    New to TRT. Received first labs. Concerned and need help.

    I wonder if the men who had high testosterone levels. For years had low testosterone which caused them to have bone mineral density issues. If they would went on TRT at a younger age. Hopefully they never would had have any bone density issues.

    The study in question found evidence supporting an inverted U-shaped association between testosterone levels and bone mineral density in elderly men. However, it's important to note that this is a single study and further research is likely needed to solidify these findings and determine causality.

    Haha well, thank you for your response. I definitely agree. We all need to work on our VO2 max and lift weights. We wouldn't have to play around with our T levels so much and inject crazy protocols. I hope your workouts are good.

    Yes, exactly. Higher doses did not work for you. And there are others who get anxiety from TRT. Most thrive on higher levels. Work on your VO2 max and your weight training. The benefits are great.

    You can't expect everyone to get anxiety from testosterone. I believe it's a lot smaller than you think. "Remember" the top two things we can do for longevity is vo2 Max and weight training. https://www.excelmale.com/threads/vo2-max-the-gold-standard.32548/

    People with anxiety issues usually struggle with TRT. For some anxiety it gets worse when they throw testosterone in the mix.

    Help identifying this arm injury??

    These are my thoughts. I'm not saying any of this will help. For now I would train around it. I had a really bad right elbow could not straighten my arm. My buddies talked me into bowling so I got the lightest ball I could find and used that. By the end of the season I was completely healed...
