Physician-led TRT built around your specific labs — Total T, Free T, Bioavailable T, SHBG — not a template, not a platform, not a script generated from a dropdown.
Male Hormone Optimization is for adults who want clinical depth — not a template protocol run by whoever’s on shift, not a “borrowed” supervisory model, not enclomiphene-only because it’s easier to prescribe.
Morning energy isn’t what it was. Recovery between workouts takes longer. Libido changes. Your PCP ran a single Total T and said “you’re in range.” You want a physician who orders the full panel and actually reads it.
Ordering was easy. Follow-up wasn’t. Rotating providers. Hematocrit trending up and no one noticed. Estradiol not managed. You want a named physician who owns the protocol from intake through every follow-up lab.
GLP-1 therapy reduces weight. It can also reduce muscle mass alongside fat. Testosterone optimization preserves the muscle and completes the body-recomposition picture. Most platforms treat these as separate products. Here they’re one protocol.
Physician fee: $149/mo. Labs: $165 initial, $75 annual. Medication: ~$50–80/mo. Three separate line items on your statement. Every charge visible. No bundled mystery pricing.
TRT is a DEA Schedule III medication. Safe delivery requires real clinical infrastructure — documented evaluation, baseline labs that actually inform a protocol, ongoing hematocrit and PSA monitoring, estrogen management, and titration across time as your body responds. A platform running templates can’t do that responsibly. A physician who knows your case can.
Every TRT patient at Empower Med begins with the full hormone panel — Total T, Free T, Bioavailable T, SHBG — plus the metabolic and cardiovascular baseline (CBC, HbA1c, Lipid Panel, LH, PSA, TSH). The panel isn’t marketing; it’s the foundation. Dr. Everson reads every result personally. The protocol follows from what the labs actually say — which format, what dose, what adjunctive therapy fits your specific picture.
“Metabolic therapy reduces the weight. Testosterone optimization preserves the muscle. Together, that’s what body recomposition actually looks like.”
For patients already on Metabolic Optimization, TRT runs as a parallel protocol — one physician holding both pictures at once, adjusting one when the other changes. That’s clinical continuity most platforms structurally cannot provide.
Every protocol is matched to the patient — clinical fit, lifestyle, absorption pattern, and patient preference. All compounded hormone medications are procured through US-based 503A compounding pharmacy partners.
Weekly or bi-weekly subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. The most clinically studied format with the most predictable absorption pattern. Combination vials with anastrozole available for patients who need estrogen management.
Daily application to absorption site. Good option for patients who prefer a daily routine over weekly injection. Custom-compounded concentration in a 30 mL tube. Skin-transfer precautions required.
Dissolves under the tongue once daily. No injection, no skin-transfer risk. Slow-release formulation for steady absorption. Dose range customizable in compounding.
Adjunctive medications are selected based on your labs and clinical picture — not added as upsells. TRT membership includes appropriate adjunctive management.
Labs are ordered through Empower Med and billed at Quest cost + 50% professional-service markup, itemized separately from membership.
Physician fee. Labs. Medication. Three separate line items. You see all of them.
Most men’s health platforms show you one number — $199/mo, $249/mo, whatever it is this week. What’s bundled inside it? Physician fee, medication, labs — combined so you can’t compare, can’t question, and can’t verify whether you’re paying for clinical oversight or a pharmacy markup. Here’s the full breakdown at Empower Med:
| Physician clinical membershipInitial evaluation, protocol design, dose titration, ongoing async messaging, adjunctive therapy management, all ongoing clinical care. | $149/ month |
| Initial lab panelTestosterone FBT,MS (Total T, Free T, Bioavailable T, SHBG), CBC, HbA1c, LH, PSA, TSH, Lipid Panel — with written physician interpretation. | $165one-time |
| Annual monitoring labsLH, PSA, Lipid Panel, Testosterone Total MS. | $75/ year |
| Testosterone cypionateProcured from a US-based 503A compounding pharmacy, billed through the practice with medication management. | ~$50–80/ month |
All-in: approximately $215–235/month in year one. Approximately $215/month after that.
Patients who previously purchased the Open-Access Male Hormone Lab panel and are now enrolling in TRT membership receive a $165 credit against their first membership month. Your first $149 month is covered in full; the remaining $16 rolls to your next billing cycle. The lab purchase serves as your clinical entry point — your prior investment in understanding your testosterone picture is credited directly toward treatment.
A board-certified preventive medicine physician holds his own DEA registration, reviewed your specific lab results, and built a protocol around your biology — not a template. He answers his own messages. He’s the same physician from your first lab draw through every dose adjustment. That’s what the membership fee is paying for.
The most comprehensive testosterone panel available — Total T, Free T, Bioavailable T, SHBG — plus the full metabolic and cardiovascular picture a responsible protocol requires. Written physician interpretation is included. This isn’t a self-serve lab order. A physician reviews and explains every result.
Testosterone cypionate procured from a US-based 503A compounding pharmacy. The practice handles procurement, cold chain, dose-titrated compounding, and pharmacy liaison; medication is billed through the practice with a professional-service markup for medication management — not pharmaceutical retail. Line items are separate on your statement so you see exactly what you pay for clinical oversight versus medication.
“The physician who reviews your first lab is the same physician who reviews your last one.”
Another month on a template protocol, your hematocrit creeping up with nobody watching, your estradiol never managed. Or a real physician holding the whole picture.
