Hormone Assessment and Hormone Therapy
What is a hormone assessment?
A hormone assessment checks your hormone levels and looks at whether they may be linked to certain symptoms.
A person may ask for a hormone assessment because of:
- Low sex drive
- Ongoing tiredness
- Changes in sleep
- Changes in muscle mass
- Other symptoms that may need medical review
The assessment may include blood tests and a medical consultation.
Dr. Télusma reviews the results together with your symptoms, health history, and overall health.
When may hormone therapy be considered?
Hormone therapy may be considered when a medical assessment shows that treatment may be suitable.
The treatment plan is based on the patient’s needs. Follow-up testing may be used to check hormone levels and treatment response.
For more information about the treatment approach, see our Hormone Therapy Montreal
Hormone therapy is not suitable for everyone. A doctor must assess your individual situation first. Clinical guidance also emphasises the importance of an appropriate diagnosis, testing, treatment decisions, and monitoring when testosterone therapy is considered. Endocrine Society guidance
How does hormone therapy work?
Hormone therapy works by helping manage hormone levels when a medical condition or hormone imbalance makes treatment appropriate.
The exact treatment depends on the patient’s medical needs. Dr. Télusma explains the treatment plan and follow-up during the consultation.
Scrotox in Montreal
What is Scrotox?
Scrotox is a treatment that uses botulinum toxin injections in the scrotal area.
It may help reduce excessive sweating in the scrotal area and may temporarily reduce contractions of the dartos muscle.
Scrotox is used for selected patients after a medical assessment.
You can learn more about the treatment, suitability, and what to expect on our Scrotox treatment
Who may be suitable for Scrotox?
Scrotox may be considered for patients with concerns such as excessive scrotal sweating or discomfort linked to strong scrotal muscle contraction.
It is not suitable for everyone. Dr. Télusma decides whether the treatment is appropriate after reviewing the patient’s health and concerns.
How long does Scrotox take?
A Scrotox appointment may take around 30 minutes. The exact appointment time can vary depending on the treatment plan.
Recovery can also vary from person to person.
Shockwave Therapy for Men
What is shockwave therapy?
Shockwave therapy uses low-intensity acoustic waves on a selected treatment area. It is a non-invasive treatment that may be considered for certain men’s intimate health concerns.
Patients can learn more about the treatment and its suitability on our Shockwave Therapy Montreal
Who may benefit from shockwave therapy?
Shockwave therapy may be considered for selected patients after a medical assessment. It may be an option when symptoms or concerns are appropriate for this type of treatment.
Dr. Télusma considers several factors before recommending shockwave therapy, including:
- Your overall health and medical history
- Your current symptoms and concerns
- Your treatment goals and expectations
- Whether shockwave therapy is medically appropriate for you
- Your response to previous or current treatments, where relevant
Your consultation is personalised. The goal is to determine whether shockwave therapy is suitable for your individual needs rather than using the same treatment approach for every patient.
For additional clinical context, European Association of Urology guidance discusses low-intensity shockwave therapy as an option for selected patients with certain forms of erectile dysfunction, while also recognising that treatment recommendations depend on the individual clinical situation. European Association of Urology guidance
How many shockwave treatments are needed?
There is no single number of shockwave therapy sessions that is right for every patient. Your treatment schedule depends on your individual condition, goals and response to therapy.
Your treatment plan may take into account:
- The nature and severity of your symptoms
- Your overall health
- Your treatment goals
- How you respond to each session
- Your doctor’s clinical assessment
Your doctor will discuss the recommended number and timing of sessions during your consultation, so you know what to expect before starting treatment.
What happens after shockwave treatment?
Shockwave therapy normally does not require significant recovery time, allowing many patients to return to their usual activities without an extended recovery period.
After treatment:
- You may experience temporary sensitivity or mild discomfort
- Your doctor may provide specific aftercare instructions
- You can discuss any symptoms or concerns during follow-up
- Results can vary from person to person
- Changes may develop gradually rather than immediately after a session
Your doctor will explain what to expect after your treatment and when you should follow up. Because every patient responds differently, your treatment plan and expected results are personalised to your individual situation.
Confidential Men’s Health Care
Is men’s health care at GLIF Medical confidential?
Yes. Your consultation and medical information are handled privately.
Men’s health and intimate health concerns can be personal, so the clinic provides a respectful setting where patients can discuss their concerns openly.
Why does privacy matter in men’s health care?
Privacy can make it easier to discuss sensitive concerns and ask questions.
A confidential consultation gives you the opportunity to speak directly with the doctor about your health and treatment options.

When Should You Consider a Men’s Health Consultation?
Men may seek a men’s health consultation when a physical, hormonal, sexual, or intimate health concern is affecting their wellbeing or quality of life. You do not need to know which treatment you need before booking an appointment.
Common reasons to speak with a doctor may include:
- Changes in sexual health — concerns about sexual function, sensitivity, or other intimate health changes.
- Low sex drive — a persistent change in sexual desire that you would like to discuss with a doctor.
- Possible hormone-related symptoms — ongoing tiredness, changes in sleep, reduced muscle mass, or other symptoms that may require hormone assessment.
- Excessive scrotal sweating — sweating or discomfort that may be affecting daily comfort.
- Concerns about intimate appearance or function — questions about available medical treatment options.
- Questions about treatment options — if you are unsure whether hormone therapy, Scrotox, PRP, neuromodulator treatment, or shockwave therapy may be appropriate.
- Follow-up after treatment — when you need your response to treatment reviewed or want to discuss the next steps.
What Should You Know Before Treatment?
Before treatment, it is useful to understand what to expect and whether the option is suitable for you.
During your consultation, you can discuss:
- Purpose: What concern does the treatment address?
- Suitability: Is it right for you?
- Results: What can you reasonably expect?
- Risks: What side effects or limitations should you know about?
- Recovery: What should you expect after treatment?
- Follow-up: When will your response be reviewed?
Results can vary between patients. Your doctor can explain the treatment, benefits, limitations, and follow-up based on your individual assessment.
What Should You Know Before Treatment?
Before treatment, it is useful to understand what the treatment is intended to address, whether it is suitable for you, what results you may expect, and what recovery may involve. During your consultation, you can also discuss potential risks, limitations, and follow-up care. Results can vary between patients, so Dr. Télusma can explain the treatment and what to expect based on your individual assessment.
