Testosterone Supplements : When Do You Need them?

Testosterone is a hormone that plays a vital role in the development and maintenance of male physical characteristics and sexual function. Testosterone supplements have become highly popular nowadays and this is especially applicable for men who seek to increase their testosterone levels. Here are some situations where you may need such supplements.

Low testosterone levels

Low testosterone levels, also known as hypogonadism, can lead to a variety of symptoms such as decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, fatigue, and muscle weakness. However, these supplements can help alleviate these symptoms and improve the overall quality of your life.

Ageing

As men age, their testosterone levels naturally decline. This can lead to a variety of symptoms such as decreased muscle mass, increased body fat, and decreased bone density. Testosterone pills can help counteract these effects of ageing and improve your overall health and vitality.

Testicular cancer treatment

Treatment for testicular cancer, such as radiation therapy or chemotherapy, can lead to decreased testosterone levels as well. These supplements can help you deal better with the symptoms of low testosterone and cope with such effects of cancer treatment.

Klinefelter syndrome

Klinefelter syndrome is a genetic condition that results in the presence of an extra X chromosome in males. This can lead to decreased testosterone levels and a variety of symptoms such as decreased muscle mass and erectile dysfunction. A testosterone booster can be immensely helpful to you in such a situation by easing these symptoms and making sure that you lead a better life overall.

Bodybuilding and athletic performance enhancement

Testosterone supplements are often used by bodybuilders and athletes to enhance their athletic performance and build muscle mass. However, the use of testosterone supplements for this purpose is controversial and can have negative health effects. So, as you can see for yourself, there are many situations where you may need these supplements. Whether you are experiencing low testosterone levels, are ageing, have undergone testicular cancer treatment, have Klinefelter syndrome, or are seeking to enhance your athletic performance, these supplements can be an effective solution. This is especially so when you get them from the best brands out there such as andSons Singapore. However, it is important to talk to your healthcare provider before starting with these supplements as they can have negative health effects when taken without proper instruction and supervision. If you are choosing a testosterone supplement look for the one that contains natural ingredients and has been clinically tested for safety and efficacy.

any trans person should get HRT for free (no insurance required) and in exchange they should participate in the occasional study/survey.

research into sex hormones and their effects is so scarce and you have a whole ass population group who's willing to not only switch up their hormones but keep it up for very long periods of time. you could run some incredible long term studies with participants across all sorts of demographics.

while it's impossible to conduct any blind studies on this due to observable change in appearance, there's still so so so much data we're giving up on because we'd rather...

lemme check my notes. that cant be right.

...because we'd rather deny trans people health care and let them die. huh.

I’m not saying I wanna be spit roasted by them and manhandled, or reminded I am in fact shorter and ‘weaker’ than them and to do as I’m told, or tied up while they let out their frustration on me after a rough week, or being overstimulated and praised because they need something to hyperfixate on and my whines are perfect, or that I want them to edge/and or tease me all day without being allowed to touch till their home and can handle it because I shouldn’t have to think for myself, or have them feed into my voice kink by praising me and telling me where to touch and how, definitely not saying I wanna orally fixate on them by giving them head because I wanna feel them twitch and cum in my mouth, I dEFFINITLY am not saying I want to mark them up with hickies and tell them how good it feels, or be marked by them and told over and over how I’m theirs and how pretty my bruised or flushed skin looks. Definitely not, nope.

reflections on hormones and medical misogyny and hoop-jumping

in order to start testosterone, i ended up having to pay i think £480 total for three (3) separate appointments with two (2) separate psychiatrists to admit that i'm definitely trans before i could get a referral to an endocrinologist which also cost me several hundred pounds so that they could prescribe testosterone. i was lucky that my GP did the blood tests or i would have had to pay for those too, likewise they took over the prescriptions so i only pay the £9.50ish charge for those rather than the full price, but it was still a hell of a lot of a cash to fork out. i had to pay all of this because the waiting list for a first appointment with the gender clinic is more than five years and bc they make nonbinary people jump through more hoops for referrals than they do for binary trans people following a more conventional transition path. they now test my blood every 3 months to make sure everything's at a healthy level and it's not having a knock-on impact on my organs and they check in regularly about dosage

when i was seventeen i had a single conversation with a GP after which they put me on the combined contraceptive pill, for which i never paid a penny, and which i stayed on more or less continuously (there was one break for a few months) until i was 28. for 11 years this altered my body's hormone levels to the point of suppressing my testosterone to the absolute lowest level that could be considered technically "healthy". it just about performed its required function of making my periods regular and semi-bearable, but along the way this fucked my joints, my muscle strength, my ability to grow body hair, my energy levels, and my ability to concentrate. for eleven years. on the basis of one appointment with a non-specialist as a teenager. they never tested anything except my blood pressure and even that got skipped as time went on and they could dismiss it as "nice and low" while ignoring my chronic anaemia and fatigue

why does fucking with my hormones in one direction require constant oversight and jumping through tons of hoops, and the other doesn't? why are they so alert to the side effects of gender-affirming care, and completely ignoring the side effects of other hormonal healthcare?

it's not that they shouldn't have prescribed me the pill or should have put additional barriers in place; it's that i shouldn't have had to jump through all those hoops to access testosterone. it's not that they shouldn't be monitoring the impact of the testosterone, it's that they should have monitored the impact of the pill. it's not that 17yo me shouldn't have been trusted to give informed consent, it's that 17yo me wasn't informed but was permitted to consent, while 28yo me was informed but not permitted to consent, and had to jump through dehumanising hoops instead to have strangers assess whether they deserved to make choices

they fucked me over with both sets of hormones. they whacked my body's hormone sliders firmly towards the oestrogen/progesterone ends of the spectrum without a second thought, because that was "natural", so fuck the side effects, but they made it as hard for me as possible to try to go the other way. i was anaemic and could scarcely grow body hair and had injuries that refused to heal for years and couldn't concentrate or stay awake for a DECADE but i'm supposed to be scared of the possibility of male pattern baldness? (i mean. i am. but going a bit bald feels a small price to pay for feeling awake when my eyes are open, to borrow a phrase from the raven cycle)

so much of it in both directions is medical misogyny: the idea that i have a particular body which is supposed to behave in a particular way and so the only "solutions" available are those which conform to this, and the lack of research into the actual effects of hormones like oestrogen and progesterone on other health conditions

but what really sickens me is how they say "you can't possibly make this decision, we have to keep people away from these side effects, we don't know what impact this has on bodies long-term" but they'll put a 17yo on the pill and then abandon them despite ten years of chronic illness with no further investigation into how artificial hormone levels might be affecting some of that chronic illness. you can't have it both ways, medicine. either hormones need monitoring and caring about or they don't

access to the pill is healthcare. it should be done on an informed consent model, and needs careful monitoring to make sure it's helping not harming, and adjustments if necessary.

access to gender affirming hormones is healthcare. it should be done on an informed consent model, and needs careful monitoring to make sure it's helping not harming, and adjustments if necessary.

instead you have to fight tooth-and-nail for one and pay through the nose for it, and the other distributed carelessly with little thought or follow-up. i am only now beginning to realise how profoundly i was being fucked over by the pill and just because it also helped me does not mean it was fine that that happened and that, crucially, nobody would have realised it was happening if i hadn't decided to go on T (prompting both investigations into my actual hormone levels, and then perceptible changes once they began to shift). because they did not give a fuck. because it was "natural" for a "female" body to behave like that, right?

anyway idk if i'm gonna stay on T forever but i don't think i could ever go back on the combined pill knowing what i know now about how it's possible for my body to feel when my T level isn't literally 0.5. i'm not thrilled about the idea of going for lucky dip hormone fluctuations given how well that's gone for me in the past but i guess i'll cross that bridge when i come to it. there's got to be some kind of viable option out there for me

When your libido spikes hit you like a fucking freight train so now you’re still half asleep and stuffed full because it almost hurt to not have something inside and on my tdick, holy shit. Now my brain is fuzzy as I grind onto it while it set on high because I crave feeling something inside me.
