[QUOTE="Tintin, post: 235952, member: 41298"] It's an interesting perspective. I had the idea to cycle on and off nasal testosterone after watching this video where Leo and Lucy discuss supplementing with testosterone during difficult life circumstances: [MEDIA=youtube]DAg3Yz_uaIQ[/MEDIA] YouTube search on Natesto lead me to this video: [MEDIA=youtube]nRaSoF78lvQ[/MEDIA] I have gained almost 40 pounds since December 2021. My total T was around 350 when I was leaner, and interestingly, my free T was comparable to that of my personal trainer at the time, even though his total T was around 1000 naturally. Getting leaner has an enormous impact on my well-being and my sexual health. Right now, though, I struggle mightily to lose weight. It's really slow going, and my motivation and focus are poor.
