Hormone Therapy for Men – More Than Testosterone with Gabrielle Foppe, PA

It’s not just about testosterone! Low testosterone isn’t the only hormone men should be concerned about. In this episode, Elaina Mango, Vice President of the Hotze Health & Wellness Center, is joined by Physician Assistant Gabrielle Foppe to discuss why optimal men's health requires much more than simply treating testosterone levels. They explain how symptoms are often dismissed as normal aging when they may actually be signs of underlying hormone imbalances. They emphasize that thyroid hormones, adrenal hormones, and overall metabolic health all play important roles in a man's energy, mental clarity, and long-term wellness. The conversation also explores why many men delay seeking help due to social stigma and the belief that they should "push through" their symptoms. Elaina and Gabrielle explain the difference between gradual hormone decline in men, often referred to as andropause, and menopause in women. The episode also addresses concerns surrounding low testosterone clinics, highlighting the importance of physician oversight and avoiding excessive testosterone use that may lead to unwanted side effects. Finally, Elaina and Gabrielle encourage both men and their spouses to recognize the signs of hormone imbalance early and seek a personalized approach to restoring long-term health and wellness.
