If you have low T, working with a medical provider who not only knows how to interpret bloodwork in nuanced situations like this, but also knows how to identify if you may have something structurally unique like a Varicocele, is critical. For turnkey bloodwork panels that reflect the most up to date literature, or self-service labs where you can add your own specific biomarkers to a cart and create your own panel, and high level providers, check out Marek Health: bit.ly/373k791 (code MPMD will save you 10% off your first blood test).

Hey Derek, long time listener/ watcher of your content. Was wondering what your thoughts are for a 27 year old with 190 ng/dL… these were my results in late 2021. I have since then not had my labs done due to not having health insurance. Currently 30 and have a lot trouble losing weight and my memory has depleted tremendously since then. I’m not sure if I just need to lose weight and take some vitamins or if actually need TRT. Would appreciate any thoughts bro 💪🏼

Damn was your libido not existant ?
Derek without your Chanel I would be in a terrible place, Figured out during august 2023 after watching your videos religiously since December 2022 that I had EVERY low t symptom. Went to a doctor, got a blood test, my test was 11ng/dl. Not free, that was total. Turned out I had a cancerous tumor called germinoma on my pituitary and pineal gland. I started full hrt including trt in October 2023 at 16 years old. Now at 17 50mg a week IM my quality of life has skyrocketed. Way more muscular, leaner, stronger, denser bones, energy, libido, body hair, facial hair, no brain fog, the list goes on. Anyway, I appreciate what you do brother. Loving the consistency in posts lately.

Doctor Jared ordered for him, “One 6 foot long Trenboloney sangwhich!”
I had 200 ng/dl at age 20. I suspected it was from my varicocele, but every doctor I asked said it wasn't related. One doctor even suggested maybe I have low testosterone because I'm gay (I'm not). So I started taking things into my own hands and found a men's health clinic, got on TRT, and have been feeling great ever since.

I had been tested for a couple years with 200s-300s of levels before starting. I notice a difference before and after. Sure felt like I had been low for a while. Didn't feel like I could build muscle either. I figure that I had been low through my mid 20s and beyond.
Throwing everything in the anabolic kitchen at it seems to have worked….
I know a guy who recently got his bloodwork. Found out he was at 200-220ng/dl. They gave him 50mg clomid mon/tue/fri for a few weeks. He now said he’s at +800ng/dl testosterone.

Disappointing AF to be honest, dude didn't dive into his frisbee playing, why he was able to get 200mg as a prescription in the 1980s, or how he can possibly extrapolate his late growth spurt from caloric restriction vs induced hypogonadism, and how he is biased in making assertions about gains he could have made or that listeners in similar situations are make, given that Stan jumped on TRT before drinking age (ostensibly)
Low test for me as well at 36 im also not on the chart for minimal ranges
Can you fix vericocile ?
ive had a varicocele since I was like 11/12, only corrected at 20 lol, permanently limited my test levels because of it.

How did you get rid of it?
I also have varicosile. Didn't find out what it was until about 6 or 7 years after my general doc put me on trt. I figured it was too late to fix it at that point. That's what they told me anyways. I'm 50 now so it doesn't matter anymore. Don't go to a general doc for trt. If I had gone to the specialist that actually told me why I had low T, it might have gotten fixed when I was younger and I wouldn't have been infertile all my life. I adopted a wonderful son that I would give my life for, but it still always hurts a little that I could never produce children. Because the fucking GP just saw low testosterone levels and said replace it, without figuring out why it was low in the first place.
I died. For long enough it was a "miracle" that i could walk and talk. At age 32. Kn the coming months, i didnt feel right and a hormonal panel revealed levels well under 100, basically child level. I started 500mg each test e tren ace and i swear i went back into puberty. Shoulders opened up more, voice got deeper, 8====D became 8=======D...and permanent baseline strength shot way up. None of this goes away when i go off everything. Yeah my sex drive goes to sbit but the big changes remain.
In the same boat right now, 209ng/dl at 21 years old. I met with a trt doctor and I’m gonna be starting HCG and enclomiphene. Was wondering if you had any thoughts on that since I know you were critical of driftors clomid monotherapy.
When your pituitary gland stops playing ball and you want to sleep at night, you have to research conditions that you could’ve had to justify a lifetime of being wild and strong

I was there man! Age 23, infertile, under 200ng/dl across 4 tests with free T of 3.

I thought I had low testosterone, so I had my levels checked last year. It was 1020 ng/dl at 40 years old! My dr asked if I was on any medications that could be elevating my test levels, and I wasn’t. I’ve been avoiding endocrine disruptors for almost 20 years and lift intensely 3-4 days a week.

You seem like a regular viewer saw u in his tren stories are you really a girl why do you watch steroid stuff
If anyone could answers I’d appreciate it. I’m 33 years old, I haven’t done weight training since high school football. I’m 6’2-6’3 242 as of this morning. I started lifting about 2 months ago. I’ve been following the dr. Regiment for hypertrophy the best I can. Well the main question is, my coworker, who is an experienced power lifter and training buddy does gear and he has suggested it for me multiple times. I have been considering a test only 250 mg cycle for 10 weeks along with the supplement that keeps your test active along with the supplement to keep my estrogen in check. Should I wait another 6 months to a year to get my muscles adjusted to gaining mass and try to maximize my “natural” gains as much as possible, or is it fine to hop on because the dosage level is so low it’s basically an athletic trt dose. My idea was 200-250 for 10-12 weeks then 50-100 for 6-8 weeks, then a 6-8 week at 400. Any and all advice will be greatly appreciated.
@thebiggestpanda1
2 ай бұрын
250mg isn’t an “athletic TRT” dose. That’s a cycle and it’ll shut you down. I honestly wouldn’t bother though. It’s just unnecessary organ stress and endocrine disruption for gains you could likely get naturally. Just enjoy the process of self improvement and remember that you need to weigh less than you think you do to get really lean.

i was in a similar situation to you, age 40, 6'4 230. Lifted for 3 months and i had learned correct form and how to eat and i started a 6 week 250 mg dose of T. I got off and i felt amazing, felt as i did before i got on, just 20 pounds more muscle. Gonna do one again and hopefully gain another 15 pounds and ill be set.
He's hot
I had a varicocele I got embolization my one never effected my test tho my test is sky high I was also never ate hardly at school so relatable been training almost 2 years now
I take 200mg weekly from my urologist. Perfect dose!
Why
Its always the same story; I had a deficiency in X, and then I started using the entire local PED pharmacy. Just straight up be honest, I use / used PED because I want to look like the Hulk and thats physically impossible without PED.
