What's the threshold for that treatment?

Trans lesbians are a huge scam, imo. I will never approve.

250 ng/dl or lower for men is considered medically hypogonadal. But either way it’s a good idea to get a blood test just to get levels checked, and keep in mind that this level can fluctuate a small amount through the day so morning or afternoon timing of the blood draw can matter a little
Even if you don’t qualify as hypogonadal, all you need to get a diagnosis that will allow treatment is to report some of the signs, such as lethargy, low sex drive, difficulty putting on and retaining muscle, etc. Then most TRT doctors will treat you regardless of what your test comes back at, but it will be out of pocket pay. Doing some shopping around for a reputable online one where you test locally and send the results in for consultations and you can probably find TRT as low as $80-100/mo
It’s pretty safe long term, in fact the regular blood tests (about 1-2/yr) actually help catch various things such as PSA score as a cancer indicator. My dad has been on it for more than a decade now with no issues. And he can still crush me in kayak race at 70, and says (which I don’t care to hear) that he still has the libido he had at 20 at 70. His test usually comes back around 1,200 ng/dl, so slightly above the natural limit but because he doesn’t lift he’s not big or jacked
