The Problem With Low Dose Testosterone Replacement!

[@EddieBonez1000]

Exactly, what I was thinking? Like what’s considered a low dose to you sir ?? Only good thing about this video is the comment section, where all us guys trying to feel great and enjoy life to its fullest! We learn from each other, and I appreciate that!

[@EddieBonez1000]

I’ve been to 2 Urologist Dr.’s, and an endocrinologist, and they all seem dumb AF. I’ve learned more watching KZbin than talking to them asking questions.. and they are all hesitant on prescribing me TRT with levels of 140, at 47yrs old.

[@EddieBonez1000]

You basically said nothing! No examples of a low dose, or scenarios with guys you know, trying this and that,, Nothing!

[@daviddabrow6083]

Would have been nice to have actually given some useful numbers. Waste of time

[@abcdefgh4404]

Stop concerning about numbers and ranges and be concern about symptoms. So simple: If 800 ng/DL is not solving the symptoms, increases the dose until symptoms gone. If you feel perfect on 1200 ng/ dL stay on it.

[@krane15]

Treat the patient, not the numbers. That said, you still need to number to help monitor the rest of your body's functions and to keep everything in balance. Too much can be a bad thing but you can't tell that without the numbers.

I'm not sure what the purpose of this video was. It seems to answer nothing that anyone watching this video is likely to be looking for.

Anti-aging clinics recommend dose, 200mg a week. Urologist/Endocrinologist doctors recommend dose, 50mg a week.

[@markgooch1715]

So I take 100mg a week. That too low? My levels are well above the ranges for TT, FT, E2. Appreciate your commentary, but it’s a bit basic and obvious: some more details may be helpful here.

[@drewsss49]

Well how do you feel? Some people feel great on 80mg some may need 200. I’m new to this too but numbers almost mean nothing if you feel like shit

[@skiyoe]

Let's be more specific please, some are seeking guidance.

[@NotBob-zw3zw]

The question that none of these so called TRT experts seem to know the answer to is, "Should one stay at the lower end of the normal range or at a higher end of normal range thats conducive to longevity ?" For example if my T levels are 150 should I take an exogenous amount that brings my levels upto 400 or brings it upto 1000 ? Both 400 and 1000 are normal T levels in a healthy adult male. 400 is on the lower normal range and 1000 is at the higher normal range. Ofcourse everybody knows quality of life improves the higher you go but it can shorten your life. Thats why bodybuilders on juice dont live long. So question is for longevity, should you aim for a 400 or a 1000 ?

[@counterbalancelife4305]

"Bodybuilders on juice" are on 2-3x+ the highest TRT dosage stacked with multiple other anabolics, growth factors, and whatever else. BB has little to do with health as a goal. I'd hesitate drawing any life expectancy comparisons between BB's and TRT patients. One possible answer would be to have a man's complete hormone profile tested when in his young prime as a baseline for that individuals' own optimal levels. That may serve as better healthy guideline for future hormonal optimization. Certainly the "normal" reference range is not an ideal guide.

[@NotBob-zw3zw]

@@counterbalancelife4305 Please read my question again. Clearly you did not understand what I was asking

[@counterbalancelife4305]

​@@NotBob-zw3zw I could have been mistaken. This was my interpretation: You aren't sure whether adjusting your (now abnormally low) T level to the lower part of the "normal" range or the higher part of the "normal" range would be best for longevity's sake, correct? I'm suggesting you wouldn't have a good starting guide unless you knew your total and free T levels from your prime. That would be your non TRT "normal". This seems to be very individual while the reference range is generic. You didn't mention symptom relief, however, and a low T state (which seems to also be individual) is shown to adversely effect the heart which would be a longevity factor to consider. I'm in this situation and trying to find my sweet spot. Without an earlier healthy reference test to look at I started low and and working my way up, noting symptom relief along the way. Longevity is a concern for me as well. My point about BB's is that they are not a group to look at as examples of men in high end of the T reference range. Their BB period is spent at levels far, far above it. They should be considered, at best, freak outliers with regard to TRT health implications.

[@MrThe1234guy]

I don't know cuz I have only read but I've read don't look at the number go by how you feel

[@eventhori3on]

It's crazy that this guy gives patients advice.. he knows less than an 18 year old gym bro! Do your research please guys. Find a well regarded clinic who are up there speed with the latest information and dosing protocols. If your doing TRT for the gym... Don't do it..if you are doing it as you are low and want to get your levels back in to mid to high normal range with good bloods and good blood pressure whilst est mg well sleeping well and exercising then your good to go! Just find a knowledgeable clinic and remember.. it doesn't work for everyone. I spent 2 years dialling it in and I eventually stopped.. as I felt no real benefit for the possible risk. But that's your call

“Make sure you keep your dose at our ultra high and unnecessary starting dose, don’t come back here with any complaints, and make sure you schedule an appointment every 10 Weeks, because our partner pharmacy is breathing down our necks”

[@NotBob-zw3zw]

This guy is not even making sense. Who does this ultra low dose t ? does this guys brain even working ? you do testosterone replacement because you want your t level to be raised back upto what it was when you were younger. your dosage should be such that your t level mimic what your normal levels were. Never heard of this nonsense before. people either do high dose as in bodybuilders or low dose as in getting back to normal range. never ever heard of such a thing as to ultra low dose. whats the point ? To raise your T from 150 to 165 ? what a waste of everyones time. next time make video about something that makes sense. for example how doe t levels affect longevity WITHIN the normal range.

[@TraderRoss]

His message was easy to understand. MY primary dr put me on 1 shot 200mg a month & 3 days were good & the rest of the month nothing & I was watching YT & figured out that's useless. Then he changed it to 100mg every 2 weeks. Referred me to a endo but didn't have an app. for 2 months. I went to a TRT clinic & started 150 a week then 160 then now 170mg for past 4 weeks. Feel much better.

Does low dose TRT supplement shut down endogenous testosterone production? I would doubt that. Where is the literature that shows that low dose TRT shuts down production of own testosterone?

[@davincibz1]

It does, man. I thought the same thing as you once, but you will get shut down regardless of dose. If your body does not make it (and it does in pulses) and has a continuous flow in the blood, the HPTA will cut down production.

[@ocwaveoc69]

@@davincibz1 cut down production or shut down? Has there been a scientific research that actually shows data on this? Also, once TRT is stopped has there been a study that shows whether endogenous production of testosterone eventually resumes to pretreatment level?

@@ocwaveoc69 Listen carefully: its all or nothing. Natural testosterone and exogenous testosterone DO NOT WORK TOGETHER. Its a hormone, not a vitamin supplement.

Yes, that's why its not advised. TRT does not supplement. Its all or nothing. Otherwise, you will shut down your body's natural production (even though its low) and replace it with an even lower exogenous dose. Effective, you went from bad, to worse.

Dosage will always depend on the individual. This "Dr." doesn't know what he's talking about. For example, I'm on trt at .6mg bi- weekly injections. My free T levels are in the 900's. and .6mg is a "low dose." Someone comparable may need double that to achieve the same result.

[@NotBob-zw3zw]

This guy doesn;t know anything. Dont ask him. Usually 200 mg is the standard dose. but everyone metabolizes T differently. you want the lowest amount of drug to do the job. if 100 mg does the job then don't go higher. after you do you 100 mg do test your levels. you want to be slightly higher than average but within normal range. if 100 mg puts you there, great. if it don't then raise it a little bit.

OK then captain say nothing whatsoever of any use 😂 a typical trt dose could be 125mg a week or 100mg a week or 80 mg a week but these dosages can be split in half so 62.5mg/50mg/40mg every 3.5 days and also dosages can depend on shbg and dose frequency depending on esther used but all that really matters if your estradiol
