That's the same attitude that causes people to bury themselves in credit card debt.

Typical sex-addicted homo. Of course he’d take the T; he probably knows (at least on a subconscious level) that his lifespan will be shortened by his lifestyle, so why not live it up?

That's the same attitude that causes people to bury themselves in credit card debt. Personally, I would rather live til 70 with a high quality of life, than live til 80 with a low quality of life.

So you define “quality of life” as borrowed money?

the quality of life may differ, person to person.
Sex, although important, is only one ingredient of living a comfortable and rewarding lifestyle.

I’m old enough now to know you do NOT fool with Mother Nature. Am also watching a niece who’s developed “estrogen induced cancer” that metastasized very, very quickly. There are treatments, but they only buy time. I’d be very cautious about any drug, much less any optional drug. But then again, I’ve had many of my “tomorrows” as Roberts would view it.

Sex, although important, is only one ingredient of living a comfortable and rewarding lifestyle. Sex drive is not the only thing that's affected by testosterone. Low testosterone can lead to insomnia, loss of muscle mass, loss of bone density, loss of energy, depression, and reduced mental function.

I have been on testosterone therapy for several years. My doctor is very cautious and closely follows my PSA and red blood count both of which can be raised by testosterone as well as testosterone levels. I have had sleep apnea treated with a CPAP so that risk is not of concern. The studies linking testosterone therapy to increased risk of heart attack or stroke or testicular cancer are inconclusive. The latest studies actually show a decrease in stroke and heart attack in men on testosterone therapy.
Don't believe either the hype of the drug company TV ads or ads being run by ambulance chasing lawyers. Have a frank discussion with your doctor about any symptoms, have a blood test for testosterone levels and then with your doctor's help make an informed decision.

The good thing is that low T can be dramatically affected by diet (quit eating all the highly processed swill) and supplementation. Iodine, Boron, ZMA, certain aminos and herbs can dramatically affect T levels in a much safer fashion. Besides all of the above have many other positive health benefits.
The same goes for women undergoing Hormone Replacement Therapy, the hormonal imbalances can be accomplished much more safely with the above. However, big pharma doesn’t do as well when we approach things from a more natural viewpoint.

agreed - but a number of posts had to do with sex

Actually, exercise—especially heavy squats increase testosterone naturally without any side effects. The effects of many supplements are not well researched. Most increase serum T, but show little effect on healthy subjects.
Gynecomastia is directly linked to precursor hormonal use. Bodies can be fooled by supplements, but the effects can be disastrous without proper use. Cycling, estrogen blocking, and step down programs are essential, but many, if not most, OTC supplements do not not offer a complete solution.
