Testosterone replacement therapy — GP-led TRT clinic
TRT in Preston can help men with low testosterone (hypogonadism) feel like themselves again. Ongoing tiredness, low sex drive, erectile dysfunction, brain fog, reduced muscle strength, low mood or a lack of motivation can all be signs that your testosterone levels are lower than they should be.
TRT works by replacing the hormone directly. As explained by the NHS, testosterone is given as a gel or an intramuscular injection. At My Private Clinic, Dr Faizal only prescribes TRT once a testosterone blood test confirms continuously low levels alongside genuine symptoms.
This is different from online questionnaire-based prescribing services — Dr Faizal sees you, examines you and reviews your blood tests before any hormone therapy is prescribed. For more concerns, explore our men's health services.

Is TRT right for you?
TRT may be worth discussing with a GP if you're experiencing:
- Persistent fatigue, low energy or low mood
- Reduced sex drive or erectile dysfunction
- Loss of morning erections
- Decreased muscle mass and strength
- Poor concentration or memory
- Hot flushes, sweats or disturbed sleep
Screening is particularly worthwhile if you also have type 2 diabetes or a BMI over 30 — both are linked to low testosterone.

FAQs about the TRT clinic
What is testosterone replacement therapy (TRT)?
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is a treatment that restores testosterone to a healthy level using a gel or injection. It's prescribed once blood tests confirm genuinely low testosterone alongside symptoms — not simply because of age.
What are the five signs of low testosterone?
The five most common signs are persistent fatigue, low mood, reduced sex drive, erectile dysfunction, and decreased muscle mass or strength. Many men also notice loss of morning erections, poor concentration and disturbed sleep. If these symptoms are affecting your daily life, it's worth discussing TRT with a GP.
What are testosterone replacement therapy side effects?
The main downsides are a temporary drop in fertility and testicular shrinkage, along with possible skin reactions, acne or a rise in blood count that needs monitoring. According to NHS patient information, these effects are manageable with regular blood tests, but TRT is a long-term commitment, not a quick fix.
Do I need a referral from my NHS GP to access private TRT in Preston?
No referral is needed to book with My Private Clinic. You can contact us directly by phone, WhatsApp or online, and Dr Secretary will assess you independently.
How much does TRT cost in the UK?
Private TRT in the UK typically costs anywhere from around £50 to £300 a month, depending on the clinic, medication and monitoring included. At My Private Clinic, pricing is transparent from your very first consultation, so you'll know the full cost — including medication — before you commit.
How long can you safely be on TRT?
TRT can be continued long term for as long as it provides symptom relief without causing health complications. Dr Faizal will review your dose over time and adjust it as needed, with ongoing monitoring.
