Pure Qanon or MAGA propaganda! Muscle wasting has nothing to do with gender, it is about LIVING. Men cannot continue to work or be productive when Low T causes muscle wasting! T is NOTHING about sexual performance. That is TV COMMERCIALS selling snake oil to insecure men. Real T helps.

And irrational rage, but I stopped taking it within days so forget which one. So T is not a cure all, or sexual enhancer. Those TV Commercials are BS! Selling snake oil to insecure men and do nothing for libido. Look up Kisspeptin. It is used to help nonsexual people get aroused. It works for th

Medicines I take to function without pain LOWER T. They put me on T. NOTHING for me. Talking big doses, raised the blood levels, but no help with exhaustion or fatigue. And I had NO sexual function issues at all with Low T. That NEVER changed. There was another steroid that did trigger irritation

Not really. The most common med for treating balding is Finasteride which just blocks the enzyme which converts testosterone into dihydrogentestosterone(DHT) which causes baldness. Now, in the US, Spironolactone is a diarrhetic and treatment for hormonal acne, but can also be used to lower T levels.

Opioids lower T. Some depression meds lower T. Normal aging will see T decline too.

Even if you're not using it for gender anything it's still considered that and will most likely become a lot harder to get or impossible soon. Might be a good time to find an alternative

I STOPPED it after 3 months! I had NO need for it, it was nasty. Blood thickened to the point of having to donate blood. Anastrazole to lower Estrodil estrogen levels. I was losing my hair at 48. I do NOT need testosterone for any reason. Again my reason was meds induced, so I cut them out.

I didn't see where you had said you stopped them. I do understand the reason you were taking them. I just didn't see you had stopped (: it is good that you don't need it though, but still, for people that do, they will need to find a replacement somehow
