Refreshing to see, our whole medical system needs change. A natural hormone prescribed at therapeutic replacement dosages gets a black box warning yet all these pharma drugs advertised on tv that have a laundry list of dangerous side effects yet no black box warning....hmm

At least we are finally seeing the destigmatization for testosterone, I remember it wasnt too long ago that they wouldnt even say the word testoserone in commercials, it was "low T"
