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.

Exactly. What people don't understand is even though the doctor many times will write 4 refills for a 6 month period, it's a controlled substance. So the pharmacy will only give you the supply based off the dosage you are prescribed.

So I get one 10ml vial for 12 weeks. The pharmacy will not give me another before then unless my doctor calls and request snd I better have a damn good reason like it fell out of solution and I better provide proof.
.you can't really abuse it.

The same doctors that some of these same posters will say don't know what they're talking about concerning other issues

Im not criticizing or implying people abuse it. Like I said, there are many people that have a legitimate medical use that should be using.

But I also think there's probably a lot of 35 year old dudes that are 20-30 lbs overweight, don't exercise, and sleep like shite that would rather get a shot once a week than take control over thee life.

There's people that get told they're going to be diabetic and end up on an insulin pump for the rest of their life for God's sake
