I listened to over 8 minutes of pure, raw knowledge coming from this highly accomplished doctor, Dr Huberman. Only to hear Joe intervene with "Did you know Rams have enormous balls?". Incredible.
Protocols Mentioned (I'm not a doctor, this is just what he said): [1:04] Tognkat Ali - 400mg per day [5:34] Fadogia Agrestis - 600mg per day Other Notes: - Testosterone makes effort feel good. - Becoming a dad increases prolactin. Prolactin is essentially like the opposite of testosterone.
I’m 30 and work 80 hours a week running my construction business, it’s absolutely killed my testosterone. It’s crazy how much anxiety and stress can throw your body off. Guys, take care of your physical and mental health!
That's not true The more stress you get, the more testosterone you'll have. Also, there is a difference between feeling that you are stressed and actually being stressed. For example, you may feel stressed because of some project you are working on, but the amount of cortisol (stress hormone) that gets released when you exercise or take a cold shower or fast for a day, is way more than the amount released when you get emotional stress. So, the reason your testosterone is low is the same reason everyone else's testosterone is low. It's because of low stress and not the opposite.
@@Meta_humane Why do you think that though? When you feel stressed you always have a lower drive for basically anything and guess what, the more stressed you get the more wired your brain becomes to get stressed easier the same way lifting weights gets you stronger, the same basic adaptation concept. And that means it's harder to get motivated because you weren't motivated in the first place so of course your testosterone baseline is decreased. Perhaps the only exception is when you feel both excited and anxious at the same time, when you're both afraid and motivated to do something.
I just know that I’ve been at this for 13 years. Trying to grow my business. I work both in and on the business. I labor pretty heavily for about 10 hours a day, when that’s over I come home and do back end stuff on a computer keeping track of of the numbers, clients, jobs, follow ups with customers and making sure payroll is accurate for my guys. I defiantly plan on phasing out of this but it’s hard to find competent help so I end up doing it until I can find decent help. Hoping it’s a short term sacrifice for a long term benefit when I can finally step out and the business can run smoothly with my hands on it constantly. I was just suggesting guys out there who are stretching themselves thin try to make time to take care of themselves, as I’m learning that the hard way.
I just turned 60 at 55 I had my T levels checked I was at 85 . I said to my doctor is that low he said you are broken . So I went with injections 1 ml every 2 weeks but it takes about two weeks before you notice any change . My buddy was taking T replacement therapy but not from a doctor he bought the synthetic T from someone and injected himself . I said how do you know when your levels are high enough. His response was when the 80 year old lady behind the counter at the gas stations looks good to you you’ve had enough
This literally just happened to me. My testo score was 48! The Dr told me no fucking wonder you feel bad. I started off with the gel and that was shit so I went with injections and I wake up with a massive boner daily. Within a month I was a new man. I would nail anything right now. And I am lol. I just turned 53.
Start to work weight lifting really worked for me went from 435 to 290 so and never gained a pound back . But the best part the absolute best part is my free bench max is now 315 so it’s three 45s preside and the Olympic bar . But I always do it when there are a few younger guys trying to get 4 wheels up and they always ask me the same thing . They say how old are you I tell them 60 and they almost always respond the same way .... son of a bitch are you joking me i just laugh to myself . But at 53 you have the best part of your life to live I’m stronger now then at 21 so go get it 👍🏼

Sooo damn true about Testosterone helping with anxiety...when I lift weights consistently my anxiety goes away pretty much completely it's actually amazing and not prescribed nearly enough in my opinion. Should be the first treatment for people with anxiety is to consistently do a weight training routine it calms/soothes your brain like Andrew talked about.

I highly doubt that's what's going on. He's mainly asking questions for his audience here. Joe is on TRT and HGH as well I believe. Any other steroids he's done in the past I assume he had a trainer telling him exactly what to take. If Joe actually needed to learn this stuff himself I'm sure he's capable of doing the research.
When I started on trt my levels were rock bottom, I was way overweight and depressed. After 2 years on trt my numbers were great but still weak overweight and depressed. You have to put in the effort it doesn't just magically appear. I was expecting everything to magically improve but you have to push yourself to get started and once you put in the effort then the weight starts to drop and your depression begins to lift and you then want to make the effort. You have to get active and exercise

I am 61 and continue to LOVE to learn about how to age gracefully and health. Thank you for making it so easy to digest and understand! Keep up the research!!!
I've been on TRT for 3yrs now (I'm 48) taking. 0.5mL weekly. That was after taking a year with my urologist getting my levels just right. I was under 150 T, now I sit at about 700-800. Been an absolute life changer!

I’m on TRT and HGH peptides. It was all optimized by my doctor. Took 9 months to find that thrive zone for me to have the perfect amount of Free Test, Estrogen and Test. It helped me with my depression, PTSD and Memory issues. I suffered a head injury in Afghanistan and no medication in the world has helped me as much as getting my test levels right.
No, here in Texas I went to SynergenX. They focus 100% on weight loss and men’s health. But every state has their own version of TRT centers. I have my own insurance to my employer now, fuck the VA they’re useless. My insurance covers my treatment 100% and I don’t pay a co pay at my visit because I’m a veteran.
He mentions depressed people are deprived of testosterone, and that was very true for me. Had to stop beating, I’ve had some moody days but I’ve been chillin with no depression for a while.
Such terrible standards - Huberman now, Jordan Peterson before, Mehmet Oz even before that, etc. Never ceases to surprise me at how fking uneducated our society is that so many people fall for grifters like these because they sound smart or talk fast or have PhD after their name or what not.
Rams don't have a steroid cycle. So, although the second comment has more words, its also stupid. More stupid, actually. But why is everyone here so obsessed with Joe Rogan?
In my early 40's I was underweight and miserable. I tried force feeding myself in spite of low appetite, and weight trained, but was catabolic, i.e., I got worse, no results, just miserable. Found out I was suffering from low t (hypogonadism) and low blood pressure. Started on exogenous TRT and within 9 months I went from 148 lbs. to 178 lbs. Here's the kicker...my waist size stayed at 33" the whole time. Strength up, weight up, and overall sense of well-being up. Stressors that used to be debilitating, especially those from my difficult career, rolled off me (and still roll off) like water off a duck's back. I'm in my early 60's now and happily retired. To be honest, I don't know if I would have accomplished what I have without TRT. It, for me, has been a godsend.
Excellent write up. Happy for you. Where does one aquire this element? I'm back in weight training and I have low blood pressure . It's hard to eat a lot after the immense stress I went thru the past 3 years with my landlord business and back to back ultra feminist long term relationships. I'm coming back at 38 about to be 39. My body is feeling better after 4 months of this gym rehab. Got a personal trainer. Doing it right.
@@michaelwang1079 I wasn't worried about shrinking testicles because I already had a vasectomy. That being said, I'd say they're about 2/3 normal size. if you go to a TRT Doctor (which I recommend), tell him/her you're concerned about testicle size.
The way he plays dumb when the guy refers to "Sports TRT" as being over 200mg doses is hilarious. Joe is clearly taking more than 200mg doses... Joe Rogan is 53 years old.
Was just saying this. He even went to the point of acting like he doesn't understand a typical CC. Like he's totally clueless, but he takes trt. He's not clueless.
Hi there a I have training for years. I was diagnosed with polymyositis in 2016. A stopped training about a year ago. But starting back after new year. I'm 55 and weigh 210lbs. Diet is good. I'm considering taking Tongkat Ali and fadogia agretis. What dosage would you recommend be best for me take. Any advice be much appreciated thanks.
Some of the things he mentioned were things I noted in a research proposal I was writing to get a PhD position at my university. I was arguing that testosterone could be used to treat depression in men (not just hypogonadal men). Good to see someone not spreading hysteria about testosterone.
Andrew Huberman is blowing up recently. Easy to see why due to clarity of thought and explanations. He’s in the right job at Stanford. Good podcast with Tim Ferriss too.
Great discussion Came hear researching TRT as a mid 40s male, I needed to hear this conversation Dude! How smart is Andrew, if I could have his knowledge, impressive.
And then....he doesn't even get right. I use TRT, 1cc or 1ml on a syringe is 200mg of Testosterone of your typical bought at the pharmacy Testosterone Cypionate. Although, it does come in 100mg per cc I've never actually seen it available in a pharmacy.
Man! This video is a gem of knowledge.💯 Question for anyone that can answer: Does going through a stressful situation causes test level to drop since cortisol is high at the moment? For example, 2 months ago I lost my job. Needless to say I felt very stressed during those 3 weeks without working. But when I got a new job 3 weeks later, I felt like my usual self again (good happy mood). Does that mean outside factors (non-biological factors) affect test levels? I know it’s kind of a convoluted, complicated long question, but I’m just curious. Thanks to anyone that can answer this.
Id say it was more mental aka stress/depression not due to the lack of T but due to life itself. Depression and stress have a profound effect on energy levels .
What he said about effort and heavy lifting being soothing for the brain is so true for me I just experienced this today and crazy hearing this shortly after
My friend got ill from steroid abuse and then caught something in hospital because his immune system was so fucked and died. Anabolic steroid abuse ain't no joke.
Turn 50 the end of this year and partially because of Joe and this video in particular I recently got my lab work done to start TRT. I love the gym and beat the shit out of myself in there 5 days a week, I am hoping this makes it a bit easier to recover and make the gains I would still like to see. Thanks Joe for the knowledge and time you put into this show for men like me.
@@arnyarny77 yeah, have my first consult with a TRT specialist this thursday where we will talk about treatment. Hoping he sees the goals for me same as I do
I'm 50 at the end of the year too. Train 5 to 6 days heavy and intensely. Got great gains from sarms at 47 to 49 years age. Lgd was by far the best, then rad140 and mk677 last. Strength and size was amazing with lgd, bench went from 225x5 to 225x10. Now I'm off sarms and found testosterone recently. Didn't get any test levels done at a doctor. Just went on it taking the recommended dosage. Can't believe the results. Not quite the strength gain of sarms but the muscle size gain and the constant feeling of hard muscle pumped feel similar to sarms. Highly recommend any testosterone to men over 40/45
@@ancient_hulk hopefully the discussion went well for you. Most docs are not familiar with hormone treatment, let alone men's health as we age. I attempted SARMs a few years back and had a mini-stroke. I'd stick with a medical professional who are familiar with TRT.
I knew I just had to look at the comments section for the name, thanks bro. Now I regret giving away 2 huge"tongkat ali" I got from Borneo forests cus now it seems it's almost extinct.
Former high level athlete here: National champ in high school, 3x NCAA all american in college- I was a serious stud in my 20s- like just below the level of qualifying for the olympic trials and now in my early 50s. I've never used performance enhancers at any time I was competing- (all natural) but some years later in my late 30s long after not competing or training at any higher level my T levels were measured due to infertility (low motility). I was WAY low on T. Like down in the 300s. Libido was fine then as well as muscle mass and stamina. But my T levels were off. They had me on chlomid for a while and that did the trick for the short term and put me up in the 800s (noticed some rage during that ramp up--- but unfortunately it didn't improve sperm motility at all though). We ended up doing IVF. Up until turning 51, I could roll Jiu Jitsu with all the young guys and out work guys half my age just from having a really good engine driving my body. But following the 2020-22 shut downs, my stamina and muscles went to hell. Partly due to stress, but obviously age is catching up with me. So now in my 50s- I know my levels would not be any better than when I had them measured years ago and I tried this per this podcast. I didn't notice much of a bump in the gym (or running) but did experience some negative side effects including increased anxiety, increased insomnia, and I've noticed my libido has gone down significantly. I'm approaching 2 months and have started experiencing diarrhea for the past week which I can't trace back to any food. This and the libido failing thing ramped up at the same time. Note that Chlomid actually hurt my libido too- so that may be a "me" thing. Honestly the little bump I think I felt - which may be imaginary and same as if I had done a placebo, wasn't enough to justify doing a supplement routine beyond regular multi vitamins. Going to stop per the appearance of diahrea, no measurable gain along with the side effects. Although testing says it should have no risks and at worst do nothing, it's a non-dietary substance which ALWAYS has some risk whether you choose to aknowledge it or not is up to you. Anyway- that's my experience.
@@Garrett1240 so hard to choose. Any one of them that seems to resonate with something relative to yourself. Dr. Huberman seems to be getting better and better at finding a great flow with his podcast. The data are reliable 😁
Because Tungkat Ali increases tests levels, would it decrease your body's natural ability to produce Testosterone once you stop taking it? Would your body would become reliant on it, or would it depend on how long you take it?
Hey Joe. Always a joy to watch your podcasts, they are awsome! Is it possible to upload them all to TH-cam? I noticed that not all full shows are being uploaded. Thanks for all the great shows!

34M 6’3” 250lbs - been struggling with VERY low T for 2-3 years. Symptoms are brutal; zero sex drive, depression, no energy/motivation, couldn’t sleep, foggy brain, etc. Finally got bloodwork done last April and was at 96 ng/dL. Dabbled with TRT via a prescribed 100mg auto-injector 2x/week called Xyosted. Stupid expensive. Finally got in with a proper Endocrinologist, my MRI uncovered a benign and somewhat common pituitary tumor (macro-prolactinoma) which was wildly over producing prolactin, thus tanking my T. Now after 6 months of being on the miracle pill Cabergoline (surgery not required somehow), I’m back up into the 250’s ng/dL, feeling like myself again, boning again, and continuing to head in the right direction! I feel like there’s a lot of other men out there that might be experiencing the soul-crushing low T symptoms but just brushing it off. Start with getting full bloodwork done with your primary. If you don’t have a primary doc, order an at-home test. I got served up an ad for Everlywell on Insta years ago and that’s what got me heading towards better health. Good luck men.
Last year my T was at 567. It is now at 865. All blood work is normal. BP normal. 39yrs old. In my view, my vitamin D, magnesium, zinc supplementation, and insane leg days propelled this 280+ pts.
I quit my job in a restaurant shortly after being moved from doing dishes to being a waiter, because I knew being a waiter was making my testosterone low (due to the requirements of the job) and it was making my depressed. I sound crazy when I trying to explain this to people. I can feel when I have more testosterone, my voice gets deeper, I have more energy and drive, I’m more attracted to women, and my anxiety goes away. Doing activities which increases T levels naturally, like martial arts and surfing has had a huge positive impact on my mental health. Testosterone is the real deal.
A waiter can endure a ton of stress mixed with a hostile environment which creates anxiety this raises cortisone and cortisone will hammer down testosterone. To much masturbation or sex will create a negative impact on the brain making us into introverts and this creates anxiety. Im a maintenance worker dealing with tons of new faces on a daily and it put a huge roll on my anxiety issues. But I noticed" as long as I can keep sex no less then every 4 days I'm at ease and alot happier. "I know this because I have had my testosterone tested afther having sex everyday for a few weeks littlerly drove my levels to sub 200. "Sex every 4 days my levels fall around 450ish. May want to consider this.
@@samhvidberg5612 I did it for 30 yrs,Im 50 now but its dominance and winning that increases testosterone,not aggression itself but its very temporary just like weight lifting,they do not increase your normal daily levels.Look it up yourself from a reputable source.
The variation in testosterone from daily mild stress wouldnt be enogh to produce any of thpse effects,that is just anxiety you are feeling.Im not guessing,Im a Physician Associate in endocrinology treating hormone disorders every day.
44, TBI, anxiety, depression, and my total T was 261. I work out 3 x a week, eat clean, I'm active, sleep, hydrate..etc etc.. T levels won't budge. Hopefully TRT will change my life.
Worth noting: I saw multiple endocrinologists- Drs who specialise in hormones - due to low testosterone. All had screening questions regarding use of anabolic or natural test boosters. They said using natural test boosters such as Tongkat Ali or Ashwaganda can cause the pituitary gland ( which signals to the testes to produce more testosterone through LH/FSH signals ) to fizzle out. Think of it like running an engine on boost all the time, it’ll burn out. Worth leaving it alone.

"You can't explain something in simple words unless you understand it fully yourself"
@@saketchaturvedi1073 you already said what I was gonna say...
Clearly?
So what can I do ?
@@saketchaturvedi1073 you don’t say?? 🤷♂️🧐
He mentions depressed people are deprived of testosterone, and that was very true for me. Had to stop beating, I’ve had some moody days but I’ve been chillin with no depression for a while.
Love this guy, he is an amazing down to earth, straight up GENIUS.
Lol
Such terrible standards - Huberman now, Jordan Peterson before, Mehmet Oz even before that, etc. Never ceases to surprise me at how fking uneducated our society is that so many people fall for grifters like these because they sound smart or talk fast or have PhD after their name or what not.
Andrew Huberman: Testosterone has some very interesting effect on the brain!

Rams don't have a steroid cycle. So, although the second comment has more words, its also stupid. More stupid, actually. But why is everyone here so obsessed with Joe Rogan?
@@martineshamzin7535 well it sounds like you’re super smart, so you can probably figure that shit out. “Obsessed” is kinda much tho 🙄
What is the name of the second supplement ? Fadojo ?
@@KristeeBee If my comment gets you going that much, then no.
In my early 40's I was underweight and miserable. I tried force feeding myself in spite of low appetite, and weight trained, but was catabolic, i.e., I got worse, no results, just miserable. Found out I was suffering from low t (hypogonadism) and low blood pressure. Started on exogenous TRT and within 9 months I went from 148 lbs. to 178 lbs. Here's the kicker...my waist size stayed at 33" the whole time. Strength up, weight up, and overall sense of well-being up. Stressors that used to be debilitating, especially those from my difficult career, rolled off me (and still roll off) like water off a duck's back. I'm in my early 60's now and happily retired. To be honest, I don't know if I would have accomplished what I have without TRT. It, for me, has been a godsend.
You wouldn’t have been low on t if you ate being malnourished and underweight in your 40s is kind of crazy
Excellent write up. Happy for you. Where does one aquire this element? I'm back in weight training and I have low blood pressure . It's hard to eat a lot after the immense stress I went thru the past 3 years with my landlord business and back to back ultra feminist long term relationships. I'm coming back at 38 about to be 39. My body is feeling better after 4 months of this gym rehab. Got a personal trainer. Doing it right.
How much percentage does trt shrink the testicle? Im considering using it but on the fence.
@@michaelwang1079 I wasn't worried about shrinking testicles because I already had a vasectomy. That being said, I'd say they're about 2/3 normal size. if you go to a TRT Doctor (which I recommend), tell him/her you're concerned about testicle size.
This is the best talk on trt I’ve seen.
This guy knows exactly what he is talking about.
When Joe just realises he’s taking 2000mg not 200mg
Hahaha fuck

The way he plays dumb when the guy refers to "Sports TRT" as being over 200mg doses is hilarious. Joe is clearly taking more than 200mg doses... Joe Rogan is 53 years old.
Was just saying this. He even went to the point of acting like he doesn't understand a typical CC. Like he's totally clueless, but he takes trt. He's not clueless.
Thanks doc. And thanks joe for bringing him back. Gonna need to speak with ncaa compliance tomorrow
Seeing this bit after what I gone through the last 3 years is very interesting and everything lines up perfectly.

@@DarthBane-zf8wv thanks, corrected.
Some of the things he mentioned were things I noted in a research proposal I was writing to get a PhD position at my university. I was arguing that testosterone could be used to treat depression in men (not just hypogonadal men). Good to see someone not spreading hysteria about testosterone.
This speaks to me. I have an older brother and he suffers from depression and anxiety and this may be the only help he would take.
This is fascinating, thank you so much guys.

“Rams have enormous balls.”

"When we say 200mg, when you're looking at a syringe, what is that?"
Yes this is definitely the first question that comes to mind.
LLMAAAOO Joe I use Syringese Rogan
And then....he doesn't even get right. I use TRT, 1cc or 1ml on a syringe is 200mg of Testosterone of your typical bought at the pharmacy Testosterone Cypionate. Although, it does come in 100mg per cc I've never actually seen it available in a pharmacy.
@@jbrownjetmech-4783 hey bro, just out of curiosity, why do you use trt and how has it affected you?
Joe is trying to figure out how much his doctor injects him w/ a syringe
@@BunnyCentauri At that age with health insurance what is the problem?
Man! This video is a gem of knowledge.💯 Question for anyone that can answer: Does going through a stressful situation causes test level to drop since cortisol is high at the moment? For example, 2 months ago I lost my job. Needless to say I felt very stressed during those 3 weeks without working. But when I got a new job 3 weeks later, I felt like my usual self again (good happy mood). Does that mean outside factors (non-biological factors) affect test levels? I know it’s kind of a convoluted, complicated long question, but I’m just curious. Thanks to anyone that can answer this.
Id say it was more mental aka stress/depression not due to the lack of T but due to life itself. Depression and stress have a profound effect on energy levels .
@@cmo5807 thanks! I agree with you.
this was great info, and made so much sense
Andrew just seems like a really great human.
I know a lot of people who seem like good humans in the behind-closed-doors their real assholes
What he said about effort and heavy lifting being soothing for the brain is so true for me I just experienced this today and crazy hearing this shortly after

My friend got ill from steroid abuse and then caught something in hospital because his immune system was so fucked and died. Anabolic steroid abuse ain't no joke.
Turn 50 the end of this year and partially because of Joe and this video in particular I recently got my lab work done to start TRT. I love the gym and beat the shit out of myself in there 5 days a week, I am hoping this makes it a bit easier to recover and make the gains I would still like to see.
Thanks Joe for the knowledge and time you put into this show for men like me.
did you talk to your doc about this? the problem is some docs are very closed minded.
@@arnyarny77 yeah, have my first consult with a TRT specialist this thursday where we will talk about treatment. Hoping he sees the goals for me same as I do
I'm 50 at the end of the year too. Train 5 to 6 days heavy and intensely. Got great gains from sarms at 47 to 49 years age. Lgd was by far the best, then rad140 and mk677 last. Strength and size was amazing with lgd, bench went from 225x5 to 225x10. Now I'm off sarms and found testosterone recently. Didn't get any test levels done at a doctor. Just went on it taking the recommended dosage. Can't believe the results. Not quite the strength gain of sarms but the muscle size gain and the constant feeling of hard muscle pumped feel similar to sarms. Highly recommend any testosterone to men over 40/45
You should check this out , th-cam.com/video/_fbCcWyYthQ/w-d-xo.html. Let me know what you think of this.
@@ancient_hulk hopefully the discussion went well for you. Most docs are not familiar with hormone treatment, let alone men's health as we age. I attempted SARMs a few years back and had a mini-stroke. I'd stick with a medical professional who are familiar with TRT.

I’m trying to find a decent looking online retailer but so far no luck
4:15 - the end is where this podcast really hit me
Former high level athlete here: National champ in high school, 3x NCAA all american in college- I was a serious stud in my 20s- like just below the level of qualifying for the olympic trials and now in my early 50s. I've never used performance enhancers at any time I was competing- (all natural) but some years later in my late 30s long after not competing or training at any higher level my T levels were measured due to infertility (low motility). I was WAY low on T. Like down in the 300s. Libido was fine then as well as muscle mass and stamina. But my T levels were off. They had me on chlomid for a while and that did the trick for the short term and put me up in the 800s (noticed some rage during that ramp up--- but unfortunately it didn't improve sperm motility at all though). We ended up doing IVF.
Up until turning 51, I could roll Jiu Jitsu with all the young guys and out work guys half my age just from having a really good engine driving my body. But following the 2020-22 shut downs, my stamina and muscles went to hell. Partly due to stress, but obviously age is catching up with me.
So now in my 50s- I know my levels would not be any better than when I had them measured years ago and I tried this per this podcast. I didn't notice much of a bump in the gym (or running) but did experience some negative side effects including increased anxiety, increased insomnia, and I've noticed my libido has gone down significantly. I'm approaching 2 months and have started experiencing diarrhea for the past week which I can't trace back to any food. This and the libido failing thing ramped up at the same time. Note that Chlomid actually hurt my libido too- so that may be a "me" thing.
Honestly the little bump I think I felt - which may be imaginary and same as if I had done a placebo, wasn't enough to justify doing a supplement routine beyond regular multi vitamins. Going to stop per the appearance of diahrea, no measurable gain along with the side effects. Although testing says it should have no risks and at worst do nothing, it's a non-dietary substance which ALWAYS has some risk whether you choose to aknowledge it or not is up to you.
Anyway- that's my experience.
Amazing science communicator. Thank you Dr. Huberman!

literally came into the comments just for for the second one, thx homie!

thank you
Because Tungkat Ali increases tests levels, would it decrease your body's natural ability to produce Testosterone once you stop taking it? Would your body would become reliant on it, or would it depend on how long you take it?
This is Amazing thank you

Hey Derek, looking forward to your analysis of this clip.
34M 6’3” 250lbs - been struggling with VERY low T for 2-3 years. Symptoms are brutal; zero sex drive, depression, no energy/motivation, couldn’t sleep, foggy brain, etc. Finally got bloodwork done last April and was at 96 ng/dL. Dabbled with TRT via a prescribed 100mg auto-injector 2x/week called Xyosted. Stupid expensive. Finally got in with a proper Endocrinologist, my MRI uncovered a benign and somewhat common pituitary tumor (macro-prolactinoma) which was wildly over producing prolactin, thus tanking my T. Now after 6 months of being on the miracle pill Cabergoline (surgery not required somehow), I’m back up into the 250’s ng/dL, feeling like myself again, boning again, and continuing to head in the right direction!
I feel like there’s a lot of other men out there that might be experiencing the soul-crushing low T symptoms but just brushing it off. Start with getting full bloodwork done with your primary. If you don’t have a primary doc, order an at-home test. I got served up an ad for Everlywell on Insta years ago and that’s what got me heading towards better health. Good luck men.
Nice mate, continue and cheers
Hey love your video, could you advise on how many of these batteries, inverter and panels I will need for my home

I quit my job in a restaurant shortly after being moved from doing dishes to being a waiter, because I knew being a waiter was making my testosterone low (due to the requirements of the job) and it was making my depressed. I sound crazy when I trying to explain this to people. I can feel when I have more testosterone, my voice gets deeper, I have more energy and drive, I’m more attracted to women, and my anxiety goes away. Doing activities which increases T levels naturally, like martial arts and surfing has had a huge positive impact on my mental health. Testosterone is the real deal.
A waiter can endure a ton of stress mixed with a hostile environment which creates anxiety this raises cortisone and cortisone will hammer down testosterone. To much masturbation or sex will create a negative impact on the brain making us into introverts and this creates anxiety. Im a maintenance worker dealing with tons of new faces on a daily and it put a huge roll on my anxiety issues. But I noticed" as long as I can keep sex no less then every 4 days I'm at ease and alot happier. "I know this because I have had my testosterone tested afther having sex everyday for a few weeks littlerly drove my levels to sub 200. "Sex every 4 days my levels fall around 450ish.
May want to consider this.
Surfing and martial arts do not increase yestosterone,you are feeling better due to ecercise dopamine and endorphins.
@@scarred10 Aggressively sparring against other men does increase testosterone. Obviously you havent done much of it.
@@samhvidberg5612 I did it for 30 yrs,Im 50 now but its dominance and winning that increases testosterone,not aggression itself but its very temporary just like weight lifting,they do not increase your normal daily levels.Look it up yourself from a reputable source.
The variation in testosterone from daily mild stress wouldnt be enogh to produce any of thpse effects,that is just anxiety you are feeling.Im not guessing,Im a Physician Associate in endocrinology treating hormone disorders every day.

44, TBI, anxiety, depression, and my total T was 261. I work out 3 x a week, eat clean, I'm active, sleep, hydrate..etc etc.. T levels won't budge. Hopefully TRT will change my life.
I was going to start TRT at 39, but started taking DAA before going that route, though I did suspect it was bullshiit. Got some interesting results.
Love Andrew. He is extremely intelligent. Love his podcasts.
I love the Joe Rogan podcast. This guy can talk about a little of everything.
😂
Worth noting: I saw multiple endocrinologists- Drs who specialise in hormones - due to low testosterone. All had screening questions regarding use of anabolic or natural test boosters.
They said using natural test boosters such as Tongkat Ali or Ashwaganda can cause the pituitary gland ( which signals to the testes to produce more testosterone through LH/FSH signals ) to fizzle out.
Think of it like running an engine on boost all the time, it’ll burn out.
Worth leaving it alone.
