[QUOTE="TLawyer, post: 232623, member: 40115"] Natesto (or Empower's version) is completely different than the cream you'd put on your skin in lieu of injections. I would have your son read up on it. The key is that what might not work for you might actually work him. We're all different. A 26-year-old may have success with Natesto, whereas you may have been much older when you tried it and didn't have success. It was approved only about 8 years ago, so you would have been substantially older when you tried it, assuming that you actually did. Jatenzo may have also been an option to pursue. Are you familiar with it? Knowledge is power. Why not? Did you educate him on the possible benefits? You specifically talked to him about Enclomiphene? A knowlgeable doctor could have done that for him, or he could have researched it on this site. He also could have discussed additional options rather than the cookie cutter approach that you gave him. Many of us are on this site because we aren't seeing the results that we were hoping for. When you say something like "we are ALL seeing the results we were hoping for," that's just not true. Some have had negative results from TRT and come off of it. I don't think anyone is calling TRT evil - I am using it myself. I don't believe that we're concerned about the size of the syringe as much as what's actually inside the syringe. Open forum here. If you don't want people to comment, don't post stories on a public forum about giving your son testosterone. There are some who will applaud your approach, there are some who won't. I'm in the latter camp. That's great news. I am glad that the system has worked out for you as it was intended. I hope that you are appreciative of what you have compared to many third world countries. Please don't levy those cutting personal attacks against me. I'm too delicate. Do you know the meaning of the phrase "the pot calling the kettle black?" Everyone has the ability to go back and read what you wrote. They don't need to rely on my representation of it. They can make their own judgments as to whether you've given solid advice. If I was really trying to be an "asshole," I would have written that you're not "smart enough" like you wrote above about me, or call you names like you have here about me. What's your definition of "professional?" If I question your judgment on dispensing medical advice to your son based on your years of anabolic steroid use, that isn't unprofessional. My concern is that he doesn't harm himself further. If by "supportive" you mean blowing smoke up your ass and telling you how great you are for reasons that aren't readily apparent to me, then yes, I haven't been supportive of you. The name calling would qualify as another example of personal attacks. Again, disagreeing with you doesn't mean we're assholes. Your son is 26-years-old, so at this point I wouldn't call it "poor parenting." He's a grown man and needs to make his own decision. I'd just call it "misguided and poor advice" you gave him.
