Testosterone replacement therapy is not one-size-fits-all, and this video is proof. In this TRT update, I break down what happened when my total testosterone came back at 1,223 ng/dL, why my prescriber panicked and cut my dose, and how losing that ground brought my symptoms rushing back.
More importantly, I talk about why total testosterone is not the number you should be focused on, especially if you have elevated SHBG. Free testosterone is what actually matters, and I walked into my follow-up appointment armed with research from Dr. Abraham Morgentaler and the AUA to make that case.
I also share the at-home lab testing option I found to track my levels monthly so I always have data to work with. Not a finger stick. A real blood draw, processed in a CLIA and CAP certified lab.
