TESTOSTERONE PRODUCTION
All medications and including over-the-counter medications have potential risks. Ibuprofen has been shown to be detrimental to heart health, and can cause stomach bleeding leading to death. Zantac a drug for stomach symptoms, after being a prescription drug and then an over-the-counter drug, was pulled by the FDA.
Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) and other hormones (HRT) likewise remains controversial because of its potential health risks. Safety concerns were raised years ago when studies showed a possible association between TRT and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Dr. Frances Hayes, a reproductive endocrinologist with Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital, points out that some of these studies had limitations. "For instance, in one study, TRT doses were much higher than what would usually be prescribed, and the subjects tended to be more frail, with other health problems," she says. "Other studies showed no evidence of increased risk." At the same time, there are studies that show that men with higher testosterone level as they age is associated with improved health and longevity. The problem with scientific studies is that they all have their limitations, and often conflicting results occur.
A study reported at the 2015 American Heart Association Scientific Sessions involved 1,472 men ages 52 to 63 with low testosterone levels and no history of heart disease. Researchers found that healthy men who received TRT did not have a higher risk of heart attack, stroke, or death. Furthermore, a study in the August 2015 Mayo Clinic Proceedings showed no link between TRT and blood clots in veins among 30,000 men. More recently in July 2023, a study was published in the New England Journal of Medicine, concluding that "men with hypogonadism and preexisting or a high risk of cardiovascular disease, testosterone-replacement therapy was noninferior to placebo with respect to the incidence of major adverse cardiac events", that is had no impact..
TRT's relationship with other health issues is also mixed. For instance, TRT has previously been tied to a higher incidence of prostate cancer, but a study published in the December 2015 Journal of Urology found that exposure to TRT over a five-year period was not linked to a greater risk of aggressive prostate cancer.
The bottom line is that the long-term safety risks of TRT are unknown, but repeated studies show that it is safe under medical supervision.
On a Podcast by Ed Mylett in 2024, Harvard Professor in Genetics and Longevity Researcher David Sinclair was asked about Testosterone Replacement Therapy, Professor Sinclair said "I think that it makes perfect sense to me...to maintain what you lost...both Testosterone and Growth Hormone..."
While Testosterone Replacement is the most direct route to increase Testosterone, there are alternative medications and strategies use to improve your Testosterone level and get the effective results you strive for, such as testosterone precursors and estrogen blockers.
Whether by injection, orally, intranasal, pellets, or cream, effective Testosterone Replacement can be used to restore your hormone level to achieve the greatest impact. Most men prefer the injections into the muscles. We provide you the medications and syringes, and they can be mailed directly to your home. If covered by insurance, then we will send a prescription to your local pharmacy..
There are three common forms of injectable injections: testosterone cypionate, testosterone enanthate, and testosterone propionate. The former form is typically used, as it tends to be longer acting, and thus requiring injection only once a week, while the enanthate form is every five days and propionate every few days.
Testosterone nasal gel Natesto, Aytu BioScience was approved by the FDA in 2014 for use in men with primary or hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, congenital or acquired, and is self-administered via a nasal applicator, minimizing the risks of secondary exposure to testosterone by women or children. The nose has a high blood supply in the nasal mucosa, so you are able to have rapid absorption, directly into the bloodstream and avoid first-pass metabolism. The therapy is low-volume, needle-free and user-friendly. The maximum concentration of testosterone is reached about 45 minutes after administration, and there is quick clearance in 2 to 6 hours. Available as a metered-dose pump, one pump delivers 5.5 mg testosterone. The recommended dose is 11 mg — one pump per nostril — applied three times daily, for a total of 33 mg each day.
Oral testosterone undecanoate (Jatenzo, Clarus Therapeutics) was approved by the FDA in March 2019 for men with low testosterone levels due to specific medical conditions, such as Klinefelter syndrome or tumors that have damaged the pituitary gland. Oral Testosterone dose of 237 mg twice per day, and the dose was adjusted downward or upward to a maximum of 396 mg twice per day on the basis of testosterone levels. This oral testosterone undecanoate should not be used to treat men with age-related hypogonadism. like other testosterone treatment, in which testosterone levels decline due to aging, even if these men have symptoms that appear to be related to low testosterone, according to the FDA, which stated that the drug’s benefits do not outweigh its risks for that use.
