On February 24, 2023, the Drug Enforcement Agency announced proposed rules for prescribing controlled substances via telemedicine after the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency expires.
The proposed rules were open for public comment for only thirty days, after which DEA would presumably issue final regulations. The proposal created two new limited options for telemedicine prescribing of controlled substances without a prior in-person exam. The options were complex and more restrictive than what has been allowed for the past three years under the covid waivers.
The DEA’s proposal would discontinue the ability for telemedicine prescribing of controlled substances where the patient never has any in-person exam (with the exception of a prescription period of no more than 30 days’ supply). The initial reactionis the rules are more restrictive than necessary and impose concerning limitations and burdens on clinicians and the patients they treat.
In response to more than 38,000 comments on the proposal, the DEA and the Department of Health and Human Services submitted a draft temporary rule to the Office of Management and Budget that provides a temporary extension of telehealth flexibilities for controlled substance prescriptions. Details about the rule will become public after it is published in the Federal Register. I don't know when that will be.
Testosterone, a hormone primarily associated with the development of male sexual characteristics, plays a role in bone growth and maturation during puberty. However, once a person has reached the end of their puberty and their growth plates have closed, which usually occurs in late adolescence or early adulthood, further increase in height is unlikely, regardless of testosterone levels.
During puberty, testosterone promotes the growth and fusion of the long bones, such as those in the arms and legs, which can result in an increase in height. However, once the growth plates at the ends of these bones close, usually by the age of 18-20 years in males, further height increase is not possible as the bones have reached their maximum length.
It's important to note that the effects of testosterone on height are influenced by various factors, including genetics, nutrition, and overall health. If you have concerns about your height or development, it's best to consult with a healthcare professional who can provide personalized advice and guidance based on your individual circumstances.

Testosterone/erection connection
Leading a large group of TRT guys. We often see guys complaining that now that they're on trt, they want sex more. The complaint is that the spouse is not on the same level, and then being ignorant men, people chime in with the obligatory "does she have a sister" type comments. So testosterone creates certain personality traits in men, that don't always translate directly to women. What I like try - is using my energy and ambition from TRT to serve Kayla in ways I know typically turn her on. Dishes, laundry, handling life…being helpful. This woman is driven wild when I'm just helpful. Tell us a bit about how women are different, being estrogen-driven and what men can do to communicate through that.

Testosterone is a hormone that belongs to a group of hormones called androgens, which are responsible for the development and maintenance of male sexual characteristics. Testosterone is primarily produced in the testes in males, although it is also produced in smaller amounts in the adrenal glands in both males and females.
Testosterone exerts its effects in the body by binding to androgen receptors, which are present in various tissues throughout the body. Once testosterone binds to these receptors, it can enter the cell and interact with the cell's DNA, leading to changes in gene expression and protein synthesis. This, in turn, results in a wide range of physiological effects on different tissues and organs in the body.
Some of the key functions of testosterone in males include:
It's important to note that testosterone levels in the body are regulated by a complex feedback system involving the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, and testes. Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is a medical intervention that involves supplementing testosterone in individuals with low testosterone levels, under the guidance of a healthcare professional. TRT can be used to treat certain medical conditions related to testosterone deficiency, but it should always be done under the supervision of a qualified healthcare provider, as improper use of testosterone or other androgens can have potential risks and side effects.

Elevated Hematocrit - TRT may increase your blood viscosity or proportion of red blood affecting cardio health. I've spoken to doctors that require the patient to stop trt because of this, donate blood because of this, and even some that do nothing - using elevation hematocrit as reason (colorado)

Today I'm talking with Dr. Joseph Antoun, CEO of L-Nutra, former Director of Health Policy at the University of Chicago, and former Editor in Chief of the Journal of Health Systems and Reform. We'll be talking about a recent study by The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism on the effects of a fasting-mimicking diet (FMD) on type 2 diabetes in adults; and to reveal the findings of which that suggest it is the first-ever nutrition-based program found to promote regression and remission of diabetes and—the truly groundbreaking discovery—support temporary reversal of diabetic nephropathy.
The fasting-mimicking diet has gained recognition in recent years as an approach to weight loss and overall human longevity. Until now, options for slowing the progression of diabetic nephropathy have been limited to controlling glycemia, lipidemia, and blood pressure. This new study suggests a game-changing approach. It's the first time scientists and doctors have discovered an effective reversal of kidney disease through nutrition.
Fasting is not just for diabetic patients. Everyone can benefit from the process and Dr. Antoun explains how and why.

So I got my blood results back, Testosterone is 1265 and Estradiol is 17. I’ve only been taking 100mg per week in shot form. Dr just upped me to 150mg, but that was before the test results, my testosterone was 1265 on the 100mg dose. So my question is, do I just stay at 100mg since my testosterone level is so high already? Is there any negative effects I need to be aware of? I am weightlifting as well and it’s really helped.

I haven’t started the test yet as I’ve been trying to weigh everything out. The doctor says it’s no big deal and I’ll be able to have kids. The only reason it makes me nervous is because it seems like he is a sales person for trt.
Sorry for the long post, what I’m getting at is what would you do in my position? I’d love to feel better and get my life back together.
Chris Stevens - My T level was 72 a few weeks ago. I’m 32 years old.
I’ve taken my 4th injection today. I don’t feel any difference at all. Is that normal? I’ve been taking between 200 and 150mg each week.
Not sure how long it takes to see improvement. Energy is okay, zero sex drive, zero thoughts about sex, zero morning erections, focus etc feels not much improved.

Ashley Zulch - Has anyone gone off of hcg and just stuck to testosterone? My husband went on hcg in august and off of testosterone so we could conceive and now is off of hcg and only on testosterone. He stopped taking hcg in November and still feels just as bad as he did when on hcg. He gained 40lbs once on the hcg and felt worse than he did before his low t diagnosis.
We were just wondering if there is a certain amount of time if takes for hcg to leave the body. I’m really concerned because he’s struggling so much.

On today's episode we discuss the following:
TRT Community Post - I posted this short blog, about weight loss drugs in the TRT Community Facebook group. The first sentence was something like, "Losing weight can be an incredibly difficult endeavor…" A fellow responded and informed me that losing weight is not difficult and a conversation ensued.
Just because something has a step process you can follow, doesn't make it easy. I could rebuild a transmission with the proper instructions, but there's a reason specialty shops exist. Have you ever had a pack of clutch plates laying on a work bench???
Topic One: Semaglutide & Tirzepitide
Semaglutide -
The more GLP-1, the more full you are
Side effects - Diarrhea, Nausea, Constipation, vomiting
Tirzepatide
(Mounjaro) currently approved for DM treatment
The way I think about it is like this: Semaglutide, Ozempic, Rybelsus, Wegovy - it's like having a fellow in your brain telling you to stop eating. Tirzepatide or Mounjaro is like have 2 fellows in your brain TELLING you to stop eating.
The most effective weight loss medication ever made available with an average weigh tloss of 22.5% over the course of a year.
Personal experience - started taking Semaglutide about 7 months ago. Lost about 10% BW in a few months and plateaued. Started Tirzepatide this month. Not much side effects. Feeling bloated/full most of the time
Tirzepatide highly effective for weight loss - PubMed (nih.gov)
Facebook Questions:
Did TRT improve your anxiety and confidence? Maybe is the fact that I’m autistic, but all my life Ive been prone to being anxious when interacting with others regardless of how many times I do it. I’m 38 and even if I’m “relaxed” there is still a “slight” anxiety underneath that’s probably unseen by others yet I feel it. Maybe I’m just a nervous person but I have noticed my anxiety has gotten worse compared to 10 years ago. I feel more confident than when I was younger from life experience and maturity but still anxious. I’m also more prone to being fearful than some but I fight it and contain it. I wish I was like those guys seem to have no fear and have nerves of steel. That’s life but who knows maybe i have a bigger weiner or higher IQ than them.
So many folks focus on the physical improvement aspects of TRT. The mental health benefits are what I'm most passionate about. Before TRT - I was anxious daily, no confidence, counting hours before I had to do things like go to work, afraid to speak up, engage people in social situations, seeking validation from other people and manipulating them into providing you with value. I was super impatient. Here's a quick video of my after experience

Today I'm chatting with Scott Brunner, CEO of the Alliance for Pharmacy Compounding about the unjust attack the FDA and USP are waging against compounded hormone therapies. There are impending regulation changes approaching based on an incredible overreach of the FDA, with very little to no scienced based evidence for patient benefit. More batches, smaller batches means increased cost. The BUD restrictions are arbitrarily created, and increased cost is ineffective.

Does Acoustic Wave therapy work or is it snake oil? Today we've got Dr. Paul Thompson with us. Dr. Paul is the Medical Director for Launch Medical. Launch Medical has designed The Phoenix, which is an Acoustic Wave Therapy Device that was specifically designed for safe and effective use at home. Acoustic Wave Therapy Works by sending powerful sound waves into the targeted tissue, causing micro-trauma to the blood vessels beneath the skin, fostering angiogenesis, or the growth of new blood vessels. It's like lifting weights for your penis. We've spoken to Dr. Paul before and you can listen to that here.

Today we are chatting about sleep apnea and syringe size. I had a Reddit discussion with a fellow last week that argued that there was no difference in syringe size and work required to inject so we did a little science to decide who was right.

Brandon: (00:03)
What's going on guys? This is Brandon with the TRT community. You are listening to the All Things Testosterone Podcast and today we are talking about polycythemia/elevated hematocrit.
Brandon: (00:27)
Before I get into that, I want to just, uh, give a shout out to Michael Ashford of the Fit Dad Fitness podcast. He interviewed me last week. We talked for like 45 or 60 minutes or so and it really just kind of flashed me back to five years ago. It reminded me why I do this. There's an entire world of people out there that don't, that don't know anything about TRT. The only that only know what they hear they see on daytime TV commercials and you know, sometimes I get lost in the little TRT community bubble and I just take it for granted that, you know, everyone at least has knows something about it. But the reality is that there are millions or billions of people that, that think it's unhealthy or that just have never heard of it. So it was nice to talk with him and get outside of the TRT community bubble and yeah just to be able to remember that there are guys out there that are super fit and super knowledgeable but they may not be knowledgeable in TRT. So it was a pretty cool conversation. I'll let you know whenever it gets published.
Brandon: (01:28)
If you live in or frequent Texas and you're interested in TRT treatment text Texas to 66866. That's gonna subscribe you to the email list for our upcoming Texas clinic. I talked about it last week, but we are going to handle all Texas patients. If you're in Texas we want to handle your care. It's going to be customer service first kind of clinic and I mean that more than anything. I mean a lot of people will say it, but we are going to take care of you. We are going to be reasonably priced. We're going to be competitive with everybody else out there and we are going to answer the phone when you call. We are going to take care of you. We have knowledgeable practitioners. We know what we're doing, it's going to be amazing. Um, I'm really excited about it.
Brandon: (02:13)
So I did a poll on the TRT Community Facebook page and I basically asked just how many TRT patients have experienced elevated hematocrit or polycythaemia. 74% said yes, this is probably the most, if not one of the top three most common side effects to TRT and it's super easy to avoid. It can be super dangerous and it can cause your doctor to discontinue treatment if he's not super well versed in TRT.
Brandon: (02:43)
First let's talk about some of the issues that can arise if you have prolonged exposure to elevated hermatocrit. It's what gives you all the issues. Elevated HCT is where the heart attacks come from. That's where the strokes come from. That's where everything you see on daytime TV, you know, class action lawsuits come from.
Brandon: (03:09)
So it, it's dangerous. It causes blood clots and if nothing else your Dr. May stop your treatment and you definitely don't want that. So basically all it means is that your blood is thicker because you have more red blood cells and your heart has to work harder to pump the same amount of blood. So it makes sense why it can be dangerous because your heart's going to give out quicker if it's having to work harder to do the same job. Let's talk about the symptoms of it. Blurred or double vision, shortness of breath, headaches, itching, flushed, skin, tiredness and excessive sweating. My tell-tale signs are probably shortness of breath, headaches and excessive sweating. When this starts happening, I know that my hematocrit is getting up there and that I need to do something about it.
Brandon: (03:59)
So the simple solutions, you can drink more water and I mean a lot of water, you can eat grapefruit every day. You can try subcutaneous shots and you can do more frequent smaller doses. This sub Q and or more frequent smaller doses handles it for a lot of guys. That's all they change and they're good to go. If that doesn't do it for you, you can also donate blood. It's probably the most common way that guys handle or you know, manage it. That's what I do. I donate quarterly and that, that does it for me. Um, I just, you know, I wanted to, to be able to mention it because not only is it dangerous and you need to avoid it, but your doctor might stop your treatment, like I said, and, and you know, it's just unnecessary. Just go donate blood.
Brandon: (04:43)
Some guys will get hung up on crashing Ferritin by donating too often. I mean, I've always thought that's absurd. Not that it can't happen, but, you know, that's something that is even talked about when donating blood can save your life in someone else's life. But the hangup is you don't want to crash your ferritin. I mean it, it's so rare. It just doesn't happen often. It's almost like it happened to this one guy and he's just telling it to everyone. I think it's kind of ridiculous. So I wouldn't worry about that. If it becomes an issue. It's not that big of a deal. Um, but you're only donating, you know, in regular intervals of like what, 56 days anyway. So if it was going to happen to you, it could happen to other people too that donate frequently.
Brandon: (05:27)
So, I'm talking to BignoKnow (Noah Thomas) on Tuesday. So in just a couple of days. In fact, by the time you're listening to this, I'm, I'm probably gonna be interviewing him and I'm more excited about that interview than I have been about any interview. I love Noah. I've talked about him a lot on this podcast, so it's no secret. I was shocked to learn that only something like 20% of the TRT community listens to him or knows who he is. I mean, he, he was my version of the TRT community whenever I started TRT. He's the one that, that I got all my information from and he's just so vulnerable, so open, so honest. I really, really love that guy. So I'll be talking to him soon. Uh, yeah. Let me know what, uh, what you would change about your current TRT provider. Is it too expensive, as a service? Terrible. Um, do they not have enough extras for you, you know, the random get jacked supplements that they brand and sell to you? Or is their protocol bad? Just what are your pain points? I'd like to, with this Texas clinic and with the rest of the clinics that we plan on opening, I'd like to avoid as many as possible. So let me know, email me at brandon@trtcommunity.com. Let me know what sucks about your treatment and we'll see if we can't, um, can't come out of the gate being like the best. Anyway, I think that's it for real this time. Um, have a good week. Join the community at facebook.com/groups/trt community if you haven't already, and thank you for listening to the TRT community podcast.

Forgive him, he's also passionate about customer service and gets a bit heated while talking about some of the treatment options that refuse to answer their phones (Don't worry, the TRT Community has a solution coming).

Today I had the pleasure of chatting with a good friend of mine, Erik, about the stigma associated with testosterone. We got into the issues surrounding perceptions, "steroids," and touched on environmental factors that influence the testosterone levels of modern man like PFAS chemicals. Why were our grandfathers levels so much higher than ours?
Erik is a "normie," meaning he's not on TRT so we got some good outside perspective.

Brandon explains the functions of hCG while on TRT and how crucial it is to maintain the balance of your Hypothalamic Pituitary Testicular Axis. It's far more than fertility and testicle size.

I have my long time friend, Ian in the studio with me today and we're discussing why he stopped TRT and what he noticed after going "cold turkey."

Listen to Brandon's story. We think you can probably relate.
