Introduction of New Member Positive for Factor V

[vood13]

Greetings all.
Nelson, love this site. It has helped me navigate my 2 years of TRT safely and has been an endless source of quality information.
I have recently tested positive for Factor V Leiden and have been advised by my TRT doc to stop therapy. I have NOT had any kind of thrombosis event occur. I am curious of the opinions of anyone on this site in regards to terminating therapy without any thrombosis event occurring.
Any questions regarding my therapy/history will be glady answered if necessary.
Thanks.

Can Testosterone Induce Blood Clots and Thrombosis? Interview with Dr Charles Glueck

Thanks Vince. Read through this after I got diagnosed, seems like an inconclusive claim at best.

Any updates in 2023? I have 1 part Factor V and not sure whether to start TRT or not. I'm 39, great physical shape but very low testosterone. Tried all natural ways to boost it without much success. I'm interested to know if you're still on TRT.

Here is part 2 of the interview. It seems that additional tests would give you a clearer view to make a decision.
