Integrating TRT with Lifestyle: Not Just a Shot in the Dark
Truth bomb: Any treatment without lifestyle backing is like putting premium gas in a clunker. I’ve always believed in a holistic approach—mix a bit of yoga with some healthy eating, throw in optimal sleep, and maybe then consider medical options like TRT.
Lifestyle changes come first. I'm talking about the kind where you might actually have to eat a salad once in a while and perhaps hit the gym more than you hit the pubs.
