This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I know a guy who took T for gains at one point in his life. He says it felt great at the time, he had more energy and his gains were amazing but now he doesn't naturally produce enough testosterone of his own and it's fucking his joints up in old age. His bone density is closer to that of a woman in his age group and one of his hands is essentially disintegrating.

His words, not mine.

Hey trans girls I found a new lifehack

Has he thought about starting taking T again? In my city there are tons of clinics specifically for T replacement therapy, they do blood tests, make up an IV or pill cocktail for you with all the hormones and vitamins you need, and get you on track health wise. They’re not for big gains, they’re solely for keeping you healthy

Is there a specific name for that type of clinic? You got me curious now.

[–] JJROKCZ@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

Normally it’s advertised as a men’s health clinic, one of the specific ones near me is Mantality (unsure on spelling) and Victory Men’s Health, I only remember them because they advertise heavily here. There’s probably better options but searching for men’s health clinics will probably get you where you want. Some of them are only peddling ED pills so a bit of research is needed to find a place with a real doctor performing real medicine instead of slinging Alex Jones pills

Serves him right for being a quitter
