What are the benefits of using this for someone in their late 30's?

At what point should it be used?

Are their any harmful side effects?

It is Rx testosterone gel and contains 5 grams per dose.

Did a search on it but none touched on Rx. Any other input would also be helpful.

Thanks,

Mojo

Age can be considered....but it is not necessarily the defining point. Most folks use over 40 where hormone imbalance(subsequently trt therapy may be looked into), but this is a broad jump.

No one can really give an age, as I am quite sure you may have seen or know of even teens who have gyno, etc. which may indeed be from a hormone inbalance or high aromatazation of T. So, therapy here may save years of shitty lifestyle, etc.

Hard to fit all in a short post, but if you need this then it can indeed be beneficial. But remember, you need to control E also. An increase in T can lead to a higher increase in E if it is not effectively controlled and exasperate matters. The body is very smart at some point at binding up free test(SHBG) and rendering it useless, and thus E will attach to the T receptors and bind them up making T unable to be used.
