############################# Video Source: www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTnAXQHUhb4

Gynecomastia (male breast growth) is a side effect of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT.) This video is the second in my series, “On Testosterone,” where I discuss the factors that should be considered while on TRT and before starting. I cover the science and causes of gynecomastia, how to assess your risk before starting TRT, and how to manage gynecomastia while on testosterone. If you are on TRT or considering it and concerned about gynecomastia, watch this video! • For information on my practice and consultations, visit https://www.testosteronology.com • For anabolic recovery consults, visit: http://www.testosteronology.com/anabo... • New government guidelines allow me to offer fully remote care to most new TRT and Anabolic Recovery patients.

I do NOT in any way support the use of any performance enhancing drugs - PEDs, anabolic steroid or other medicine for muscle building or body transformation. The “off-label” use of PEDs, as such agents is considered illicit and may lead to adverse health outcomes. Please consult an expert health professional regarding any medical agent and do NOT use any medicine without the explicit advice and supervision of an appropriate medical expert. • This video is for education and information only.
