The staff at Permian Basin Med Spa take pride in assisting patients take charge not only of their health and lifestyles but also towards achieving optimal health. If you are suffering from symptoms of Low Testosterone, chances are it’s not just one aspect of your life that is being negatively affected.

Low testosterone (Low-T) has been known to negatively affect people of all ages. If you’re suffering from a loss of energy, lack of stamina, sleep disturbances, weight gain, difficulty concentrating, loss of muscle mass and/or loss of libido then you may be suffering from low testosterone.

Testosterone therapy is a safe and effective option for getting your life back on track.
