TRT and birth defects?

[BackToRegular]

Are there any studies on the effects of TRT or exogenous testosterone on the likelihood of birth defects? I know TRT lowers spermatogenesis but don’t know of any impacts on child development.

TRT won't change your semen or sperm. It will shut down the production or slow down the production. It will not alter it and cause birth defects.

Thanks Vince. Can the same be said about HCG?

Thanks again. Have you come across any studies that corroborate this?

No I haven't seen any studies. But I know trt doesn't cause any birth defects. Many men on testosterone get their mates pregnant, I've never heard of trt causing any birth defect issues. Something would have came up by now.
