Thank you for sharing this. It's not just about how we live as men, but how we al live...and die. The choices we make or don't make. The calculated/informed risks we're willing to take to have a better quality of life, even it shortens that life. As Joseph Campbell said, “Participate joyfully in the sorrows of the world. We cannot cure the world of sorrows, but we can choose to live in joy".
 
"We cannot cure the world of sorrows, but we can choose to live in joy

OMG Yes! That the world should universally be a happy place, like Disneyland, is a total fantasy. This is not the world we live in. The starting place for correct decisions is to identify the truth of what is. The truth is the amount of tragedy we all must live through varies in style and amount, BUT we all live through it. The triumph of the human spirit is to find real joy in transcending our humanity. "Make believe" IS NOT overcoming. It is mental illness. Facing reality and overcoming it is humanity at its best.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
