[QUOTE="Cataceous, post: 249273, member: 38109"] I've been arguing in favor of this viewpoint for some time now. We know that testosterone interacts with a multitude of other hormones, so it's not a stretch to suggest that an excess of testosterone relative to what's appropriate for an individual is going to cause problems. I've also argued that average testosterone levels are already optimized by evolution, selected to give the best chance of reproductive success, which I further argue is a decent marker for overall success in life. There's a possible counter-argument, which says that conditions have changed for recent generations, with less exercise, poor diets, obesity and endocrine-disrupting chemicals all contributing to emasculation. Nonetheless, I'd say this is an argument for being a little above average, not for putting everyone in the top 10%. And there are still going to be some men who do better with below-average levels. This should be acknowledged, and the low-and-slow approach should be applied to TRT as a matter of course. [/QUOTE]
