As men age, their testosterone levels can decline, leading to various symptoms, including decreased energy, muscle mass, and libido. Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) can restore your vitality and vigor. Let us help you feel like your best self again with TRT, offered at both our Virginia Beach and Chesapeake locations.
ACHIEVE YOUR WELLNESS GOALS WITH TRT
If you’re dealing with persistent fatigue, a fading sex drive, stubborn weight gain, or a general sense that something is just “off,” you’re not imagining it. These are recognized symptoms of low testosterone, a common and treatable medical condition that affects millions of men.
At Fountain of You MD, we specialize in helping men identify and address the root cause of these symptoms through Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT). Treatment uses bioidentical testosterone, which is chemically identical to what your body produces naturally, to restore your levels to an optimal range and relieve the symptoms that have been holding you back.
Unlike a one-size-fits-all prescription, our approach starts with comprehensive lab work and a thorough consultation with one of our experienced medical providers. Your treatment plan is built around your results, your symptoms, and your goals.
Symptoms of Low T
- Decreased sex drive and erectile dysfunction
- Fatigue and decreased energy levels
- Loss of muscle mass and strength
- Increased body fat
- Decreased bone density and osteoporosis
- Mood changes, such as depression and irritability
- Memory and concentration problems
- Sleep disturbances, such as insomnia or sleep apnea
- Decreased body hair and beard growth

TREATMENT OPTIONS FOR MEN'S TRT
Injectable Hormones
Injectable hormones are a common method of administering testosterone replacement therapy for men. Through intramuscular injections, testosterone is directly delivered into the body, allowing for precise dosage control and consistent hormone levels. Injectable hormones offer convenience and flexibility in administration frequency, making them suitable for men seeking a reliable and effective treatment option for low testosterone levels.
Hormone Pellets
Hormone pellets are small implants containing bioidentical testosterone inserted beneath the skin. These pellets release testosterone over several months, providing sustained hormone levels without frequent administration. Pellet therapy offers consistent hormone delivery, mimicking the body’s natural testosterone production rhythm. It is a preferred option for men seeking long-term symptom relief and convenience in managing low testosterone levels.
DON’T SETTLE FOR FRANCHISED TRT TREATMENT
Not all treatment experiences are the same.
At Fountain of You MD, your care is guided by our local, experienced medical providers who take the time to understand your lab results, your symptoms, your lifestyle, and your long-term health goals. Every plan is thoughtfully developed around you, not a preset protocol. We provide consistent monitoring and prioritize continuity of care to closely track your progress over time.
We believe great outcomes start with real relationships. That means care that is attentive, responsive, and built specifically around you, not a volume driven model.
We also prioritize transparency in every aspect of your treatment, including pricing. Many franchised TRT providers advertise enticing introductory offers, but patients often encounter higher long-term costs through repeated lab charges, inflated medication pricing, and additional add-ons. Our approach is simple. No hidden fees, no surprises, just clear, competitive pricing and high quality care designed to support lasting results so you can focus on your progress, not your bill.

Real Patient: Before & After TRT
TRT CHANGED MY LIFE: DR. ARBUCKLE’S JOURNEY WITH TRT
After experiencing the symptoms of low testosterone himself, fatigue, weight gain, low mood, and a testosterone level of just 260 ng/dL, Dr. Jeffrey Arbuckle turned to TRT and saw a complete transformation. He lost 75 pounds, resolved his hypertension, sleep apnea, and high cholesterol, and ultimately founded Fountain of You MD out of his passion for this therapy.
Why Patients Trust Fountain of You MD
Serving patients across Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, and Hampton Roads.
Our Proven 3-Step Hormone Optimization Process
Step 1: Hormone Testing
Your journey begins with comprehensive hormone testing. A quick in-office blood draw provides the information needed to understand your current hormone levels and establish an important baseline for your overall wellness. These results help your provider identify potential imbalances and support the recommendations discussed during your consultation.
Step 2: Personalized Consultation
Your consultation is an in-depth evaluation with one of our trained medical professionals, either an MD or a Physician Assistant, who specialize in hormone health. They review your medical history, discuss your symptoms, and explain your lab results in detail. This ensures your plan is guided not only by laboratory values but also by how you feel, since what is “normal” for one person may not be optimal for another. Every patient is treated individually with the goal of understanding what will best support your health and long-term wellness.
Step 3: Customized Treatment Plan
If hormone therapy is appropriate for your needs, your provider will recommend a tailored plan. Options may include injectable therapy or pellet placement. Treatment begins only when you feel ready, and your plan is monitored carefully to help maintain hormone levels within an optimal range.

How much does TRT cost?
Testosterone Replacement Therapy costs vary depending on delivery method and whether you choose a monthly or annual plan.
We can provide detailed cost information for your specific circumstances over the phone before you schedule.
We offer flexible financing through CareCredit and Cherry. Qualified Military, Law Enforcement, Firefighters, and EMS personnel receive 10% off eligible TRT service fees and in house hormone payment plans. This discount does not apply to pellet therapy and must be requested at enrollment.
We also feature hormone promotions throughout the year, so follow us on Facebook, Instagram, or TikTok for our latest offerings.
Is hormone replacement therapy covered by insurance?
Fountain of You MD is a self-pay clinic. While we do not bill insurance directly, we are happy to provide detailed visit documentation that you may submit to your insurance provider for possible reimbursement. Many hormone replacement therapy options are not typically covered, although every plan is different, so it is always best to check with your insurer directly. Patients are welcome to use Health Savings Accounts at Fountain of You MD and we also offer flexible payment options through CareCredit and Cherry.
How does testosterone replacement therapy work?
At Fountain of You MD in Virginia Beach, we treat men with low Testosterone levels with a comprehensive combination of lifestyle changes and high quality, time-released intramuscular injections of bioidentical hormones on a weekly or biweekly basis. Bioidentical hormone injections are the most safe and effective method of Testosterone hormone replacement therapy.
We have not achieved results using transdermal (through the skin) hormone replacement therapy, which is not absorbed well in men, is easily transferable to children and women, and is outrageously expensive. Other clinics often prescribe patches, pellets, or intranasal therapies, all of which can have irritating side effects and highly ineffective absorption. Intramuscular testosterone injections are the gold standard for balancing hormones in men.
What is testosterone replacement therapy (TRT)?
TRT is a medical treatment that helps restore healthy testosterone levels in men who are experiencing symptoms of low testosterone, also known as “Low T.” Treatment options may include pellets or injections, depending on individual needs.
What are the signs of low testosterone?
Symptoms of low testosterone may include fatigue, reduced sex drive, weight gain (especially around the midsection), difficulty building muscle, poor concentration, low mood, and erectile dysfunction. Bloodwork is required to confirm diagnosis.
Is testosterone therapy safe?
Yes, testosterone therapy is considered safe when administered and monitored by experienced medical providers. At Fountain of You MD, we use evidence-based protocols and regular lab testing to ensure optimal dosing and minimize risks.
How is testosterone therapy administered?
At Fountain of You MD, we primarily recommend testosterone injections for men due to their reliability and steady, streamlined delivery. Injections are typically given once a week or bi-weekly, depending on individual needs and lab results. Pellet therapy is also available for men who prefer a longer-acting option with less frequent dosing.
How long does it take to feel the effects of testosterone therapy?
Many men begin to notice improvements in energy, mood, and focus within 2 to 4 weeks. Gains in muscle mass, libido, and sexual function often improve steadily over 6 to 12 weeks of consistent therapy.
Will testosterone therapy help with weight loss or belly fat?
Yes, it can. Testosterone plays a key role in metabolism and muscle maintenance. Optimizing testosterone levels often supports fat loss—especially abdominal fat—when paired with a healthy lifestyle and proper nutrition.
Do I need ongoing lab work or follow-ups for testosterone therapy?
Absolutely. Lab work is performed before starting therapy and repeated at regular intervals to monitor testosterone levels, blood counts, and other important markers. To make the process seamless, we schedule your follow-up labs and next appointment in advance to help maintain steady results and prevent symptoms from returning.
Is testosterone therapy only for older men?
No, TRT is not only for older men. Low testosterone can affect men at any age. While levels naturally decline over time, younger men may also experience symptoms due to stress, lifestyle, or medical conditions. We tailor each treatment plan based on your age, lab results, and health goals. More TRT myths debunked. >>
