He mentions Bhasin's latest paper when speaking about TT vs FT!
45:34-58:43 (TT vs FT, estradiol/AI, hematocrit)
In this episode, Dr. Steinberg sits down with world-renowned testosterone therapy pioneer Dr. Abraham Morgentaler. From studying testosterone in lizards at Harvard to becoming a leading academic urologist, Dr. Morgentaler shares his journey and challenges long-standing beliefs surrounding testosterone therapy.They explore the decades-old fear linking testosterone to prostate cancer, why traditional testosterone testing can be misleading, and how modern research is reshaping the way testosterone deficiency is understood and treated.
Key Topics:
Dr. Abraham Morgentaler
* What’s important to understand, though, is that the concept of testosterone therapy, in theory, is designed to replicate youthful levels of testosterone to help people who are deficient in this hormone. The goal isn’t to make them into supermen, and the real question is why do people want to go above normal, if at all?
Much of the concept of treating up, let’s say, to 1,000, let’s say, our normal upper limit, in the anti-aging community or age management community, there are some people who believe there’s an optimal level of testosterone that may be 1,200 or 1,500, or even, I’ve heard, 1,800, and the basis for that is WEAK!
* Optimal results often require T values in the upper range of normal (T 600-900 ng/dL)
* Some groups target T levels 1200-1800 ng/dL
* Supraphysiological/pharmacological rather than restoration of robust youthful levels
*However some men won't achieve adequate response until total T in upper levels of normal 650-1000 ng/dL
