Let’s say I, a middle aged cis man went to my doctor, wanting gender affirming care, and my doctor wanted to provide - what, if anything, would the treatment/care consist of? Just making sure my testosterone level was up to Hegseth-approved standards?

    I’ve heard multiple times that using testosterone supplements degrades your body’s ability to make testosterone naturally. So once you start using supplements you always have to use them. Otherwise they sound interesting. Just a few injections and I can type in ALL CAPS whenever I want? Sign me up.

      if you already naturally make low T amounts, TEST supplementation wouldnt affect that anyways. its the people who are anabolic steroids, or the rever estrogen. some people will go as far to use Synthetic INSULIN too.
