Testosterone Therapy in Men: What You Need to Know with Dr. Amy Brode
Testosterone therapy in men is everywhere right now, but the conversation is far more nuanced than simply checking a testosterone level and writing a prescription. In this episode of No Filter Doctor, I’m joined by board-certified urologist Dr. Amy Brode for an in-depth discussion about low testosterone and testosterone therapy in men. We discuss what “low testosterone” actually means, symptoms and testing, reversible causes, who may benefit from treatment, fertility, different treatment options, and when testosterone should be avoided. We also dig into the TRAVERSE trial and what newer evidence tells us about cardiovascular and prostate cancer risk. And, of course, we bust some testosterone myths along the way.
