This is an article from US News. It's basically saying to do everything else except TRT. What bothers is that you don't really here this about women who get HRT. Doctors will line up to give them the estrogen patch, but for some reason low T levels in a man are just a part of aging. "Rub some dirt on it and get back to work", seems to be what they are saying. I'll include a link for the full article at the bottom.
Not so fast. Lobbying a doctor for a dose of the male hormone before looking for other reasons for your problem is a bad idea. If low testosterone isn't the culprit, focusing on it wastes time and money better spent on finding the real cause, perhaps a circulatory condition, that could pose a greater threat to your health. And even if your testosterone is slightly low, there's no guarantee that kicking it up pharmaceutically will help, says Peter Snyder, professor of medicine at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine who has studied testosterone for 35 years. "There are people who are looking for the Fountain of Youth," he says. The reality, he says, is that they "are not acting on the basis of evidence."
Current research hinting that a testosterone hike has health benefits for the average man is "tantalizing but by no means conclusive," says Snyder, who is directing the "T-Trial," a $47 million study now recruiting participants that should take a large step toward the ultimate answer. Sponsored by the National Institutes of Health, the trial will follow 800 low-testosterone men age 65 and older *with a possibly related physical, sexual, or other problem for two years to see how much they benefit from a testosterone gel supplement. Evan Hadley, director of the division of geriatrics and clinical gerontology at the NIH's National Institute on Aging, estimates researchers will publish results in about six years. If the benefits are significant, a larger trial will assess risks. That will take another six years.
