The Signs
What men notice
Low testosterone rarely announces itself. It shows up quietly, in the middle of a normal life — and most men blame the calendar.
Energy — the tank that empties by mid-afternoon
Drive — interest that isn’t what it was, in the gym or in bed
Strength — workouts that stopped paying you back
Recovery — soreness that takes days instead of hours
Body — weight that settles in and won’t move
Sleep & focus — nights that don’t restore, days that don’t sharpen
Any of these is a reason to test. None of them is a diagnosis — plenty of other things can cause the same symptoms, which is exactly why we measure before anything else. Your level has a number. Let’s find it.
The Care Model
What the name promises
Calibrated TRT® is a five-pillar care model, built to answer the five questions any skeptical man should ask: who is watching, what you’re taking and how it reaches you, how it’s done, how we know it’s working — and what else is working alongside it.
Pillar 01 — Closer Clinical Supervision
Two tests. Then we talk therapy.
One low reading isn’t low testosterone — levels swing by day and by morning. So the Calibrated TRT® program starts where good medicine starts: an in-person evaluation with vitals, and two separate blood tests confirming low testosterone before therapy commences. That’s The Two-Test Standard™, and it’s the floor, not the ceiling. If your labs support therapy, you’ll be prescribed only when clinically appropriate — and a licensed clinician supervises your care for as long as therapy runs. If they don’t, we’ll tell you straight and help you look for the real cause. Test. Don’t guess.
Pillar 02 — The Therapy
What you take — and how it reaches you
Calibrated TRT® therapy runs on the field’s two proven delivery routes — intramuscular injections and implanted pellets — with purity-focused sourcing behind both.
At home — California
Injections delivered to your California residence for self-injection — after proper training and safe-handling support from our clinical team, and only when your clinician determines it’s appropriate.
Which route fits your life is a conversation. Which route fits your medicine is your clinician’s call — made with you, after your labs.
Pillars 03 + 04 — Proven Protocols, Serial Monitoring
Labs reveal. Tuning restores.
Proven, established protocols stand behind every Calibrated TRT® plan — evidence-aligned starting points, monitoring rhythms, and adjustment ranges built on decades of clinical use of injections and pellets. Their job is to guide and inform your clinician. Your clinician’s job is to decide. What reaches you is a treatment plan set by your own licensed clinician, who alone determines diagnosis, prescribing, dose, and the course of your therapy. Nothing experimental. Nothing improvised. Nothing that outranks medical judgment.
Then the tuning starts — and never really stops.
-
Step 01 — Labs
Regular bloodwork on a cadence your clinician sets, watching your response and watching for side effects.
-
Step 02 — Symptoms
A validated vitality and symptom assessment at intake, repeated as therapy runs — because the number and the man both matter.
-
Step 03 — Dose
Fine-tuned by your clinician to what the labs show and how you actually feel. Adjusted by a physician. Never by an algorithm, never by a sales target.
That loop is what the Calibrated TRT® name promises.
Straight Answers
What Calibrated TRT® costs
FROM $189/MONTH
| Program | Monthly | How it reaches you |
|---|---|---|
| Calibrated TRT® injections | FROM $189/MONTH | Administered in clinic — or delivered to your California residence for self-injection after proper training |

VIGOR VIP™ membership is included with monthly programs — up to 40% off à la carte services, priority scheduling, and member pricing that extends to one household family member.
Physician consultations and lab work are additional services at additional cost — billed separately and confirmed in writing before you enroll. A medical consultation and prescription are required before any medication is provided. Pricing is adjusted periodically and can vary by clinic. No insurance billing — HSA/FSA accepted for eligible services.
Pillar 05 — Bespoke Ancillary Support
Testosterone restores the baseline. This maximizes it.
A Calibrated TRT® plan can extend to bespoke ancillary support — led by physician-directed peptide therapy, the primary complementary therapy to Calibrated TRT®. Vigor Stacks™ peptide programs are organized by goal — recovery and repair, sleep and stress, metabolic support, healthy aging — prescribed only when clinically appropriate and sourced exclusively from licensed U.S. compounding pharmacies. Nutrition, exercise, and sleep guidance are woven around both therapies.
Bespoke means bespoke. What you’re offered is determined by your own clinician — never a package, never automatic, never sold as a tier. Peptide programs and other ancillary support are additional services at additional cost, and are never included in the FROM $189/MONTH injection-program anchor.
Candor
Real medicine. Real considerations.
TRT is not a supplement with a doctor’s note. Testosterone is a prescription medication and a Schedule III controlled substance — and starting therapy is a medical decision worth making carefully.
Not every man is a candidate
If two tests don’t confirm low testosterone — or your health picture argues against therapy — you won’t be prescribed. We’d rather lose the sale than miss the diagnosis.
Fertility is part of the conversation
Testosterone therapy can suppress sperm production. If children are in your plans, tell your clinician at the consult — it changes the plan, and there are options to discuss.
Monitoring isn’t optional
Ongoing bloodwork is how therapy stays safe and effective. It’s built into the program, and it’s non-negotiable.
It’s a therapy, not a moment
Benefits build over months and continue with treatment. Starting — and stopping — are decisions you make with your clinician, never alone.
FAQ
Questions, answered
Do I need a prescription for testosterone therapy?
Yes — always. Testosterone is a Schedule III controlled substance, and every Calibrated TRT® prescription requires a consultation, an in-person evaluation with vitals, and two separate blood tests confirming low testosterone. No exceptions, no shortcuts.
What does Calibrated TRT® cost?
Calibrated TRT® injections run FROM $189/MONTH — administered in clinic, or delivered to your California home for self-injection after proper training — and pellets run $210/month, placed in clinic. Physician consultations and lab work are additional services at additional cost, and your exact plan is confirmed in writing before you start. HSA/FSA accepted.
Injections or pellets — which is right for me?
That’s a decision you’ll make with your clinician after your labs. Injections offer precise, adjustable dosing on a steady rhythm. Pellets trade regular dosing for a brief in-clinic placement that releases over time. Both are proven routes — the right one depends on your medicine and your life.
Can I really do my injections at home?
In California, yes — when your clinician determines it’s appropriate. We train you properly first and support safe handling, and your evaluation, vitals, and labs still happen in person before anything is prescribed. Residence delivery is currently available in California only.
How fast will I feel a difference?
It varies, and anyone promising a date is guessing. Many men notice changes over weeks, and meaningful results build over months of fine-tuning. Individual results vary — that’s what the monitoring is for.
What if my labs come back normal?
Then you won’t be prescribed testosterone — and that’s the system working. We’ll go over what your numbers do show and help you figure out what’s actually behind your symptoms. The Two-Test Standard™ exists to protect you from the wrong therapy, not to sell you one.
Will TRT affect my fertility?
It can. Testosterone therapy can suppress sperm production while you’re on it. If having children is in your plans, say so at the consult — it changes the plan, and your clinician will walk you through the options.
Do I have to stay on TRT forever?
No. You stay on therapy as long as it’s clinically appropriate and working for you. Your plan is reviewed at every check-in, and starting or stopping is always a decision you make with your clinician.
Is my treatment discreet?
Completely. Private rooms, unmarked communications, and a team that’s heard everything. Prefer to start by phone? Call 949-570-0800 and ask for a private consult.
Do you take insurance?
No — Dr. Vigor® is a concierge clinic group and doesn’t bill insurance, which is how pricing stays public and simple. HSA/FSA funds are accepted for eligible services, and every cost is confirmed in writing before you commit.
