Confidence & Intimacy
Confidence & Intimacy
Discreet, Effective, Transformative
Sexual wellness is an important component of overall health that is vital to patients' general happiness and wellbeing. Sexual wellness often gets ignored by general practitioners because patients might feel embarrassed to discuss issues regarding intimate wellness.
With age comes wisdom. But age also can bring changes to our bodies. These changes impact our sexual wellness as well as overall health and wellbeing. Women go through menopause while men also go through hormonal changes. These changes can result in decreased energy levels and low sex drive.
Here at AMD International, we'll talk sex, because we understand the vital role it plays in our lives. We want all our patients to feel comfortable discussing their most intimate concerns. That's why we're here. Our founder, Christopher Asandra, MD, is an expert on vitality, anti-aging treatments and hormone replacement therapy.

About Sexual Wellness
Many factors can increase the natural hormonal changes that come with age. Whether you're a man suffering from erectile dysfunction, or a woman experiencing vaginal dryness that results in painful intercourse, know that you're not alone. We understand the damaging effects that declining sexual well being can have on your confidence, and in turn, potentially straining the closest relationship you have.
One common misperception is that erectile dysfunction (ED) and low testosterone are the same things. They can be connected but it isn't as simple as a cause and effect relationship. As men turn 30, testosterone starts to abate. Low testosterone can affect ED, but it's not the only cause of ED.
Causes of Erectile Dysfunction:
Your Consultation
Establishing an open and honest dialogue is the first and most important step in developing a treatment plan to enhance your sexual wellbeing. Your comfort is of utmost importance to us. AMD International remains a place where people can come and talk about the most sensitive issues regarding sexual wellness.
During your consultation, Dr. Asandra will listen to your concerns and analyze your blood work. After a thorough review of your goals and expectations, he can explore different options with you. All treatment plans are customized to the individual. By tailoring our strategy for sexual wellness to each patient we can find the solution to achieve the vitality you once enjoyed.
Healthy Benefits of Hormone Therapy:
Our Treatments
Different individuals will benefit the most from different treatments. AMD International offers multiple evidence-based options for both men and women.
AMD International offers a unique innovation in hormone replacement therapy. Instead of a shot that would require you to come in every week or two, we use a time-release pellet. This ensures you receive a steady stream of the hormones that benefit you the most. With the pellet treatment, men only need to come in every 4 months or so while women should come in every 3 months.
PRP therapy has emerged as an innovative and effective way to treat a variety of conditions. PRP treatments leverage the regenerative power of your blood. Our blood contains platelets that have regenerative potential. Our platelets help heal injuries and get over illnesses. PRP therapy involves taking a sample of your blood, then concentrating the platelets in a centrifuge before purifying it and reinjecting it into the treatment area.
Our pituitary gland naturally regulates our bodies' production of hormones. As we age, our hormonal levels change. In some patients, injecting human growth hormone, composed of dozens of essential amino acids, boosts their activity levels, sex drive and resolves issues relating to their sexual wellbeing.
Like many aspects of health, sexual wellness begins with diet and exercise. With the proper nutrition and regular exercise, we give our bodies the best chance at remaining at peak efficiency, which has a direct impact on sexual wellbeing.
Cliovana is a non-invasive procedure that uses acoustic wave technology to increase blood flow and nerve sensitivity in the clitoral area. This painless treatment stimulates the tissues, creating a natural reaction in the body that improves arousal, lubrication, and orgasm intensity.
Candidates for AMD International's treatments include anyone who doesn't feel like they used to regarding sexual wellness. Everyone deserves to feel great about their sex life. If for any reason, you aren't experiencing the sexual activity you wish to experience, you can benefit from a consultation with AMD International.
Lifestyle & Sexual Health
Often, there is no single cause of diminished testosterone but rather a confluence of factors related to lifestyle.
Soy-based protein powder and soy products can increase estrogen levels and block testosterone production. Several studies show that soy-based products have been found to decrease testosterone. The soy molecule is similar to the estrogen molecule. Soy can be a great treatment for women going through menopause but for men, soy can reduce testosterone levels.
Some studies indicate that dairy products correlate with low testosterone levels. This could be the result of cows being fed increasingly soy-based products.
Both data-based surveys and our anecdotal reports here at AMD International confirm that excessive intake of alcohol reduces testosterone levels. It can also cause many other health risks so we advise drinking in moderation.
Cholesterol serves as one of the building blocks of testosterone. Sometimes cholesterol blockers can inhibit testosterone production.
Researchers found correlations between certain dietary patterns and low testosterone levels. Bread, pastries, and desserts, hallmarks of a "Western-style" diet can increase the risk of low testosterone.
Activity and testosterone levels often form a feedback loop. With low testosterone, people feel less energetic. But, with less activity testosterone can decrease. You want to create a positive feedback loop. Our wellness therapies help boost your testosterone levels so you can create that virtuous cycle.
