Week 116 check-in — and this one's personal.
I'm at 194.6 lbs and holding in maintenance mode, but today's update goes way beyond the scale. After 9 weeks of external beam radiation for prostate cancer, I started experiencing fatigue, low energy, low libido, and disrupted sleep that just wouldn't go away. What followed was a deep dive into testosterone labs, a crash course in bioavailable T vs. total T, and a frustrating fight to get doctors to actually listen.
In this video I break down:
→ Why total testosterone is almost meaningless on its own
→ What SHBG, free T, bioavailable T, and FSH actually tell you
→ How I was dismissed by multiple doctors — and what I did about it
→ The outdated belief that's blocking men from getting proper hormone care
→ How I finally got my TRT prescription and what protocol I'm on
If you're a man dealing with fatigue, brain fog, low libido, or mood changes and keep getting told your labs are "normal" — this one's for you.
