But if you are done having kids and your test is low, I don't blame people.
My question, I guess, is why are so many more youngish men having issues with low test?
Maybe they aren't, maybe they always have been, but we're just now learning to diagnose it.
With no knowledge of it though, it seems trt has become more popular as people have become fatter, lazier, and more reliant on medicines.
Im willing to be wrong on that, just my observation.

This is the biggest thing, but also I think it also is diagnosed way more. Back in the 80s and 90s it was just considered normal to be tired and age fast in one's 30s and 40s. I think people now are like...frick that, if I don't have to why would I kind of thing.
But I do know testosterone levels on average are way down. I think its more lifestyle and lack of physical culture. I mean less than 10% of men even perform any form of resistance training and maybe half of them actually train.
Snd for many, gym time is really only physical activity they get. And unfortunately in many ways weight training is still considered trashy especially along the coast.

Typically this is the explanation I see from doctors. People think feeling like shite all the time, not sleeping, having zero energy and feeling like you're on death's door is a "normal" part of aging so they just deal with it.
And I've asked this to those that criticize trt, how exactly can you abuse it? You have a doctor that prescribes doses that very specifically get you to a range to that of a mid-twenties to early thirties man.
Yes, you benefit greatly from test levels in that range. Do you walk around like Arnold in his prime because of it? Nope, it's impossible from those very controlled doses. You'd run out of a 2 month supply in a week if you're trying to run some juicing style cycle.
