TRT in men in their Nineties

[Bremster]

It has been a while since I posted anything, I turned 93 in January, my Urologist has been suggesting that I lower my dosage of Testosterone. Without getting into specifics numbers, my testosterone levels were about 1500 total. I should add that all of other blood markers were within acceptable range, all, no exceptions. Any way I still tried and succeeded in getting it down in 1000 range, I have noticed a drop off in sexual performance and desire, also some joint pain occasionally, so I bumped up my testosterone to about 250 mg per week and I am back. So, my rhetorical question is, maybe you when you get as old as I am, you need a little more testosterone than younger men?

Keep on keeping on! You're a role model. As to your question, I remember seeing that the body actually conserves T as we get older, however there are some people who just do better at higher levels so maybe you're one of them regardless of age. It may also be that if something else is in decline, such as growth hormone, that the T is partially compensating for that. Just guesses.

That's awesome, you're 93 is still looking good. I agree with you. Most younger men seem to do worse on higher levels. Older men seem to do better at higher levels like me. I'm in your camp. I need high-levels to feel my best.
