Men's Health

Men have a unique set of health needs, and far too many men put those needs at the bottom of their to-do list. At Visiting Medical Clinic, LLC, in Las Vegas, Nevada, experienced specialist Amanda Aydin, FNP-C, offers high-quality men’s health services, and telehealth support is delivered from the Colorado Springs, Colorado, location. Booking an appointment is fast and easy with online and phone options.

What are some common men’s health issues?

Many men’s health issues are linked to reproductive health, but there are also several serious health conditions that affect men at high rates. These include heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, and depression. Amanda works closely with the men in her care to ensure they are on track for optimal general health. 

When it comes to reproductive health, many men’s health issues are directly linked to hormone production. Some of the changes that can develop when hormone production becomes unbalanced include:

• Erectile dysfunction
• Swollen breast tissue
• Loss of muscle mass
• Brain fog
• Headaches
• Low sex drive
• Infertility

No matter what type of men’s health issues you’re experiencing, Amanda offers diagnostic and treatment services that can help. 

What role does hormone replacement therapy play in men’s health?

If hormonal imbalance might be causing your symptoms, the first step is lab testing to determine your current hormone production levels. Amanda evaluates the results of your labs to see if hormone replacement therapy might be a good fit for your needs. 

This process works by adding synthetic testosterone to your body’s natural hormones. Hormone replacement therapy is highly personalized and can be administered in a number of ways. Injections, pills, creams, and pellets inserted beneath the surface of your skin are all options. 

It takes time for hormone replacement therapy to yield measurable improvements. Be patient, and know that Amanda is here to guide and advise you as you move through the process. 

How can I make the most of my men’s health visits?

Thinking about what you hope to achieve through your men’s health visit is helpful. Consider making a list of any questions or concerns you have so that nothing is overlooked during your visit. 

Men’s health visits are where you receive the screenings appropriate for your age and overall health. Prostate exams, lab testing, and other screening tools are part of the process. If you are overweight, a discussion of medical weight loss treatment might be helpful. 

When you’re ready to schedule an appointment, reach out to the office by phone during normal business hours. Online booking is available around the clock. Many men’s health needs can also be met via telemedicine visits.
