Visana Health is a full-service medical clinic with the ability to evaluate, treat, and prescribe medications when they’re truly needed. Through shared decision-making, we partner with you to understand your goals, review all available options, and co-create a long-term plan that feels right for you.

Our providers can prescribe testosterone in certain situations. If you’re interested in testosterone, your provider will help to decide if testosterone is clinically appropriate and safe for you. For some patients, it can be a helpful option. For others, a different treatment may be a better fit depending on what’s driving the symptoms.

Here’s what the process usually looks like:

  • A virtual visit with a Visana provider to discuss your symptoms, health history, and goals

  • Recommended lab work, if needed

  • If testosterone is right for you, we’ll send a prescription to your local pharmacy or a mail-order option

  • One note: prescribing rules vary by state, and a few states don’t allow testosterone to be prescribed via telehealth. If that applies to where you live, we’ll explain your options and help you connect with in-person care.

We also provide support for sexual health and wellness more broadly, including concerns about libido, arousal, pain, hormonal changes, and intimacy.
