He mentions Bhasin's latest paper when speaking about TT vs FT!
==========
45:34-58:43 (TT vs FT. estradiol/AI, hematocrit)
In this episode, Dr. Steinberg sits down with world-renowned testosterone therapy pioneer Dr. Abraham Morgentaler. From studying testosterone in lizards at Harvard to becoming a leading academic urologist, Dr. Morgentaler shares his journey and challenges long-standing beliefs surrounding testosterone therapy.They explore the decades-old fear linking testosterone to prostate cancer, why traditional testosterone testing can be misleading, and how modern research is reshaping the way testosterone deficiency is understood and treated.
Key Topics:

Dr. Abraham Morgentaler
* what's important to understand though is that the concept of testosterone therapy in theory is designed to replicate youthful levels of testosterone to help people who are deficient in this hormone, the goal isn't to make them into supermen and the real question is why do people want to go above normal if at all, much of the concept of treating up lets say a 1000 let's say our normal upper limit, in the anti-aging community or age management community there are some people who believe the there's an optimal level of testosterone that may be 1200 or 1500 or even I've heard 1800 and the basis for that is WEAK!
==============
* Optimal results often require T values in the upper range of normal (T 600-900 ng/dL)
* Some groups target T levels 1200-1800 ng/dL
* Supraphysiological/pharmacological rather than restoration of robust youthful levels
=======
*However some men won't achieve adequate response until total T in upper levels of normal 650-1000 ng/dL
=======
* In this analysis, we describe the clinical and biochemical features of men with markedly elevated SHBG levels who exhibited unequivocally low free testosterone concentrations, measured using rigorously validated equilibrium dialysis assay. Despite unequivocally low free testosterone concentrations, some of these men showed mid- to high-normal or even total testosterone levels above the reference range, creating a striking divergence between total and free testosterone concentrations. Notably, all met predefined criteria for primary hypogonadism (1). These findings...

Hey there! I had my T checked, it came in around 520, which is "normal". But if 350 is low, then I think I'm low. Also, my doc did not provide me the free T.
My goal primarily is to use T to help improve myself. I'm not obese, but kinda skinny fat and would love help with this. Every day I get out of bed... it's just a drag. I have 3 kids, I love them, but after they're in bed I have no energy... libido has flat-lined.
I do have three questions.
One, what are some things that you look for in a reliable TRT clinic or doctor's office? What should I look out for or avoid? I've...
