So like how does it affect the prostate?

I read about fertility.

I mean, being a big one too, it's suppressing fertility.

Sleep apnea can be exacerbated as well.

I mean, these are all like part of the risk profile things to consider.

Okay.

But go ahead.

Please explain it.

Unless we're talking about that supraphysiological level where it seems as though like one in four men don't even know they're in that level.

They are.

I mean, it sounds... They must be, like, also just, like, they get aggressive and stuff and, like... Irritable.

I mean, to me, so, like, let's say...

adherence like compliance that's a whole issue right obviously but let's just like if we're just talking about risk profile right like you're not wanting to really get into that supra physiological level you're not like you know you're not like the bodybuilder you're not like you know you're the person that just really wants to keep that risk low but you want to get the benefits okay like that's that's what you want you really don't want the risk like just not not on the table for you

What would be the best?

There's the different methods you kind of mentioned a few.

Maybe you could kind of just go through them again briefly.

But like, what would be the best method to get you to a more normal range?

Maybe you're not someone that's totally hypogonadal, but like, you know, low T symptoms, right?

Lower T and symptoms.

But what you're aging, you're an aged, you know, like a 50 year old man or something.
