T Therapy (Men) (cardio, effects, females, testosterone)

[Florida2014]

Any males (or females with husbands/boyfriends) have experience with a hormone therapy clinic where they can supply testosterone to get your hormone levels in check? Looking for pros and cons of this service. If you haven't done it, no need to respond with snark (or.....at all). TIA!

According to my urologist, it won't cause prostate cancer but it can accelerate its growth if you have it. It'll also raise you PSA. Pros are that it'll make you feel better, and will raise your blood counts if you're anemic.

You might be better off getting such therapy from your doctor or urologist, rather than a hormone clinic.

Re: Cardiovascular events. I imagine that the T-boosts a persons desire and energy to work out, unfortunately those who have likely been sedentary for their adult lives all of a sudden w/ a burst of desire to get fit over do things and cause their demise/incidents.

I'd like someone who studies research studies to critically look at the demographics of the sample. I'd guess they were fat, overwt, old men who over did things. Could be wrong.
