Even if you are in good health, you may not always feel like you are performing at your best. Low energy levels, focus, and recovery can leave you searching for ways to keep up with the demands of daily life. Optimization for men is about helping your body work more efficiently so you can improve your stamina, enhance your sexual health, and get more from your workouts.
At Balanced Medical Solutions in Hayward, CA, we look at the full picture rather than a single factor. We consider your hormone levels, body composition, and lifestyle habits to create a plan that adapts to your specific needs. By focusing on these details, we can help you reach a higher level of health and give you the tools to function at your best in every aspect of life.
What Is Optimization for Men?
Optimization for men is a medical approach that focuses on helping your body function at its highest potential. It looks at areas such as energy, stamina, sexual health, and physical performance to identify where improvements can be made. After an initial evaluation and blood testing, we design a strategy that can address stubborn weight, low testosterone, or challenges like low libido and erectile dysfunction (ED). This plan may also support building muscle definition and improving recovery. For men who are doing OK and are pretty healthy, optimization can help them “level up” so they can be extraordinary in the bedroom, reach peak production, slow down signs of aging, and optimize their health and immune system.
Your Comprehensive Medical Evaluation
Hormone Testing
Men’s hormone optimization in the SF Bay Area often starts with comprehensive blood tests, including hormone tests. Hormone levels directly influence energy, metabolism, sexual health, and muscle growth. We use blood testing to have a more solid understanding of your current health profile, measure testosterone, thyroid function, and other hormones that affect your overall performance.
Vascular Assessment
Circulation is closely linked to sexual health, exercise performance, and recovery. We evaluate blood flow and vascular function to see if restricted circulation could be contributing to erectile dysfunction, low stamina, or slower recovery after workouts. Once we understand how well your vascular system is performing, we can recommend treatments that provide both short-term improvements and long-term health.
Psychological Screening
Mental health has a powerful impact on how your body responds to hormone changes, physical stress, and intimacy. We discuss factors like stress, sleep disturbances, and mood changes that may interfere with energy and performance. It is important to support both your mind and body throughout this process and to find solutions that can optimize both.
Our Custom Treatment Pathways for Men
No two patients share the same needs, which is why each treatment plan is different. Our options are completely customizable, and several therapies can be combined to give you a more comprehensive approach to your health.
Testosterone Boosters or Testosterone Replacement Therapy
For men still producing enough of their own testosterone, but not at optimal levels, testosterone boosters like clomiphene, enclomiphene, and gonadorelin may be recommended. For older men who have already gone through andropause (AKA male menopause), testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) or Bio-identical testosterone replacement therapy (BHRT) may be recommended. Testosterone boosters and TRT restore hormone levels to support energy, stamina, and physical recovery. As a premier TRT clinic in Fremont, CA, we evaluate your bloodwork to determine whether testosterone boosters or supplementation is appropriate for you. Our low testosterone treatments in San Francisco can help you regain strength, motivation, and vitality.
Shockwave Therapy
Erectile dysfunction or suboptimal performance in the bedroom is often linked to poor circulation in the blood vessels of the penis. If this is the root cause of your symptoms, shockwave therapy, also referred to as GAINSWave®, EPAT, Radial Pressure Wave Therapy, or LIECST, can stimulate blood flow by creating controlled microtrauma that prompts the body’s natural repair processes. This can improve sensitivity and performance without or alongside medications. Shockwave therapy may also enhance the effects of other treatments when used in combination.
Peptide Therapies
Small chains of amino acids known as peptides can be used to influence natural processes in the body. Peptide therapy for men may help optimize patients’ health in different ways, including anti-aging, fat loss, muscle growth, energy regulation, and enhanced sexual function. Different peptides are available depending on your goals, from improving recovery to boosting hormone signals that affect performance. They can be prescribed alone or integrated with other therapies.
IV Therapy
IV therapy allows vitamins, minerals, and hydration to be delivered directly into your bloodstream for rapid absorption. Options include NAD+ therapy for cellular energy, Plaquex® IV for vascular support, and vitamin blends to address any deficiencies you may have that are difficult to address through diet. These treatments can give you more energy, improve your stamina, increase cognitive clarity, and support a healthy immune system. Stem cell and exosome IVs help slow down signs of aging in men, and studies strongly suggest they help rejuvenate the body from the inside out, even helping repair damaged organs, skin, bone, and cartilage.
Oxytocin Therapy
Oxytocin, sometimes called the “love” or bonding hormone, can influence mood, arousal, and sexual satisfaction. Supplementing oxytocin may improve intimacy and emotional connection while supporting your overall sexual function. It can be taken before or during sex to improve the quality of your orgasms, reduce any anxiety you may be feeling in the bedroom, and improve your overall sexual function.
Medications
Oral and injectable medications provide options for those seeking to level up their performance in the bedroom, increase their energy, and improve their vascular health. Options include PDE5 inhibitors such as sildenafil (AKA Vigagra®), tadalafil (AKA Cialis®) and vardenafil (AKA Levitra®). In higher doses, PDE5s can help resolve soft or inconsistent erections (ED), and when taken in small doses, can help men be like “Superman” in the bedroom with stronger, harder, and longer-lasting erections.
These medications also have an anti-aging effect, increase body and cerebral blood flow, offer protection against cardiovascular disease, improve vascular aging, reduce neuroinflammation, and potentially reduce the risk of dementia. Thus, it isn’t just men who need help restoring erectile function and improved confidence in the bedroom who use these types of therapies – they are also prescribed to patients who want to optimize their health and performance. They may also be used in combination with other treatments, if relevant.
Regenerative Treatments
Regenerative medicine, such as stem cell and exosome IV therapies, stimulates the body’s natural repair systems to help men slow down aging, provide neurological support, and help repair vascular and organ and tissue damage. Penile stem cell injections can help with the most stubborn cases of ED, decreased sensitivity, and weak orgasms. However, men who also want to simply rejuvenate their penis and potentially grow its girth and length (a common result seen from this treatment) can also benefit from penile stem cell or exosome injections. We also offer the Climax PRP Shot, which uses the patient’s own platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to improve blood flow and tissue regeneration in the penis.
