
Human growth hormone (HGH) therapy has been used for years to treat hormone deficiencies. Unlike HGH, which directly replaces declining human growth hormone levels, Sermorelin addresses the underlying cause of decreased HGH, stimulating the pituitary gland naturally. This approach keeps the mechanisms of growth hormone production active.
Benefits of Sermorelin include:
Ipamorelin helps to release growth hormones in a person's body by mimicking a peptide called ghrelin. Ghrelin is one of three hormones which work together to regulate the growth hormone levels released by the pituitary gland. Because Ipamorelin stimulates the body to produce growth hormone, your body won't stop its natural growth hormone production, which occurs with synthetic HGH.
Ipamorelin causes growth hormone secretion that resembles natural release patterns rather than being constantly elevated from HGH. Because ipamorelin stimulates the natural production of growth hormone, our patients can use this treatment long-term with fewer health risks.
One of the biggest benefits of Ipamorelin is that it is suitable for both men and women. It provides significant short and long-term benefits in age management therapies, boosting patients' overall health, wellbeing, and outlook on life. When growth hormone is produced by the pituitary gland using Ipamorelin, clients report amazing benefits.
Some of those benefits include:
Whether you are considering our TRT services, HRT for women, or our growth hormone peptide services, we are here to help. The first step to turning back the hand of time starts by contacting Global Life Rejuvenation.
Our friendly, knowledgeable TRT and HRT experts can help answer your questions and walk you through our procedures. From there, we'll figure out which treatments are right for you. Before you know it, you'll be well on your way to looking and feeling better than you have in years!
A new Aldi grocery store will replace a commercial building at Crossroads Shopping Center in Deerfield Beach, amid redevelopment of the retail property.Following demolition of the 25,000-square-foot commercial building that has office and retail tenants, construction of the 19,432-square-foot Aldi store should be completed by June 2024, said Clifford Stein, who runs Pathway Ventures, Ltd., the owner of the shopping center at Sample and Powerline roads.“We have slowly been redeveloping the property, from what used to be an...
A new Aldi grocery store will replace a commercial building at Crossroads Shopping Center in Deerfield Beach, amid redevelopment of the retail property.
Following demolition of the 25,000-square-foot commercial building that has office and retail tenants, construction of the 19,432-square-foot Aldi store should be completed by June 2024, said Clifford Stein, who runs Pathway Ventures, Ltd., the owner of the shopping center at Sample and Powerline roads.
“We have slowly been redeveloping the property, from what used to be an office park, then slowly became an office-retail park,” Stein told The Real Deal on Thursday. “It was flourishing for many years. But markets change. You’ve just got to roll with the punches.”
About seven years ago, Pathway Ventures demolished two commercial buildings at the shopping center that totaled 32,725 square feet and replaced them with a 3,400-square-foot Wendy’s restaurant and a 6,119-square-foot Wawa gas station and convenience store. Pathway subsequently sold both out-parcel properties, Stein said.
In 1998, Pathway Ventures paid $11 million to acquire the Crossroads Shopping Center from Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York, according to Broward County property records. Two years later, Deerfield Beach annexed the property at 2301 West Sample Road.

“We bought it out of foreclosure,” Stein said. “Mutual of New York had the mortgage on it, and it went into foreclosure. We ended up being the receiver, and we ended up buying the property.”
The new Aldi store will be built on a 1.7-acre site fronting Sample Road just west of the Wawa. The Deerfield Beach City Commission last week approved a site plan for the grocery store development. The city is processing a building permit application for the project, Stein said.
Aldi has 213 stores in Florida, far more than in any of the other 49 states, according to its website. Its Florida operations include two existing grocery stores in Deerfield Beach at 3825 West Hillsboro Boulevard and at 747 South Federal Highway.
Crossroads Shopping Center spans about 25 acres at a transit-oriented location and could encompass various types of future developments, including industrial buildings and workforce housing, Stein said.
“We have plans for different phases for the rest of the site. We’ve got quite a bit of land,” he said. The partial redevelopment of the property so far “wasn’t like a grand scheme plan. It was more like the market was telling me what was needed there, as vacancies started to increase, and tenants started to move elsewhere.”

DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla. – A dog is recovering at an animal hospital in Deerfield Beach after it was found badly injured after being stabbed and then thrown on the side of the road on Interstate 595 in Fort Lauderdale Tuesday night.
Animal rescue crews told Local 10 News they believe the dog was stabbed and slashed before eventually being dumped out and later found off the side of the road on the 595-exit ramp onto Federal Highway.
A veterinarian at Deer Run Animal Hospital in Deerfield Beach said the dog, who was identified as a 1 to 2-year-old male Pitbull mix named Zeus, arrived at the hospital bleeding profusely from a deep cut to his chest cavity from an apparent stab wound.
Kay Khaleel, a good Samaritan, told Local 10 News that she found Zeus on the side of the road and took him to the hospital where doctors at Deer Run Animal Hospital performed extensive surgery.
Khaleel said she was certain that after finding the dog, he wasn’t hit by a car and was abused by another person.
“It looked like someone threw him out and just sliced him. First, I thought he got hit by a car, but I think he got sliced by somebody,” she said.
Dr. Lance Weidenbaum told Local 10 News that he was happy with the outcome of the surgery and believes Zeus is on his way to recovery.
“I’m happy with the surgery, how he’s gonna respond to the surgery. I would say his prognosis is fair to good,” he said.
Weidenbaum believes the dog may have received the injury from a knife because it was a very clean cut, although he wasn’t able to confirm that the incident came from an act of animal abuse.
IHeart Animal Rescue will foster Zeus as soon as he is released from the hospital and is raising money to help pay for his recovery/ surgery expenses. If you would like to donate, click here.

DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla. – Authorities set fire to a wooded area in Deerfield Beach in order to protect the environment.
Officials with Broward County Parks and Recreation and the Florida Forest Service burned 4.3 acres in an effort to increase biodiversity and improve wildlife habitat.
“This area is pyrogenic, meaning it likes to burn, so we do these types of burns when the weather is the right conditions so we can control it and get what we we need out of the fire,” Linda Briggs Thompson, the environmental program manager with Broward County Parks and Recreation, said.
The neighborhoods surrounding the Military Trail Natural Area were all notified so they knew the fire was happening. First responders were also made aware in case someone called 911.
Controlled burns can make areas less likely to experience wildfires and keep the surrounding areas safer.
“When a wildfire occurs, we’re not here on site,” Briggs Thompson said. “We’re not ready to maintain and contain it.”
Many of us aren’t wired to think of fire as a good or healthy thing, but Briggs Thompson explained why it is in this case.
“A lot of these areas of scrubby flatwoods, they are adapted to fire. They have had fire for thousands of years without us being here,” she said. “Also, there are many plants and animals that surprisingly need fire. They might need fire to regenerate their seeds or bring in new food.”
Local 10 Weather Authority meteorologist Brandon Orr weighed in on the necessity of controlled or prescribed burns and their impact in South Florida.
“Especially this week we have seen that daily chance of showers and thunderstorms each and every afternoon, so we’re getting into our lightning season and these cloud-to-ground lightning strikes that happen, even away from the rainfall and thunderstorms, can start up a wildfire like that,” he said. “Before you know it it’s out of control, but we have noticed (in) these areas where we’ve seen prescribed burns, wildfires are not growing as intense.”
Prescribed burns happen at sites like the Military Trail Natural Area every two years or so. It’s one of about a dozen places in Broward County where they happen.
