Prices in the “Ukraine” column come from MediUkraine’s partner clinics. The Czech Republic and Turkey columns show the lower bounds of prices published by clinics there (for Turkey, also the Turkish Dental Association’s recommended 2026 tariff), collected in August 2026 and converted to US dollars at the rate on the day of collection. A dash means we could not find a comparable published price. In any country, the final cost is set by the clinic after an examination.
A man's hormone balance is regulated by the hypothalamic–pituitary system: the pituitary gland produces LH and FSH, which trigger testosterone production. When this link is disrupted, it is not only sexual function that suffers: muscle mass, bone strength, mood and energy levels change too. That is why the examination is ordered based on a combination of symptoms rather than a single one.
The core laboratory tests cover free and total testosterone, prolactin, LH, FSH and other markers. Based on the results, the doctor draws up an individual plan: hormone replacement therapy, medicines to stimulate the body's own hormone production, or correction of associated metabolic disorders.
The approach is tailored to the specific condition: hypogonadism, age-related androgen deficiency, fertility problems or post-traumatic changes. The first results are noticeable after 4–8 weeks of regular treatment: energy levels return to normal, and sexual function and general wellbeing improve.
Through MediUkraine you get access to urologists and andrologists who work with hormone therapy and treat patients of all ages: we book your consultation, arrange any additional tests and support you throughout the course.
Travel. Ukrainian airspace is closed, so there are no commercial flights. Uzhhorod lies right on the border with Slovakia and close to Hungary, so patients usually arrive overland from one of these two countries, by car, bus or train.
Visas. Citizens of the EU, the United Kingdom and the United States do not need a visa for short stays in Ukraine. Rules depend on your citizenship, so check your own before booking.
Safety, plainly. Ukraine is at war. Air raid alerts occur across the country, including in Uzhhorod, and an appointment can be interrupted by one. Several governments advise against travel to Ukraine, and while that advice stands, ordinary travel and medical insurance is often void — confirm your cover with your insurer before you commit to anything.
Language. MediUkraine handles correspondence, scheduling, the written treatment plan and the quote in English. The clinic's team communicates with international patients in English.
Payment. You pay the clinic directly. Our coordination service is free of charge for you.

Testosterone replacement therapy is the main treatment for testosterone deficiency in men. It is given as intramuscular injections, skin patches, gels or tablets. The form is chosen according to the degree of hypogonadism, any other conditions and individual tolerance. Replacement therapy helps restore sexual function, improves quality of life and helps prevent osteoporosis; during the course, regular monitoring of testosterone levels and prostate checks are needed.
Thyroid treatment and correction of other hormonal imbalances are prescribed for hypothyroidism, hyperprolactinaemia and dysfunction of other endocrine glands. Medicines are chosen based on laboratory results and clinical symptoms. The dose is adjusted gradually, under the control of blood hormone levels, until the desired therapeutic effect is achieved.
Stimulation therapy activates the body's own hormone production. It is recommended for younger patients with secondary hypogonadism and preserved sperm production. Through MediUkraine you can reach urologists and andrologists at the partner clinic in Uzhhorod who carry out comprehensive diagnostics and choose an individual treatment plan.
Recovery after a course of hormone therapy determines the long-term result. Once the levels are back to normal, the body needs a period of adaptation: metabolism readjusts, and energy and sexual function return. This usually takes from 3 to 6 months, depending on the nature of the disorder and your individual characteristics. Everyone recovers at a different pace, so the doctor adjusts the timeline based on follow-up tests.
At this stage the doctor orders regular laboratory monitoring of hormones to assess the effect of therapy and adjust doses in good time. At the same time, lifestyle changes are needed: regular sleep, moderate exercise, a balanced diet with enough zinc, selenium and B vitamins, and less stress.
MediUkraine arranges follow-up care at the partner clinic, taking your history into account. Follow-up visits are planned every 3 months until the levels stabilise, and it is on this schedule that the doctor decides whether to change the treatment plan.
Treatment of hormone imbalances in men does not start with medicines but with blood tests for testosterone, oestradiol, prolactin and other markers: these show at which level the disruption has occurred. An imbalance shows up as reduced libido, erectile dysfunction, loss of muscle mass, weight gain and constant fatigue.
Based on the test results and clinical picture, the doctor draws up an individual treatment plan. It may include hormone replacement therapy, medicines to stimulate the body's own hormone production, and changes to lifestyle and diet. Regular blood tests are needed both to assess the effect and to prevent side effects.
The course requires ongoing contact with an andrologist or endocrinologist. MediUkraine will recommend a qualified specialist at the partner clinic in Uzhhorod, arrange the consultation and help monitor the treatment. How long therapy lasts and what the result will be depends on your body and how severe the disorder is.
When planning treatment of hormone imbalances, consider not only the doctor's qualifications but also comfort, how quickly you can get help and confidentiality. The full cycle of treatment is available, from the first consultation to monitoring of results, without hospital admission. This makes therapy consistent and its costs transparent.
Treatment of hormone imbalances costs noticeably less in Ukraine than in most European countries, without compromising the quality of care. This is not about cutting corners on technology but about streamlined processes, available equipment and moderate administrative costs. Ukrainian endocrinologists and andrologists work to international standards, and the predictability of the result comes from following the protocol and monitoring hormone levels.
Treatment follows international protocols with current methods, including hormone therapy and physiotherapy programmes. Part of your care can be provided remotely, which suits men with a busy schedule.
Key advantages of treating hormone imbalances in Ukraine:
• lower cost without compromising quality;
• transparent pricing with no hidden charges;
• equipment that ensures comfort, confidentiality and accurate results.
The safety of treating hormone imbalances relies on following international protocols for diagnosis and therapy. MediUkraine's partner clinic works with licensed laboratories that measure testosterone, LH, FSH and other hormones. Establishing the exact cause of the disorder is the precondition for a personalised plan that keeps the risk of side effects low.
The clinic follows the standards approved by the Ministry of Health of Ukraine and the guidelines of the European Association of Urology. The examination includes an assessment of thyroid function, prolactin levels and other markers. Hormone therapy is prescribed after contraindications have been ruled out, and your condition is then monitored regularly.
MediUkraine puts you in touch with the partner clinic in Uzhhorod, where a urologist assesses your condition, orders tests if needed and advises where and how to continue treatment. This way you get a thorough examination and clear next steps without having to look for a clinic yourself.
📍 Uzhhorod, Ukraine
A multidisciplinary hospital in Uzhhorod, part of a network of medical facilities in western Ukraine: an outpatient clinic, a surgical centre covering 15 specialties and a 30-bed inpatient unit. Its 52 doctors include professors and PhDs; many operations are done as day surgery, with discharge after 1–2 days.
A hormone imbalance is a condition in which testosterone, prolactin, LH, FSH, cortisol or thyroid hormones are outside the normal range. Treatment starts with laboratory tests; the doctor then chooses hormone therapy, restores the function of the hypothalamic–pituitary system, helps you manage your weight if needed, and treats inflammatory and metabolic disorders.
The first step is a urologist consultation at the partner clinic, from USD 20. The doctor gives the test and treatment plan and its cost after the examination: they depend on the tests needed, which hormones need correcting and how long therapy lasts. MediUkraine will help you get a cost estimate before you travel.
Reasons to book an appointment: reduced libido, fatigue, low mood, weight gain, changes in muscle mass, sleep problems, erection problems, mood swings, reduced stamina or breast enlargement (gynaecomastia). After the age of 35, it is worth checking your hormones as a preventive measure too, even without symptoms.
Blood is taken in the morning on an empty stomach. For 48 hours beforehand, avoid intense workouts, alcohol, overheating and sex. On the day before the tests, try to keep stress to a minimum. If you take medicines that affect hormones, tell the doctor before your blood is taken.
Yes, in most cases therapy can be combined with treatment of other conditions, but the plan is adapted to your health. Men with cardiovascular, endocrine and autoimmune diseases need particular attention.
The time it takes depends on the condition and the treatment method. With testosterone replacement therapy, the first changes are noticeable after 2–3 weeks (more energy, higher libido), and a significant result after 3–6 months. Bone strength and muscle mass usually improve over 6–12 months of regular treatment. With hypothyroidism or hyperprolactinaemia, the body adapts to the prescribed medicines within 4–8 weeks.
Most patients need one visit to the specialist followed by monitoring every 3 months until the levels stabilise. MediUkraine will help you find a urologist or endocrinologist who will draw up a treatment plan based on your tests and clinical picture. The doctor will give you exact timelines at the first consultation, once the diagnostic results are in.
The answer depends on the type and cause of the disorder. Functional testosterone deficiency caused by obesity, stress or a sedentary lifestyle can often be reversed completely through lifestyle changes and medication. Hormonal dysfunction caused by diseases of the pituitary, thyroid or other endocrine glands, on the other hand, usually requires long-term replacement therapy to keep hormone levels normal.
The key is timely diagnosis and an individual approach: available treatments make it possible to control symptoms and prevent complications. MediUkraine will find an endocrinologist or andrologist who will draw up a treatment plan for your case. After that, everything depends on regular follow-up tests and following the doctor's instructions.
