We have to look at. Why did people get weight in the first place? It's obviously related to our lifestyle, diet and exercise, but also some external factors, some, 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.

And there's formulas for that. And that's a common option for people to give themselves a shot at home.
