Are your testosterone levels too low?
Your testosterone levels decrease as you age. This can lead to erectile problems, fatigue, or loss of muscle mass. Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) can alleviate these symptoms, improve your quality of life, and prevent age-related diseases. However, a testosterone deficiency can occur at any age.

Testosterone is an important male sex hormone. It is responsible for maintaining cognition and mood, sexual functions, bone density, muscle mass and strength, fat distribution, and more. It is essential for muscles, skin, bones, the brain, prostate, and erections. Therefore, sufficient testosterone is important for a good quality of life.
Your testosterone production can decrease for various reasons. This often causes the following symptoms:
- Less energy and motivation
- Reduced sex drive and poorer erections
- Decreased muscle strength and muscle mass
- Increase in body fat and more abdominal fat
- Weakened bones and cardiovascular disease
- Reduced body hair
- Depressive feelings
Testosterone therapy can help reduce these symptoms.
Do you recognize these symptoms?
Testosterone therapy (TRT) is primarily for men:
- with low testosterone (hypogonadism)
- who have used anabolic steroids
- with osteoporosis or anemia
- with erectile dysfunction or reduced libido
- Men with low energy or motivation
Testosterone therapy is not suitable for everyone. Do you plan to have children? Do you have prostate or breast cancer, urinary tract issues, clotting problems, or have had a heart or brain infarction? In these cases extra caution is needed and personalized advice is necessary.
You can choose testosterone treatment for various reasons, amongst which:
- improved libido
- improving your energy levels
- improving your muscle mass and strength
- improved mood
- because of a medical condition
Your symptoms may have other causes than testosterone deficiency. Therefore, it is important to seek proper advice.

GET IN TOUCHI offer a new concept in the Netherlands: online consultations with a doctor who helps you map your health and guides you through testosterone therapy. That's why it's important to know the following.
Referral from your general practitioner
You do not need a referral from your general practitioner or specialist to be helped by me. You can always turn to me with questions about testosterone and testosterone therapy (TRT), even if your GP is unable or unwilling to assist you.
Reimbursement/Insurance
I do not have agreements with health insurers. This allows me to spend more time with you and better meet your needs. This way, I can provide the best possible personal approach to everyone interested.
When I prescribe testosterone, the medication will be reimbursed by your health insurance. However, you will first have to pay your deductible if you haven’t used it yet. For 2024, the minimum deductible set by the government is €385, but you may personally have agreed on a higher amount.
Everyone is different. Therefore, my advice, treatments, and assessments are tailored to each individual. What is the goal of FREYR? To help men gain clarity about their health and how to improve it.
