@thecopticbrother: Why did I choose to go through the NHS for TRT when I’ve been managing it myself for years? Simple — to prove a point and share the reality. It’s easy for people to assume TRT is just something bodybuilders do, or that men are just “guessing” they have low testosterone and taking things into their own hands. But that’s not the full story. I chose the NHS route to highlight how hard it can actually be for men to get support, get tested properly, and be taken seriously. And also to show that low testosterone is a real medical condition — not just a gym trend. Too many men are walking around feeling exhausted, low in mood, struggling with recovery, low libido, brain fog, and being told it’s just stress, age, or lifestyle… when sometimes it’s actually low testosterone. Some facts worth knowing: • Testosterone levels in men have been declining for decades 📉 • Studies show average testosterone levels today are significantly lower than men of the same age 20–30 years ago • Around 1 in 4 men over 30 may have testosterone levels lower than optimal • Many men go undiagnosed because symptoms are often ignored or misunderstood This journey isn’t about shortcuts or trends — it’s about education, awareness, and removing the stigma. TRT isn’t just for bodybuilders. It’s for men who genuinely need medical support and want to feel like themselves again. If sharing my journey helps even one man recognise the signs, push for testing, or understand the process — then it’s worth it. #trt #testosteronetherapy #nhs #testosterone #FYP

well done for doing this and highlighting the fact that the NHS have no clue about trt. Good luck with your progress.

GP put me on the gel which isn’t too bad. £9 for three months supply, will look to move to injection soon- problem with the private clinics is the supply and the prices you pay and the risk prices can rise - we’re on this for life guys

I’m TRT through nhs, endocrinology specialist stuck me on gel for about a year, then moved to Nibido just over year ago, took few jabs to get levels right but definitely glad stuck it out rather than going private or self medicating like previous

Thanks for this and the awareness, may I ask if you are not on the threshold to access TRT, how did you do this on your own? Thank you!

As a woman who has issues with oestrogen and progesterone sensitivity you’re bang on. Testosterone produces issues for men when it is too low. No one should have to fight to be given this or assessed. Anything like this should be monitored by a doctor anyway nhs or not.
