As you get older your body produces less
testosterone. In some men, the decline of natural test production is significantly more pronounced or happens earlier than most. This lack of testosterone can lead to lack of energy, weight gain, loss of lean muscle mass, depression, loss of sex drove, etc. Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) is the use of synthetic testosterone administered in a way that will bring testosterone levels back to within a normal range.

The risks are significantly less those faces by someone who is using synthetic testosterone to boost their levels well above normal adult male levels. That isn’t to say it’s risk free but your getting pharmaceutical grade, FDA approved testosterone that will be taken as prescribed by a doctor. The frequency and route of administration varies depending on the specific esther of test.
