Invaluable info, and mucho appreciated ! Its defintely helping me circumnavigate the TRT rabbit warren which seems Huge! :). My TRT journey started in June 2020 when i crashed my motorcycle on a UK race track in the wet at 80-90mph into an earth embankment tyre wall (ouch !). Very lucky to be still here, and the list is way too long of all my physical injuries, but included multiple fractures etc with worst being broken neck & my spine in 7 places. Got some awesome Xrays lol (attached!). I can walk (slowly) & talk so i aint complaining :). I was a fit & healthy 49 year old (13st) time of crash, into light weights (toning), complete Natty and still had my own Natty 17yr old libido (like a dog with 2 dicks) with no signs of T drop off (No idea what my T was only guess high end!).
