Testosterone therapy as an injection is painful for some people.

It is somewhat of a hurdle.

So I have one compounding pharmacy I use and trust that will do a high-dose cream.

And then I'll do injectable as well, too.

I'll do injectable as either... I think the cream doesn't work.

Does the cream work at all?

I think, you know, I would say I'll get some younger guys that definitely have evidence of testosterone insufficiency that...

whether it's placebo or not i don't think so i think they definitely get a tiny boost which maybe in those people i want i don't want my patients i don't want a 60 year old guy to look jacked and like overly no supplementing about i just want him to be

lean i want him to be strong i want him to preserve muscle mass no old person ever said gosh i wish i had more you know i wish i didn't have as much muscle as i did women also need testosterone let's be clear they need estrogen they need progesterone and they need testosterone women on testosterone supplementation have an up to 30 reduction in breast cancer people are saying oh but you're going to get tumors you're going to get you know now granted over

replacement would lead to oily skin, acne, unwanted hair growth.

But that's not what we're looking at.

Because you're giving them basically a microdose.

Yeah, well, they're getting about a tenth of the dose that men get.

Okay.

You know, I think one thing that, you know, you prompted me to explain today is that, you know, addiction...

is a multifaceted disease, whether it's food, gambling, sex and love, cocaine, meth, alcohol, opiates.

And now we have tools that under proper medical guidance, we have a way, on top of all the therapeutic tools that at Carrera are the best in the world, that we have a way

And we didn't even get into like the lifestyle modifications that we make on people there.

But we have a way of truly, truly keeping people sober and leading happy, healthy lives they're proud of.

There is no, I'm going to cry.
