As expected, my T levels were sort of low.
510 ng/dl. Not great, not terrible.
My goal is to get my levels up to the higher end of the range. Some important information:
-Some bodybuilder types are running around at 2,000-3,000 ng/dl!!!! Normal levels are 300-1200.
-Cases of guys "shrinking their balls" with TRT are evidently rare.
-There is medication to boost your natural testosterone production.
-None of this is cheap.
As a guy over 40, I've toyed with the idea of getting on TRT.
I've been hesitant for one big reason- the cloudy science behind it all, exacerbated by aggressive marketing (I inherently distrust advertising).
I get ads saying TRT is great, and others warning of bad side effects, so you should use their peptides (or xyz supplement).
What is to be believed?
Where does the marketing end, and the science begin?
Serious question.
