    It’s fine, we don’t need it, stop identifying yourself or defining your manhood based on a chemical.

      Forget manhood or being a man. Testosterone has more effects than making people angry or horny. It can influence general mood, energy levels, weight and muscle control, and that’s just the stuff off the top of my head. Women have, and need, some levels of testosterone, and men need some levels of estrogen. End point, we do in fact need testosterone.

        We have some. We don’t need double.

          Do you have any sort of medical training that would qualify you to say that?

              I’m not the one giving out information, positioning myself as a source worthy of being listened to, but since you asked, yes. Do you understand the Socratic method? It should be assumed I’m a layman, if the other user has some sort of training or experience I’m certainly open to any information they might have.

                  Extensive, I wonder how much the other poster has. I bet not enough or they wouldn’t say dumb shit like “you have enough you don’t need more” without running some blood tests, or at least giving a window of normal levels.

                  What about you? What’s your medical background?
