There are over 50 different hormones in the human body. Even in small amounts, a hormone can have a significant impact on the way we function. That’s why Prima CARE is proud to staff talented endocrinologists and offer a Men’s Health Clinic specifically for men’s hormone-related conditions. Our office is located at 277 Pleasant Street in Fall River.
Prima CARE offers a Men's Health Clinic for men's hormone-related conditions. Dr. Alaa Kubbar and Dr. Kishore Lakshman see men with concerns such as low testosterone. Low testosterone is diagnosed with symptoms plus repeat morning blood tests, not symptoms alone. When treatment is needed, regular lab checks are used because testosterone therapy can affect blood counts, fertility and other health conditions.
Endocrinology is the study of the endocrine system, which is responsible for controlling hormones. Endocrinologists are specially trained to diagnose and treat diseases related to the body’s glands.
