Yes, TRT helps with weight loss — but probably not the way you expect. Clinical studies show that testosterone replacement therapy reduces body fat by an average of 3–6 kg over 12 months while simultaneously increasing lean muscle mass by 1–3 kg. The scale might barely move, but your
TRT costs most men between $50 and $500 per month, depending on whether you use insurance, which delivery method you choose, and how you handle lab work and doctor visits. The national average sits around $150–$250 per month for injectable testosterone with basic monitoring. That range surprises a lot
Testosterone enanthate and cypionate are nearly identical for TRT purposes. Both have similar half-lives (roughly 7–8 days vs. 8 days), deliver the same active hormone, and produce comparable blood levels at the same dose. The real differences come down to carrier oil, post-injection pain, cost, and how your body
The five most common sites to inject testosterone are the ventrogluteal hip, the vastus lateralis (outer quad), the deltoid (shoulder), the dorsogluteal (upper-outer buttock), and subcutaneous tissue in the abdomen or thigh.

Testosterone Levels by Age: What's Normal, What's Optimal, and What Your Numbers Actually Mean Total testosterone in healthy adult men typically ranges from 300 to 1,000 ng/dL, but what counts as "normal" shifts significantly by decade. A 25-year-old averaging 600–700 ng/
You need TRT. You also want kids — now or someday. These two goals can feel like they're in direct conflict, and frankly, the internet doesn't make it clearer. You'll find people claiming TRT makes you permanently sterile right next to others saying they fathered
You're on TRT and it's working — energy's up, mood is stable, you feel like yourself again. Then someone mentions HCG and suddenly you're wondering if you're missing a critical piece of your protocol. Or maybe you're planning to
Your doctor prescribed 150mg of testosterone cypionate per week. You're holding a vial labeled 200mg/mL. How much do you actually draw into the syringe? If you hesitated, you're not alone. Dosage math trips up a surprising number of men — and getting it wrong means either
