In India, testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) must be prescribed by a licensed medical professional after proper evaluation. Not every doctor is qualified to assess hormone levels or safely prescribe treatment. Knowing who can legally and effectively prescribe TRT helps you get the right care for your health.
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is used to treat men with low testosterone levels—often linked to fatigue, low sex drive, and poor muscle recovery. But TRT is not something you can get over the counter or through unqualified sources. You need a doctor who understands hormones and follows proper medical guidelines.
Which Doctors Can Prescribe TRT?
1. Endocrinologists
These specialists focus on hormonal issues. They’re among the most qualified doctors to diagnose and treat low testosterone with TRT. Nova Men’s Health employs endocrinologists.
2. Urologists
Urologists treat male reproductive and urinary health problems. They often help men with low testosterone and can legally prescribe TRT in India.
3. General Practitioners (GPs) and Primary Care Doctors
Some GPs can prescribe TRT if they confirm low testosterone through blood tests. However, they may refer you to a specialist if your case needs more detailed care.
4. Men’s Health Clinics
Clinics like Nova Men’s Health specialize in male hormones, sexual health, and energy optimization. Our doctors are trained to diagnose low testosterone and create customized TRT plans for Indian men.
5. Hormone Therapy and Anti-Aging Specialists
Some licensed doctors focus on age-related hormone decline. They can legally prescribe testosterone therapy as part of a broader hormone optimization program.
How to Get a Prescription for TRT
Getting on TRT safely starts with the right steps:
Blood Testing: A hormone panel is needed to confirm low testosterone.
Book a Consultation: Talk to a qualified doctor about your symptoms.
Evaluation: Your doctor will check if TRT is right for you based on your health history.
Get a Prescription: If approved, you’ll receive testosterone in a form like injections or gel.
Follow-Up: Ongoing check-ups and blood tests ensure the treatment works and stays safe.
