If you’re over 40 and struggling with stubborn belly fat, low energy, or decreased strength and libido, it’s not a lack of effort, it could be your hormones. At Alturas Medical Weight Loss, we provide personalized, medically supervised hormone therapy combined with GLP-1 medications to help men 40+ regain a healthy body composition.
Many men over 40 notice unexplained weight gain, decreased strength, and lower energy despite maintaining the same diet and exercise routines from their 30s. The cause? Hormonal shifts that slow metabolism, reduce muscle mass, and affect energy levels. Key Factors for Men:
Declining testosterone and other key hormones impact body composition and overall health:
As testosterone levels decline with age, many men notice subtle changes that can affect their energy, body composition, and overall quality of life. Common symptoms may include:
Stubborn belly fat or weight gain
Loss of muscle mass or strength
Low energy and fatigue
Mood swings, irritability, or brain fog
Decreased libido or erectile issues
Difficulty recovering from workouts

Get answers about hormone replacement therapy for weight loss
Hormone replacement therapy restores testosterone and other essential hormones that decline with age. This improves metabolism, supports lean muscle retention, reduces fat storage, and enhances energy. When combined with GLP-1 medications, it also helps control appetite and portion size, promoting sustainable weight loss.
Results vary depending on your age, starting weight, hormone levels, and lifestyle. Combination therapy has been shown to improve body composition, helping men lose fat, especially around the belly, while maintaining or increasing lean muscle mass for a stronger, healthier physique.
Yes. When managed by qualified medical providers, testosterone and other bioidentical hormones are safe. At Alturas, we perform thorough health assessments, regularly monitor lab results, and adjust therapy as needed to ensure safety and effectiveness throughout your treatment.
Many men notice improvements in energy, focus, and mood within 2–4 weeks of starting therapy. Changes in weight, body composition, and muscle tone typically appear between months 2 and 3, with the most significant results occurring between months 6 and 12 as hormone levels stabilize.
Hormone therapy and GLP-1 medications support metabolism and fat loss, but results are enhanced with proper nutrition and physical activity. We provide guidance tailored for men over 40 to help maintain muscle, improve strength, and optimize long-term weight management.
Yes. While we prefer in-person visits for Meridian patients, men across the country can access comprehensive virtual care, including lab testing coordination, individualized treatment planning, and ongoing monitoring to ensure safe and effective therapy.
