This video is very informative. It prompted me to seek out TRT for myself. At 67, I’ve been experiencing many of the issues with low T. So I reached out to Peter MD and referenced your discount code. It saved me some money. So I’ve been on TRT for a week and already feel better. More energy, clearing brain fog, and I expect more improvements. Thank you for suggesting Peter MD.

[@40OverFashion]

Glad it was helpful! Thank you for sharing!

[@SilvernFit]

Thank you for the video. I'm almost 53 and I was experiancing much of the same. I've been with Peter MD for a year now. Getting my blood panel and medication was easy and seamless. Great Practice and I'm very satisfied. I recommend Peter MD as well. TRT has changed my life for the best!

Love your openness about this issue (testosterone decrease in men over a certain age group) and your candid words about the good effects or benefits you’ve been experiencing from TRT. Your talk in this video is motivating me to take that step myself … start a TRT program. Thank you.

I'm 2 weeks in with PeterMD. I felt almost euphoric the first day. My mind and energy has been so steady. Not to mention my sex drive. I'm one of the lucky ones who saw immediately results.

[@optivitanutrition]

Yes and No my fried. I use your idea of low test many times and is 100% correct YET the idea is not to be on cycle the idea is very low dose, to up your levels and not to chase vagina all day long lol. Most people take way to much TRT in my opinion,

Nope. Low T leads to depression and difficulty getting out of bed and enjoying life.

A old school doctor told me one time that Marketing for TRT is so easy to believe ! What man don't have extra body fat ? Who's not tired ? Who can't be harder ??? Brain fog? Whos memory ain't the best ! You can really believe you need it

[@TRTforLIFE]

Unless you experience it, you won't understand it. It's not about being "tired", it's about being exhausted and can't get out of your own way. It's not about being "harder", it's about having a noodle that won't stay hard enough to engage with a partner and when it does get hard enough it won't stay that way for long enough to matter. It's not just "brain fog" "or memory ain't the best" , it's thinking at 59 years old that you have early onset Alzheimer's. Your "old school doctor" isn't as smart as you think he is.

Some TRTherapies don't lower your own production of T as much, while others do a lot. So choose wisely. And make sure you consult all experts.

Daily injections help to keep your natural HPG axis going! I’m doing evening injections daily since it takes 10-12 hours for the oil base T to spike. I want to do Nasal spray in the morning at 7am since it takes an hour for that to spike to get an additional peak daily like the diurnal rhythm.

Hey John, I totally understand, and respect your decision to go on TRT. This is one of those things that'll divide your audience. Personally, I don't think this is for me.

Then at the tender age of 59 I was thinking I had early onset Alzheimer's because of the brain fog and memory problems. I was very active and then wasn't, then gained 40 pounds.

Low test does not automatically lead to hair loss. Testosterone is converted to DHT by means of 5aR (enzyme) and your genes determine how sensitive your follicles are to DHT. Therefore you could say more test increases risk of hair loss.

[@patrickpicciarelli2819]

John: Welcome the the world of TRT! I've been on test for 12 years (I'm 77). TRT changed my life in every possible way you can imagine. Keep in mind that TRT doesn't work miracles unless you work at leading a healthy lifestyle. I've had a few friends who saw my results (I'm in the gym 4-days week, eat well, and don't drink) and leapt on the bandwagon. The majority of them were in poor shape to begin with and TRT had negligible effects. Fat will melt off, but not if you eat a bag of chips a day and ice-cream is your best friend. Booze can be VERY detrimental, and in some cases can raise your BP significantly, especially if you use the gel. Shots are the way to go. Good luck in with your journey, it'll be wroth the effort.

[@40OverFashion]

Thank you!

[@slammed7]

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, - Guys, I am a big fan of TRT, but Please do a lot of research on your own and learn about this stuff. The sad truth is that a lot of doctors are not super knowledgeable about testosterone. There is a lot to it. Know you numbers, know what blood tests you want done. Pay attention to other stuff (i.e. PSA, Hemoglobin, Free & Total Test, Estrogen specifically E2-estrodiol, SHBG, FSH, LH, etc). Research the different options (injections, gel/ creams, pellets). And if doing injections (my prefered method) look into the difference between different injection frequencies / types (i.e. Once a week, multiple injections per week, intramuscular injections, subcutaneous, ect). I find great results with my current plan of twice a week injections, doing it subcutaneously). I know most doctors have good intentions, but some aren't up on the lastest methodologies with this stuff. You have to take it upon yourself to know this stuff. Know your stuff and find a good doctor (Specialist, endocrinologist, urologist, etc)

I'm 40 years old. Recently saw my primary MD and had my total T level checked and it came in at 337. She said I'm completely normal, told me to exercise (although i already do), and sent me on my way. I now have an appointment with a specialist next week for a second opinion.

I have personally experienced all of the positive attributes you described in the video and your girlfriend's analogy of "Hard as Steel" is an accurate description!!

[@ARCSSelfDefense]

I'm 47 later this week and I started TRT at age 44. I did it at the recommendation and under the supervision of a local urologist that I was referred to who specifically specializes in Men's Health. I was 10 years active duty military from age 20 to age 30, with multiple combat deployments. From age 31 to present at age 47, I've been a law enforcement officer. I now specialize as an instructor at a regional training academy. I said all of that to say, high stress jobs with long hours and rotating duty schedules are endocrine system killers and can drive T levels into the basement. Prior to TRT, I tried everything we could through diet and supplements with zero changes. My T numbers that were below 100 and never budged. I've been in the gym doing strength training 5 days a week since I was in my mid to late teens but it seems that my endocrine system was wrecked when it came to T production and regulation. I started TRT and in within 6 weeks I was shocked at how much better I felt. I was waking up in the mornings and wasn't dead exhausted like I had been for years. I wasn't wiped out after a normal work day and had the energy and drive to actually do things after work with my family. My mood was drastically improved because I wasn't exhausted and fed up pretty much all the time. It might not be the answer for some people, but for some of us, it has been a huge life improvement to just be back at normal levels.

Anyway, just keep in mind the the reason those "back alley" clinics exist in the first place is because the general medical community refuses to responds to this very real and pressing male medical issue. It just like drug laws in general, the moment big brother makes a drug illegal, he create a branch that will provide it despite the law.

In Canada, if your libido is in the toilet, you can use that to make a case to your GP. Libido is very subjective and you can make a case even if your testosterone blood levels don't quite go below range. If you can figure it out in Canada then that's a much better way to go as your labs are covered and testosterone is cheap even without insurance ~$50-$75/m CAD. Testosterone is a controlled drug in Canada so it is under the microscope more who/what/when but it is definitely done. Been getting it prescribed for several years now.

Three thoughts. 1. Be careful, John. Intramuscular Trt administration increases the thickness of your blood. That can be incredibly dangerous. The nasal administration does not, but you must do it 2-3 times daily vs 1x every week or two. 2. Trt is a business- buyer beware. 3. Reread #1 and think about it.

Glad that it’s working for you, but here’s my view, although I’m also definitely not a doctor! Testosterone levels vary widely throughout the day, so your recorded change over a few years from 350 to 343 isn’t a reduction, it’s virtually an identical reading given all the variables. And like you say, it’s within acceptable limits for your age group. But here’s what worries me, and why I immediately rejected this treatment for myself: Once you start TRT, your body figures that with all this foreign testosterone flooding the system, it really doesn’t need to keep producing any testosterone itself. So as I understand it, TRT locks you into a treatment for life. Not a desirable outcome from my viewpoint. Maybe the occasional blue pill is better for that steel pipe feeling?

That's interesting! The actor Frank Grillo openly talked about TRT and the benefits he's experienced not too long ago.

Everyone who feels great right now should also get their labs. It serves as a great baseline for down the road when, no matter how dialed in you are trying with your stress, sleep, diet and exercise things aren't nearly the same. TRT takes time and there can be a lot of 'playing around' with dosages to get you working great again without messing your blood pressure and prostate and other things up. Bottom line is get a thorough hormonal blood panel done when you feel good so it makes it a lot easier to know what to shoot for later if required.

You really don't know how bad you felt until you start feeling better. Also, I go through a doctor, and my prescription and blood tests are covered through my health insurance. TRT combined with a healthy diet and workouts is definitely the way to go!

I have been thinking about getting tested for a while. I don't feel like I need it, I'm 47 but I keep myself in good shape. I am very active and don't struggle in any of my performance areas. However, it cannot hurt to get a view on my levels. My concern is that if you start TRT, it's something that you must remain on forever as you are replacing or adding Test on top of your body's own supply. I've heard that if you come off it, you could really struggle as your body stops producing it, making it worse in the long term if you come off. Is this correct? Anyone who knows more about this subject, I would welcome the education. Thanks.

[@40OverFashion]

Basically, this is correct. But if you think about it, your body isn’t producing it anyway, so there’s not much of a difference.

[@40OverFashion]

I respect your opinion, Chris, but bodybuilders aren’t dropping dead from taking regular doses of TRT. They’re abusing many other types of growth hormones. If you’re going to comment, please comment accurately.

[@TheJVCMan]

@@40OverFashion Thanks for the input. My understanding is that you produce less the more you are on it. Making it impossible to come off it without feeling worse. I respect you for talking about this subject. It's a tricky subject to talk about and everyone has their views on it. I think that if you feel the difference and it's a good one, then you made the right choice for you. Everyone must make their own decisions. Thank you for your content as always.

Great video John! I've been looking into it recently. At 61 its definitely time to consider it! Question for you; How often to you inject the testosterone?

Once a week.

[@jacolen3791]

Thanks for the video John. About 3 weeks ago I went to my doctor to discuss TRT and he sent me to a urologist who did my bloodwork and the usual examination. A week later he said my testosterone levels were in range for my age. So now he will not put me on that program. I might need the warehouse guy’s info🤣🤣🤣

[@40OverFashion]

Haha!

[@mlaycox]

My doctor would not prescribed either. Testosterone was 279, low normal, free testosterone was 34, low number. So I decided to go with Peter MD. Absolutely best decision I ever made. I signed up for the 6 month series because of the price savings.

[@kenthawley5990]

TRT has been a game changer and life saver for me. Prior to TRT, I was physically fat and sluggish, mentally foggy and aimless, and sexually uninterested. I knew something had to change, so I researched TRT and decided to go for it (at age 57, my T-level was 239). Since that time, I have lost 35 lbs. of fat, gained 12 lbs. of muscle, have greater energy, have greater mental clarity, and heightened sexual energy. Just the best thing I've done for myself and for those I love. TRT is not for everyone, but it's worth getting tested and talking to a doctor.

[@40OverFashion]

Well said! It’s definitely worth having the conversation.

[@robertgoldstein7489]

I had the exact same experience. I have been on it for 7 years (56 now) and it also was life-changing for me. Mine started dropping and got to 230. I also could not lose weight to save my life. I tried intermittent fasting, HIT training, etc. and I barely moved the needle. I also had this low-level anxiety and/or stress. My GP would not prescribe it and so I found a Functional Medicine MD who did all my bloodwork and we built a plan together. Once I tried it, it felt like someone poured a bucket of cold water over my head; I started to just chill out. Since then, I have lost 20+ lbs., built muscle and leaned out. I feel great and am a huge supporter. I give myself shots 3x a week and it is easy. You must have a professional MD for sure.

The problem with TRT is your boys go on vacation when you inject the juice. If you go on TRT and stop you're going to be worse than before. I would try diet and lifting first.

[@40OverFashion]

I get that, but the thing is, the boys are already on vacation. That’s why a lot of us need a source for replacement.

In Canada, you should back up your rationel with having very low libido (if applicable) and that you've tried all the other lifestyle modifications to no avail. Make sure it's a full hormone panel.

[@TheLuckyInvestor]

Men should weigh the pros and cons of TRT. For me, side effects including shrinking balls, breast enlargement, and increased risk of strokes and heart attacks are just too serious to ignore! I hope you are aware of these risks John!

[@40OverFashion]

Thank you for your concern!

[@00dfm00]

Many of those things are dose-dependant. People on TRT should be on it because they are hypogonadal and it is actually the Lack of enough testosterone that actually leads to those things. Everything in moderation - include TRT doses.

what scares me is the thought that I will need to stay on TRT for the rest of my life... any thoughts about that ?

[@40OverFashion]

Yeah, it’s honestly not that big of a deal if you’re on it for the right reasons. Think about it like this, as you get older, your body isn’t producing it anymore. If you want testosterone, you have to administer it. Your body stopped making it.

TRT scares me. Once you’re on it, you can’t go off it, right? It’s expensive. God forbid something hurts me financially and I can’t afford it.

[@40OverFashion]

I get it, but we can’t live life worrying about the “what if”. Also, I know a few guys that took TRT for quite a while, then got off of it. It’s not like you shrivel up and die or anything, you just go back to feeling old and lethargic again.

@@40OverFashion I always heard you had to be on it afterwards. Is it different than being on steroids? Like is one worse to get off of?

[@11855alan]

Recent subscriber to your channel and really enjoy your “fashion tips”. I’m 68 and have certainly noticed several of the symptoms you mentioned and have seriously considered TRT. One thing guys should be very aware of ii is before going on TRT replacement are prostate issues. Make sure to see a Urologist or at least get your PSA levels checked along with your testosterone level. Taking a replacement such as this can cause enlargement of the prostate and that could be problematic. Just a heads up on a very interesting topic. Thanks Great video and again very informative all around John!

[@mikebingham9700]

This Video was an Advertisement for TRT. It takes a while for the TRT to work. In fact, it takes time and a lot of $$$Money, for it to build up in your system. The problem, once you're on TRT you have to keep on taking it. Just go to the Gym on a regular basis. (3 to 4 times a week and lift heavy weights and put them down.)

[@marcgirard1045]

Weight lifting increases lean muscle mass, which increases Testosterone. If you don't continue or never have been in the gym to build or maintain muscle mass, you will loose T. You can take a prescription oral pill that stimulates T production naturally. Its a simple blood test screen with you Primary Care Physician, a dose of levothyroxine to improve thyroid function, and you are all set. No injections.Going to the gym and creating "meat" bumps it all up too. I am 57 and all the above has me solid like a 25 year old.
