Since the 1950s

Once every two months

Once a week or maybe twice a week

Look at, why did people get weight in the first place? It's related to our lifestyle, diet and exercise, but also some external factors, maybe some environmental factors. And we're seeing low testosterone in men at younger ages than before. Now, testosterone replacement has been FDA approved since 1950s. There's three major forms of testosterone replacement. One is injectable. That's probably the most common, where somebody gives themselves a shot. Used to be once every two months, but now it's actually once a week or maybe twice a week. And there's form formulas for that. And that's a common option for people to give themselves a shot at.
