What would be the ideal delivery method that would really get you those benefits but lower that risk profile?
Well, especially if you're, you're monitoring biomarkers and we'd love, I'd love to like talk about some of those in a minute, but I think that's, that's the key to right.
Like monitoring.
Right.
Yeah.
Right.
So it's kind of a newer thing.
And when it comes to the injections, it sounds like more frequent sub-Q is like subcutaneous is like where you're going to get more less of the probability of having that supra physiological peak versus like if you're just doing it once a week, intramuscular, not bleeding out that like response there effect.
But again, as you mentioned, compliance is definitely going to be better if you're doing it once a week.
But I mean, twice a week, three times like every other day.
I mean, you know, for people that are that are really concerned about risk profile, perhaps they have already like, you know, a family history of cardiovascular disease or stroke or whatever.
They probably are more incentivized to like lower that risk for any potential side effects.
Yeah.
What about men that are wanting to reproduce?
Wow.
At what point does that atrophy start to occur?
I mean, like how long do you have to be on, you know, TRT before that really starts to happen?
Wow.
And so this is also kind of important to point out for like guys that are, you know, cowboying it and trying to like they want to they want to get their T up for like maybe some muscular effects or something.
Right.
