Episode 14: TRT 102 – The Real Risks, Rewards, and What Happens After 60
Testosterone therapy isn’t just for bodybuilders—or for men chasing aesthetics in midlife. For many men over 60, it’s about something else entirely: staying strong, staying functional, and staying present.
This episode goes beyond the hype and digs into what really happens when older men start TRT. What improves? What doesn’t? And what are the real trade-offs?
We cover:
- Sexual function: what comes back, and what might not
- Muscle mass and energy: reclaiming strength vs. unrealistic expectations
- Emotional and cognitive clarity: the return of presence
- Long-term risks: hematocrit, prostate health, fertility, and cardiac concerns
- What happens to your body after 60—and how testosterone can support or complicate that process
Whether you’re considering therapy or already on it, this is a grounded look at the truth behind the protocol—especially for older men who are fighting not just low T, but time.
