[QUOTE="Dr. John Crisler, post: 1930, member: 91"] I could not disagree more. I would definitely call hypogonadism a chronic condition. What condition could possibly be more chronic than this? It affects every single cell in the body, and makes us sick, weak, depressed, impotent, and die younger. It also happens to be the most underdiagnosed, and therefore untreated, malady today. In fact, many--in spite of thousands of studies to the contrary--do not even think it is an issue! The desire to simplify treatment is a false complaint. First, we have to figure out HOW to treat. Then we will work on the rest. Just because you do not have any serious issues complicating your personal TRT regimen (and everyone is glad for that) does not mean others do not as well. In fact, at least 1/4 of all men who suffer hypogonadism (just my best guess at this point, by my own clinical experience) are "complicated" cases requiring more, sometimes much more, expert analysis and treatment. We are not making this more complicated for the simple desire to do so! What we do, we do because this is a brand new area of medicine, and we have only begun to scratch the surface. Patient after patient after patient come before us, and bewilder us. Are you suggesting we stop expanding our skills, and abandon all hope of treating everyone? If your particular situation easily resolves, then your average local PCP can surely handle it. But IF there are estrogen, SHBG, receptor, PFS, hyperexcretion, hypermetabolization, etc etc issues, then you can either seek the guidance of a well-practiced expert, or die young and unhappy. In short, if a one-size-fits-all, cookie cutter approach is the way to go, there isn't much point in being here. I really do not like looking down our noses at those who have more complicated issues. They are just trying to be healthy and happy, too, and deserve to be. just like everyone with a medical condition. Going to the gym is a real hassle. In fact, it is much more time, effort, and expense costly than any TRT regimen. But one must do it. It's just how a man lives. ...the same goes for the other things he must do to be healthy and happy. Like his TRT regimen. And it is harder to eat right. All that cutting and chopping and so forth..... [/QUOTE]
