Summary

Testosterone is a sex hormone. It makes a man a man and gives both men and women their sex drive. Over the past few years, however, the increased hype around testosterone and the treatment commonly known as “Low T” has wreaked havoc, with many patients who didn’t know what they were getting into.

More and more physicians are prescribing testosterone to their patients with the intention of giving them back their zest for life. As a result, a new addiction has emerged: addiction to testosterone. My book sheds light on this emerging epidemic. It comes from my personal experience with using testosterone, and also from people who have fallen prey to the pellet pushers and those who are selling testosterone.

Some have said that I am brave to share my story. Some are in awe of the time and money I have spent researching, creating websites and anonymous surveys, and the countless hours I have invested talking with families who have been destroyed by testosterone.

Yet there is hope for recovery, and I will show you how to do that through my own recovery journey, and those who have - or are - recovering. Their stories tell how testosterone replacement therapy hijacked their minds, bodies, and brains, and in some cases created a destructive path like mine, which, I admit, “had me at the brink of suicide”. Finally, I share how I pulled myself out of the darkest years of my life, reclaimed my sense of self, and became whole, by the grace of God. I had to free myself from testosterone addiction.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Not the best

I feel all I’ve listened to is folk experience on testosterone therapy and not actually learned anything , seems more and more audible just let anyone published books on there site without testing the content first, just my opinion that’s all
