For most men, getting older is a distant thought; a time when bucket-list items are crossed off the list, financial goals are accomplished, and retirement awaits. But then, one day, we wake up and realize that we're not just getting older - we are older. Workouts in the gym start to cause more aches and pains the next morning. Keeping weight off around the midsection is much harder than it once was. Stretching before an impromptu game of basketball isn't just a good idea - it's necessary for you to perform. And that gets to the crux of what men hate most about aging - the inability to perform as they used to, whether it's in the bedroom or on the basketball court.
Unfortunately, there's no avoiding the inevitable. As men age, their testosterone levels deplete, causing a slew of mid-life maladies like:
- Depression
- Fatigue
- Loss of Energy
- Lack of Interest in Sex
- Low Sex Drive
- Can't Hold an Erection
- Irritability
- Weight Gain
- Muscle Loss
- Hair Loss
- Nagging Injuries

If you're a man in his 30s or 40s, and you feel like you're dragging your feet through life with no upside, don't lose hope. Millions of men just like you are experiencing the same symptoms and feelings that you're suffering through. In fact, almost 75% of men live life with undiagnosed low testosterone.
Unlike those men, however, you don't have to settle for the effects of aging. There are easy, science-backed solutions available to you right now. If you're ready to reclaim the looks and feel of your prime, testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) may be for you. TRT in Porterville, CA bridges the gap between your old life with low-T and the new, more virile version of you. That's where Testosterone Optimization Program comes in - to facilitate your transition to a new life with optimal testosterone levels. With TOP by your side, you'll have the guidance and tools to get back on track with personalized TRT plans.
But to understand the life-changing benefits of TOP, you've got to first understand testosterone, the symptoms of low-T, and how TRT works to replenish this much-needed hormone.
What is Testosterone?

When the average person thinks about testosterone, they conjure images of overly aggressive males trying to be extra macho. In reality, however, testosterone is a critical hormone that affects almost every aspect of a male's life. Since it's a sex hormone, testosterone is produced through a male's testicles and is at its highest levels during puberty.
How is Testosterone Produced?
Testosterone is ultimately controlled by the pituitary gland at the base of your brain. Your pituitary gland sends signals to your testicles, and in turn, they produce testosterone. When T levels are too high, your brain tells your pituitary gland to halt production.
Testosterone has a drastic effect on males, especially those going through puberty. It helps males develop:
- Facial hair
- Deeper Voice
- Body Hair
- Sperm
- Libido
- Muscle Mass
- Confidence

Did You Know?
The cholesterol in your body actually synthesizes testosterone but having high cholesterol doesn't mean you have high T. Luckily, your testosterone levels are too well controlled by your pituitary gland to affect your T levels.
What are the Symptoms of Low Testosterone?

Research shows that low testosterone in men increases by about 20% when a man is over 60 and 50% when a man is older than 80.
Additionally, nearly 40% of men have low testosterone if their blood pressure and cholesterol levels are high. To make matters worse, almost 50% of men with obesity have low-T. If you fall into one or more of these categories, it might be time to change your life with more exercise, a healthy diet, and TRT in Porterville, CA.
If you're experiencing any of the following signs of low-T, it could be time to consider the Testosterone Optimization Program:

Fatigue
Are you overwhelmed with apathy and sluggishness, even on your days off? Men with low-T often report loss of energy levels and extreme fatigue, even when they don't put in a full day's work. If you're always tired, despite maintaining a healthy sleep schedule, it may be time to have your testosterone levels checked.

Hair Loss
Testosterone has a vital role in many functions of the male body, including hair follicle production. While many men go bald due to inherited genes, you should be on alert if you're losing hair, particularly if hair loss isn't in your family.

Weight Gain
If we're being honest, a man's sex life can be all but over if they gain a lot of weight. That's especially true when a man has low testosterone and develops symptoms like large breasts. Along with weight gain comes a slew of other health hazards, from high blood pressure to heart problems. If you used to be slim but haven't been able to shed the weight since middle age, you may have low-T. Fortunately, many men enrolled in the Testosterone Optimization Program are able to reverse their weight gain with exercise, discipline, and proper T levels.

Erectile Dysfunction
If there were two words that men worldwide hate to hear, it's erectile dysfunction. If you're one of the millions of men dealing with the fallout of ED and you're ready to make a change, TOP is here to help. Unlike some fly-by-night male health clinics, which only treat the symptoms of ED, we prefer to address the underlying causes, like low testosterone. Our TRT treatments have the potential to do precisely that and more. That way, you don't have to rely on inconvenient pills or invasive surgeries for relief.
Some additional symptoms of low testosterone include:
- Brain Fog
- Low Libido
- Lethargy
- High Cholesterol
- Poor Skin Quality
- Depression
How Does TRT in Porterville, CA Work?

We know you're excited to learn more about the benefits of TRT. But before we dive into the best parts of testosterone replacement therapy, you've got to understand how it works first.
Initially lab-synthesized in 1935, testosterone has been used in medical settings across the globe to address low-T levels. In fact, testosterone is one of the most prescribed meds in the USA.
TRT does almost exactly what its name implies - it replaces diminished testosterone levels in older men. TRT is similar in a way to the insulin people need when they have diabetes. When your body can't produce a hormone, it must be replaced by an exogenous source. In this case, that hormone is testosterone.
As an important androgen in males, testosterone's role is interwoven into the natural processes a man needs for overall health. With TRT, the added hormonal intake has a positive impact on TOP patients and their general health, often preventing cardiac and bone-related diseases like osteoporosis. By providing men with healthy levels of this crucial hormone, they are often able to reclaim the confidence and excitement of living in their 20s and 30s.
While many men begin TRT treatments after 50, younger men are having their testosterone levels checked at TRT clinics like TOP. If you're "too young" for TRT but find yourself suffering from serious symptoms like ED, it may be time to measure your T levels.

Exploring the Exciting Benefits of TRT in Porterville, CA

If you're in search of TRT in California, you're not alone. Hundreds of thousands of men are reclaiming their youth and vigor with testosterone replacement therapy. With TOP medical professionals by your side, you too can experience the healthy, exciting benefits of TRT.
Some of the most frequent benefits we hear about from patients include:

Increased Sexual Desire
If there's one thing that hits men the hardest as they age, it's the inability to perform in the bedroom. Maybe that's why increased libido is among the top reasons men sign up for the Testosterone Optimization Program. In case you were unaware, testosterone levels go up in response to arousal and sexual activity.
In fact, men with higher testosterone levels often enjoy more sexual activity than men with low levels of testosterone. But men over 40 often need more T to achieve erections and maintain sexual desire. TRT is a trustworthy solution for men looking to re-light their sexual spark.
Bone Strength
Testosterone has a very important role in muscle development and mass. But as men get older, their bone mineral densities drop as their T levels get lower. This drop can cause issues like less muscle mass and even osteoporosis. When your bones lose strength, your organs and muscles suffer, lessening your athletic performance and quality of life.
However, research shows us that a man's bone density can increase when they take TRT. Several clinical trials even report better spine and hip bone density too.

Heart Health
The role of a healthy heart is to distribute blood through your body, providing muscles and organs oxygen to function. But when your T levels are low, your organs and muscles suffer due to a lack of red blood cell production. Low testosterone has also been linked to heart issues, which is a big concern for men, especially who have a history of heart disease.
Fortunately, a recent study found that men using TRT to restore their testosterone levels were 24% less likely to have a heart attack and 36% less likely to have a stroke. These promising results show that TRT may keep your blood and heart healthier.

But those benefits just scratch the surface. TOP patients also report additional benefits, such as:
- Stronger Erections
- Better Mood
- Less Fatigue
- Less Body Fat
- Improved Workout Recovery
- Better Brain Functionality
- Enhanced Memory
- Lower LDL
- Improved Regulation of Blood Sugar
- Extra Confidence

Porterville City Manager John Lollis gave about as favorable of a report that could be expected as far as how the city is dealing with the flooding at a special meeting of the Porterville City Council on Friday.
The meeting was held so the city council could ratify a local emergency due to the flooding that was issued by Mayor Martha A. Flores and the acting city manager on Monday. The council needed to take that action within seven days of the local emergency being issued, necessitating the special meeting. The council unanimously approved the local emergency.
The local emergency allows for city staff and administrators to continue to fund and respond to the impacts of the flooding which Lollis described as being “very expensive.”
And the recovery involving the repairs of damage and rebuilding will continue to be expensive. Lollis describe what was going on now as “band-aids” that will need “significant repair.”
The local emergency declaration essentially makes sure that needed funding to deal with the flooding and its recovery will come from FEMA and the state.
As far as the current status of the flood within the city there are basically three hot spots and in all three the damage from the flood has been minimized.
Lollis said one favorable development was the water released from Success Lake through the Tule River had been reduced to 6,000 cubic feet per second, which is still a considerable amount. But that's lower than the 10,000 cfs that was being released earlier in the week.
The lake level at Success Lake had also decreased on Friday by a significant amount to 90,387 acre feet as reported by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on Friday morning. As of Thursday morning the lake's level was at 95,181 acre feet. The lake's gross capacity level is 84,095 acre feet.
Lollis said city crews have been monitoring the Westwood Bridge which remains closed from Highway 190 to Orange Avenue. The bridge is still consider unsafe for vehicles and pedestrians. Lollis said crews are making sure there's no debris and the water continues to flow through the area.
A second hot spot has been River Springs along the river where Lollis said the city has a “significant mitigation effort put in place.”
The third hot spot is just west of Plano north of the River along Rio Vista Avenue where eight homes are affected. A mandatory evacuation order was put in place in that area on Thursday night.
Lollis said crews worked late into the night in that area until it was unsafe to do so and then returned at 6 a.m. Friday to continue to work in that area. He said there wasn't a significant breach in the bank of the river in that area and to prevent that from happening, Lollis said “those efforts continue to be put in place.”
Lollis said the effort to save the eight affected homes should be successful.
The hardest hit area west of Porterville though wasn't as fortunate. Water flooded an entire neighborhood off of Avenue 152 due to a levee break and the flooding happened in about 15 minutes on Wednesday.
An evacuation order was issued for that area west of Olive Avenue, Avenue 152 to Avenue 144 and the Friant/Kern Canal to the Tule River and Westwood Street.
An evacuation order was also issued for the Success Lake area for all residences, businesses and structures on both sides of the Tule River from Richard L. Schafer Dam at the lake to the east side of Road 284.
The evacuation order consists of the area from Schafer Dam, west on Avenue 146 to Road 284, south on Road 284 to the south side of the Tule River from the south side of the Tule River to Schafer Dame and north along Schafer Dam to Avenue 146.
The order doesn't include Highway 190 or residents and businesses along Highway 190 from Road 284 to Schafer Dam.
The evacuation orders on the east and west sides of Porterville have affected about 200 residences.
And while there was somewhat improvement in the flooding conditions at the end of the week, there's still concern about the forecast which predicts another storm is coming early next week.
There's a slight chance of rain on Sunday with a quarter to a half inch of rain possible in Porterville on Monday, the National Weather Service forecast stated as of Friday afternoon. Another quarter to a half inch could be possible on Monday night.
The storm is expected to become even worse on Tuesday with three quarters to an inch of rain possible. Another quarter to a half inch of rain is possible Tuesday night with another tenth to a quarter inch Wednesday. The storm is expected to subside by Wednesday night.
Tulare County's flood hotline is 559-802-9791.
NO DRONES PLEASE
The Porterville Fire Department posted on its Facebook page not to be flying any drones over emergency locations in Porterville. Drones have been reportedly disrupting aerial respons efforts, inhibiting emergency aircraft operations and interfering with public safety personnel.
Drones flying over riverbanks and emergency areas ground aircraft that are supporting emergency responders, PFD stated. PFD added added incident air operations are suspended if drones are in the area, “causing a major interference in the mission to protect life and property.”
PF stated emrergency locations include the Tule River, bridges, waterways, Success Lake, Schafer Dam Spillway and all areas affected by the ongoing emergency.

“For the Tule River Tribe, it was imperative to tell their story. We researched their culture; they provided us with books and photos of artifacts. They were open about sharing their culture, which allowed us to find patterns within baskets to incorporate into our design that would give this property a uniqueness in the market when you look at some of the other competitive casinos because it tells their story,” stated Joe Baruffaldi, AIA, Principal, HBG Design.
“On behalf of the Tule River Tribe, I want to congratulate the Eagle Mountain Casino team for their dedication and hard work. They are the backbone of our success. We are grateful for them and all our patrons that would drive the road to the reservation to go there and enjoy some of the best entertainment in our area,” stated Neil Peyron, Chairman of the Tule River Tribe.
“Congratulations to the Tule River Tribe and the Eagle Mountain Casino team for opening our new property. We’re happy to say that the new property is Tule River through and through, as there are artifacts and basket weaves throughout the property. This is truly Eagle Mountain Casino and the Tule River Tribe’s accomplishment. We’re happy to be able to tell you we are open for business, and we can’t wait to see the smiles on your faces," stated Matthew Mingrone, General Manager at Eagle Mountain Casino.
The casino is temporarily closed due to the recent storms and road damage on the Tule River Reservation.
