I’ve been on the gel for many years. World of difference. Shots are up and down, gel is consistent. My Dr monitors my blood work, etc. Good to hear. Just curious. How old an ole boy are ya anyhows?

your body is doing what it's supposed to. It's not worth the risk from the side effects. Dying, that's what you are doing. Nobody has time for that Bob hint, no one gets out alive.

I would not want to mess with trying to override the natural path our body takes. What is the benefit? More energy? Get more sleep and eat right. Better sex? Only if you have a 21 year old wife or girlfriend. My 70 year old wife's ship has sailed so that has been off the table for several years. More money for your doctor? I'm sure that is why he is pushing it. To me it is not worth the possible health risk for little to no gain. I'm good with that.

I’m intrigued but am worried about the side effects. The numbers of studies on this are numerous. Most of the ones Ive read have a lot of precautions. Risk vs rewards have to be considered.

I think the gains are a lot more than you may realize, but I agree with you about the health risk. On the flip side being overweight at an older age could be just as bad as the potential side effects.

I do have high cholesterol and take meds for that for years

Exactly the same here.Yeah, I dont think the wife would be good with me getting a girlfriend.  I think the same about why he is pushing it. Must be some money in it if I takke it. Im sure leaning the same, not taking it.
