What's the craziest thing you've ever done to bulk? Dave Crosland and Scott McNally look back at the extremes bodybuilders will go to in the pursuit of size — and how distorted your perception of your own body can become along the way. Then we get into your questions on a 15-year-old using Test, Tren and Mast, whether peptides are getting out of hand, post-cycle sexual performance, choosing a second compound with testosterone, whether different steroids actually build different-looking physiques, gaining muscle after massive weight loss, GLP-1s and muscle growth, testosterone-to-estrogen ratios, Arimidex, ephedrine and more. 0:00 Welcome to Drugs n Stuff 1:40 The Craziest Things We Did to Bulk 3:45 Bodybuilding & Distorted Body Image 9:00 15-Year-Old Using Test, Tren & Mast?! 10:30 Are Peptides Getting Out of Hand? 12:18 Will I Lose Bedroom Performance After My Cycle? 21:50 Best Second Compound to Add to Testosterone 24:00 Do Different Steroids Create Different Physiques? 28:00 Building Muscle After Massive Weight Loss 32:40 Do GLP-1 Drugs Reduce Muscle Gain? 36:00 Testosterone-to-Estrogen Ratios Explained 39:00 Caffeine & Vision Problems 41:45 Ephedrine in the US vs. UK 45:50 How Much Arimidex on 300–400mg Testosterone? 50:00 Australian Customs Are No Joke 54:10 Uncle Dave's Wisdom 1:04:40 What Would You Do in The Purge?

In this episode, Dr. Mary Alice Mina answers the internet's most asked questions about testosterone, topical estrogen, and perimenopause. Pulled straight from the comments section, she covers who can actually prescribe testosterone, whether estradiol and estriol can be used together on the face, what swollen eyelids might really mean, what lab work matters before starting testosterone therapy, how topical estrogen interacts with birth control pills, the correct way to apply topical estrogen, whether birth control suppresses testosterone, and whether estrogen levels need to be monitored while using topical treatments. She closes with a detailed answer on facial estradiol, hair thinning, and dry skin, and the collagen and elastin benefits the research does show. Want more support navigating your hormones?

In this provocative episode of ReversABLE, Josh Dech sits down with physician Dr. Tom Cowan for a wide-ranging conversation about disease, scientific reasoning, the heart, viruses, bacteria, environmental exposures, hormones, and the assumptions underlying conventional medicine. Cowan describes his unusual path into medicine, including 37 years in family practice, and explains the philosophy that drives much of his work: rather than immediately trying to determine what is true, first investigate whether the original claim has actually been demonstrated. That framework takes the conversation into controversial territory. Cowan challenges conventional explanations surrounding viruses and germ theory, using examples involving polio, measles, SARS-CoV-2, bacteria, antibodies, and laboratory procedures. He argues that some commonly accepted demonstrations of causation do not establish what they are claimed to establish. These are among the most contentious claims in the episode and are presented as Cowan's perspective rather than settled medical consensus. The discussion then shifts into physiology, where Cowan challenges the conventional description of the heart as a pressure-propulsion pump. He presents his theory of the heart as part of a vortex-based circulatory system and connects that concept to blood flow, pressure differentials, tissue-level physiology, and electrically charged water. Josh and Tom also explore mold, parasites, bacteria, environmental toxins, EMFs, inflammation, and the question of whether the presence of a microorganism necessarily establishes it as the root cause of illness. One of the most compelling themes throughout the conversation is critical thinking: separating observation from interpretation, correlation from causation, and established evidence from assumptions. For anyone interested in gut health, chronic illness, inflammation, the microbiome, immune system, root-cause health, functional medicine, or simply questioning how medical conclusions are reached, this episode offers a conversation designed to challenge your assumptions—and encourage you to investigate the claims for yourself.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: Viruses, Virology & Germ Theory Scientific Methodology, Claims, Causation & Critical Thinking The Heart As A Pump Vs.

Everyone thinks testosterone is bad for your heart, but with 10,000 receptors for it in the heart alone, I'd argue low testosterone is the real cardiovascular risk. In this solo Q&A, I answer the 11 questions you ask me most, from TRT and vitamin D to folate and my morning breathwork. It all comes back to one thing: you're not broken, you're deficient, and that's fixable.

You don't get extra credit for suffering.There is a difference between discomfort that should be endured and suffering that deserves treatment. In this final episode of Menopause in the Light, Coach Alex brings the entire series together by tackling some of the most confusing—and heavily marketed—parts of menopause. Hormone therapy. Testosterone. Sleep. Sexual health. Peptides. GLP-1 medications. Expensive hormone panels. “Bioidentical” treatments. Optimization culture.The goal isn't to tell every woman what treatment she needs. It's to help you become a more informed participant in your own healthcare, ask better questions, and recognize when faithful stewardship means doing the hard thing—and when it means getting help.In this episode, Coach Alex discusses:Why menopausal hormone therapy is neither the devil nor the saviorWhat current evidence says about estrogen and menopausal symptomsWhy route, dose, medical history, and individual risk matterWhy many women probably don't need expensive hormone panelsWhat “bioidentical hormones” actually meansThe limited but legitimate role of testosterone therapyWhy painful sex should not simply be accepted as part of agingSleep disruption, hot flashes, insomnia, and sleep apneaMood changes during perimenopause and menopauseWhat to know before jumping into peptide therapyGLP-1 medications and the importance of preserving muscleHow to evaluate the next supplement, hormone, device, injection, or wellness trend somebody tries to sell youWhy health data should serve your life—not become your lifeWhen it's time to stop managing symptoms alone and talk with a qualified healthcare professionalOne of the central questions of the episode is simple: What problem am I actually trying to solve?Before adding another supplement, test, medication, protocol, wearable, or optimization strategy, get clear about the problem first. And through all four episodes of Menopause in the Light, remember:Your body is changing.You are not broken.Train it.Nourish it.Get help when help is warranted.And never confuse your physical health with your worth. As Coach Alex closes the series: “Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come.”There may still be decades of serving, leading, mentoring, traveling, building, teaching, loving, training, praying, giving, and becoming ahead of you.Your Next Faithful Step--If this series helped you understand menopause better but left you wondering:“What do I personally need to work on first?”Start with the Faithful Fitness Assessment.The assessment evaluates your health and stewardship through four Faithful Fitness anchors:Integrity • Grit • Growth • AweYou'll receive a personalized report identifying strengths, gaps, and areas that may deserve your attention next.And your $7.99 assessment also includes your seat in the next live Faithful Fitness workshop with Coach Alex, where you can better understand your results, ask questions, and identify your next faithful step.Take the Faithful Fitness Assessment: https://faithfulfitness.co/assessmentBecause you probably don't need more random information.You need enough clarity about your situation to make a wise decision about what comes next.Train Hard.

Casey Stumpf is a nurse practitioner and my sister. Years in emergency medicine and hospice, a stretch inside military medicine at Camp Pendleton, and now her own practice in Montana treating hormones full time — perimenopause, menopause, testosterone for men and women. She is one of roughly 4,100 providers in the country holding the MSCP certification. There are 75 million American women in some phase of menopause. The math does not work. She is back to answer listener questions and to explain why estrogen patches are disappearing. The FDA says there is no shortage. Pharmacists say otherwise. Best estimate on a fix is two to three years. She lays out what the 2002 Women's Health Initiative did to an entire generation of women, and why the black box warning finally came off. Testosterone for women, prescribed off-label because no FDA-approved formulation exists. GLP-1s and what they pull out of you besides fat. Hormone therapy after breast cancer. Vaginal estrogen, UTIs, and hip fractures. The suicide risk in perimenopause that standard screening misses.

Let’s talk about testosterone testing and other important blood tests you can track for your overall health, wellness, vitality, and longevity. I recorded this show on the occasion of my first visit to the blood lab after signing up for Vitals Vault’s premium program, and I talk about some of my favorite markers while pedaling home from the lab. I focus a lot on testosterone because I believe it’s a great proxy for overall wellness, vitality, recovery, and resilience to stress. I share my own numbers, which have ranged from 562 to 1,004, and explain why I’m so intent on keeping testosterone levels high as I age. I also get into the roughly 1% annual decline in average male testosterone levels since the 1980s, vitamin D and the widespread fear of the sun, why looking beyond LDL can give you a better picture of your lipid panel, and the lifestyle practices that can help optimize testosterone—from sleep and diet to avoiding chronic cardio, lifting heavy things, sprinting once in a while, and even maintaining a winning relationship. TIMESTAMPS: Testosterone testing is the best proxy for your overall state of wellness, vitality, and recovery or resilience to stress. [00:51] Brad checks his testosterone level frequently because it is his way of monitoring the stress impact from his training. [5:41] Triglycerides to HDL ratio is a premier indicator of your heart disease risk factor. It is much better than looking at total LDL cholesterol. [06:42] In 2017 they lowered the ideal level of testosterone due to the widespread decline of testosterone among males around the world. [09:02] If you are not optimizing your sleep, including down and rest time, you cannot reduce your stress. [12:13] Get the junk out of your diet. If you are in that chronic cardio pattern in your exercise, you may be tanking your testosterone. [12:37] If there is arguing and other dysfunctional patterns in your relationship, it will tank your testosterone as well as shorten your lifespan. [13:34] Vitamin D comes from sun exposure more than from your diet or pills. [14:30] LINKS: Brad Kearns.com BradNutrition.com B.rad Whey Protein Superfuel - The Best Protein on The Planet!

How Long Does It Take You to Wake Up? The Cortisol Cheater Question You hit snooze six times. You need two cups of coffee before you can hold a conversation. Or the opposite: your eyes open at a level ten, heart already going, anxiety already running. There is a name for what is happening, and there is a test for it. Dr. Terri sits down with Carrie Jones, ND, FABNE, MPH, MSCP, the naturopathic physician known as the Queen of Hormones, for a conversation about the hormone testing almost nobody is ordering. Not blood. Not saliva. Urine metabolites, which show you not just how much of a hormone you have, but where it goes after your body is finished with it. Because that turns out to be the part that matters. Estrogen can travel down three different pathways, and one of them is protective while another is genotoxic. Testosterone can convert into something far more potent, which is why some women get hair loss and jawline acne on a dose that works beautifully for someone else. Progesterone can knock one woman out in ten minutes and do almost nothing for the woman next to her on an identical dose. None of that shows up on a standard panel. They also spend real time on cortisol, which has become the most misunderstood hormone on the internet. Dr. Carrie makes the case that we are doing to cortisol exactly what we did to estrogen after the Women's Health Initiative: blaming the messenger, missing the message, and reaching for supplements to suppress something the body is doing on purpose. This one is for anyone who has been told their hormones are fine, or who has tried hormone therapy and quit because of side effects nobody could explain. What you'll discover: What urine metabolite testing actually measures, and why hormones have to go somewhere (02:03) The three estrogen pathways, and which one you want to push toward (04:45) The pathway that explains breast tenderness, spotting, and estrogen sensitivity (07:58) Why testosterone causes acne and hair loss in some women and not others (09:23) Alpha versus beta: why two women on the same progesterone dose have completely different nights (11:16) Whether the route you take progesterone changes the effect (14:20) What cortisol metabolites reveal about your thyroid that a TSH will not (19:39) Free T3, reverse T3, and reference ranges that are normal but not optimal (21:39) Poor, poor cortisol: what it is actually doing for you, and why we get it backward (26:29) The everyday medications quietly suppressing your cortisol results (30:11) Serum, saliva, or urine: which cortisol test answers which question (34:57) The cortisol awakening response, and the cheater question you can answer yourself (36:24) When a urine metabolite panel is worth the money, and when it is not (40:22) Cruciferous vegetables, DIM, and the caution nobody gives you before you start (42:39) Supplements that support the DHT pathway, and why sourcing decides whether they work (47:01) Alcohol as a bully: how the liver decides what gets detoxified first (52:55) You are not stuck with the hormone you were dealt. You are working with a pathway, and pathways are modifiable. The Dr. Terri Show is presented by EVEXIAS Health Solutions. For more, visit: https://www.evexias.com Connect with Dr. Terri:

What they do, why the estrogen patch shortage is happening, and what to switch to (gels, oral options) in the meantime.Testosterone, decoded. Comparing creams versus injections, how to interpret SHBG, and why I care more about how you feel than what the lab printout says.Progesterone tolerance. What to do when the standard dose doesn't agree with you, and where extended-release formulations fit in.Persistent UTIs on vaginal estrogen. Why they still happen even when you're doing everything "right," and what else might be going on.Weight gain and menopause. What the data actually says — and what gets blamed on hormones that isn't really about hormones at all.Talking about sex — with clients, with partners. A layered, step-by-step way to open the conversation about low libido without it feeling like a confrontation.Individualized care. Why hormone management should never be one-size-fits-all, and how I think about lab testing versus symptoms.What's next. vulvar DHEA, book clubs, and more ways to keep learning together.Subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with someone who needs it.

At 31 years old, my testosterone was around 240—and I was told I was “normal.”Meanwhile, I was dealing with low energy, poor sleep, weight gain, low sex drive, and depression.Standard testosterone ranges can be misleading, That's why it's so important to get the full labs done.Stop guessing. Get your bloodwork done and know your numbers.

Over 40 and suddenly struggling to lose fat or build muscle? It must be your hormones... right?Not so fast.Jumping straight to TRT, HRT, peptides, or GLP-1s could be solving the wrong problem.Jay Campbell, author of The Testosterone Optimization Therapy Bible and co-founder of BioLongevity Labs, breaks down where hormones actually fit into fat loss, muscle building, metabolism, and longevity.We cover why testosterone boosters usually disappoint, what free versus total testosterone can tell you, common mistakes with TRT, estrogen management, and why lifestyle still matters even when using therapeutic tools.Jay also shares his perspective on strength training over 40, building muscle for longevity, cardio and visceral fat, and the rapidly evolving world of GLP-1 medications and peptides.Join Eat More Lift Heavy to build strength, lose fat, and learn what works for your body, 1 week at a time.

If you're a guy – or even just friends with a guy – and on the Internet, you may have noticed that testosterone discourse is everywhere. There's Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announcing testosterone screenings for soldiers, Joe Rogan discussing hormone therapy, and influencers discussing high- and low-T levels. Those levels affect more than just sex. They also affect metabolism, bone health, muscle mass, red blood cell production and brain function. NPR science reporter Will Stone took a deep dive into it all: What deficiency looks like in men, what doctors recommend and what the research says about who actually needs testosterone replacement therapy.Interested in hearing more reporting on popular science topics?

What if the pursuit of optimal health is actually making health more complicated than it needs to be?Dr. Jordan Feigenbaum is a physician, competitive strength athlete, coach, and co-founder of Barbell Medicine, where he works to bridge the gap between modern medicine, strength training, and evidence-based health.In this episode, Bryce sits down with Jordan for a wide-ranging conversation about one of the strangest moments in modern wellness.Peptides. Biohacking. Testosterone. GLP-1s. Protein. Pain. Strength. Recovery. Longevity. Health optimization.We have more information, testing, supplements, technology, and “hacks” than ever before…but are we actually getting healthier?Jordan challenges some of the health and fitness beliefs we've accepted as fact and explains why evidence matters, why our bodies may be more resilient than we think, and why getting stronger might still be one of the most powerful health interventions available to us.This isn't about rejecting innovation.It's about learning to separate evidence from enthusiasm.MAJOR TAKEAWAYS• Not all “peptides” are the same. Some peptide medications have strong evidence behind them, while many compounds promoted by biohacking and longevity clinics have little or no quality human evidence.• Biological plausibility isn't the same thing as proof. Something sounding like it should work doesn't mean we've demonstrated that it does.• More health data doesn't automatically create better health.• Strength training remains one of the most accessible and powerful tools we have for improving health, physical capacity, and quality of life.• Pain doesn't always mean damage, and treating the human body as fragile can change how people move, train, and see themselves.• Health shouldn't become an endless pursuit of optimization.• Before searching for the next compound, supplement, wearable, or hack, ask whether you've mastered the fundamentals.• Good science requires being willing to change your mind when better evidence arrives.QUESTIONS WE EXPLOREWhy have peptides exploded in popularity?Are compounds like BPC-157 being promoted faster than the science supports?Have longevity clinics blurred the line between medicine and marketing?When does biohacking become health anxiety?Are we overtesting hormones and testosterone?Are GLP-1 medications fundamentally different from the broader peptide craze?Does pain actually mean your body is damaged?Do we overcomplicate mobility and recovery?How important is strength for longevity?And ultimately…Have we become so obsessed with optimizing health that we've forgotten how to simply be healthy?QUOTES“Evidence and enthusiasm are not the same thing.”“Your body is probably more resilient than you've been taught to believe.”“More information doesn't always create better decisions.”“Before you optimize everything, make sure you've mastered something.”“Health should give you more freedom to live, not more things to worry about.”TIMESTAMPS00:00 – Welcome to ALLSMITH00:00 – Meet Dr. Jordan Feigenbaum00:00 – Medicine meets the barbell00:00 – Why Jordan questions conventional health advice00:00 – The explosion of peptides00:00 – BPC-157 and the evidence problem00:00 – Peptides vs. proven medications00:00 – Has biohacking gone too far?00:00 – Testosterone, hormones & optimization00:00 – GLP-1s, obesity & modern medicine00:00 – Protein myths and nutrition00:00 – Pain doesn't always mean damage00:00 – Are our bodies more resilient than we think?00:00 – Mobility, stretching & recovery00:00 – Strength training as medicine00:00 – What actually matters for longevity?00:00 – Health anxiety and wearable data00:00 – Evidence vs. wellness marketing00:00 – The fundamentals we keep ignoring00:00 – Jordan's non-negotiables for lifelong healthCONCLUSIONThe future of health will undoubtedly bring better technology, medications, diagnostics, and tools.But new doesn't automatically mean better.Jordan's work is a reminder to stay curious without becoming gullible, to question conventional wisdom without rejecting science, and to demand evidence before allowing hype to dictate how we treat our bodies.Maybe the ultimate health hack isn't another injection, supplement, wearable, or protocol.Maybe it's building a strong body, thinking critically, staying connected to people you love, and creating a life you're healthy enough to actually enjoy.JOIN ALLSMITHIf this conversation challenged something you believed, send it to someone who would enjoy wrestling with these ideas too.Subscribe to ALLSMITH on YouTube and follow the show on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.If the show brings value to your life, leaving a rating or review is one of the simplest ways you can help us continue bringing these conversations to more people.Fitness is the vessel.

You're probably treating recovery as the reward for hard work, when elite sport treats it as part of the work.Andrew May has spent more than two decades coaching in sport and business, and Andrew thinks we have misdiagnosed a generation of exhausted leaders. Call it burnout and you go looking for rest. Andrew says the shortfall is usually capacity, and the first move is measuring it rather than resting on it.Pod O'Sullivan had Andrew on Don't Let The Old Man In podcast and asked him the things he does not get asked on his own show.

Your periods are still regular and your labs may even look “normal.” So why aren't you sleeping? Why has your mood changed? And why do you suddenly feel like a different version of yourself? In this episode of the As a Woman podcast, Dr. Natalie Crawford talks with Dr. Alicia Robbins, a board-certified OB/GYN, certified Menopause Society Practitioner, and founder of The Elm. They discuss why sleep and mood can change before hot flashes or irregular periods begin, how cycle tracking may reveal patterns, and how progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone are considered in individualized perimenopause care.

The internet lost its mind. So Drew and Alex went and got one of the most knowledgeable people in the field — Dr. Jordan Feigenbaum of Barbell Medicine — to actually explain what's going on.What we get into:Are testosterone levels really dropping? The short answer is probably not in the way the internet says. The long answer involves a testing methodology problem — older immunoassay tests read artificially high compared to the more accurate mass spectrometry tests that replaced them around 2000. When you only use mass spec data across 100,000 people and 30 years, there's no decline. The real culprit, to the extent there is one, is obesity — specifically visceral adipose tissue, which BMI is terrible at detecting.The DOD testosterone testing mandate — what it actually says, what it doesn't say, and why the Army endocrinology community is about to have a very bad time. Jordan breaks down the difference between having a low lab number and actually having testosterone deficiency, why both criteria have to be met before treatment makes sense, and why testing people without symptoms is going to generate a flood of unnecessary clinical encounters.TRT — who actually benefits, what the evidence says, and what it doesn't. The difference between restoring someone who is genuinely deficient to a normal level versus using it as a performance enhancing drug. What happens to your natural production when you go on exogenous testosterone. Why fertility consequences are a real concern and not being talked about enough in the military context.Lifestyle first — sleep, obesity, alcohol, and opioids are the four biggest modifiable drivers of low testosterone, in that order. Fix those before anyone puts a needle in you. Jordan's framework for the workup and when treatment actually makes sense.The history of testosterone — it started with a French physician injecting himself with ground-up animal testicle extract in the 1800s. It ends with Drew and Alex's Fitness Aptitude Test, which Jordan correctly identifies he would lose on the five-mile run.Mentioned in this episode:Signal: What Your Testosterone Is Telling You About Your Health — Dr. Jordan Feigenbaum and Dr. Austin Baraki, Barbell MedicineTravison 2007 study — the original birth cohort testosterone decline studyBarbell Medicine — barbellmedicine.comDepartment of War testosterone testing mandate — referenced throughoutLong and Strong — the Mops and Moes training program on TrainHeroic Views expressed are those of the speakers and do not represent any official organization.

In Part 2 of Tara's conversation with Dr. Lindsey Berkson, they continue the discussion by looking at the different forms and delivery methods of HRT, including Bi-Est, estradiol, estriol and progesterone. They discuss why the way a hormone is delivered can matter, why vaginal progesterone may work differently from oral or topical progesterone, and why individual response matters when choosing a delivery method. The conversation then moves into testosterone and breast health, including the role of hormone metabolites and estrogen receptors. Dr. Berkson also shares her thoughts on mammograms and breast cancer screening, including her own experience of finding breast cancer shortly after receiving a negative mammogram. This episode ultimately comes back to one of the biggest themes of the entire conversation: don't blindly follow a protocol simply because it's considered standard. Understand the evidence, understand the limitations, and make informed decisions with appropriate medical support.   In Part 2: Why Tara switched to an estradiol patch Dr. Berkson's history developing menopause supplements Progesterone, puberty and menstrual health Why hormone education is missing from conventional medical training Why Bi-Est? Bringing estradiol and estriol back into the conversation Testosterone, muscle, brain health and breast health Why progesterone delivery needs to be individualised Oral vs vaginal vs topical progesterone How Dr. Berkson approaches mammograms, ultrasound and other screening methods The breast cancer Dr. Berkson discovered after a negative mammogram Why Dr. Berkson created Everything Breast Cancer and her personal mission to help women navigate breast cancer Dr. Lindsey Berkson Lindsey Berkson, MA, DC, CNS, DACBN was a Distinguished Hormone Scholar at the Center for Bioenvironmental Research (CBR: Tulane/Xavier Universities).

In this episode of The Council of Dudes, Vinny sits down with Nicole Frontera of The Formula Med Spa for a grounded conversation about testosterone, hormones, peptides, longevity, and what it actually means to feel better. Peptides and hormone optimization are everywhere right now, but Nicole's approach is simple: there is no one answer. Blood work, nutrition, sleep, stress, exercise, hormones, mental health, and lifestyle are all pieces of the puzzle. Vinny also puts himself under the microscope as Nicole walks through his blood work and reveals that his testosterone has dropped from 770 several years ago to 389 today. That opens up a bigger conversation about aging, stress, energy, motivation, and the mentality many men have of simply needing to push through. They get into: Testosterone and hormone optimization Peptides, GLP-1s and hormone replacement Why blood work should come first Energy, sleep, anxiety and motivation Stress, cortisol and gut health Why "normal" doesn't always mean optimal Diet, exercise and processed foods The stigma around wanting to feel better Faith, purpose and knowing yourself on a deeper level Ultimately, this episode goes beyond testosterone and peptides. Health is an ecosystem. There isn't one answer. There are pieces of the puzzle.

Do you have what it takes to be "High-T?"Service members are about to find out, as Defense secretary Pete Hegseth announced that the military will be screening men for low testosterone, a hormone found in both women and men that supports bone mass development, red blood cell production, energy levels, and more. It's an important marker of overall health in men, but will it push the United States military to the 'leading edge of lethality' as promised by Hegseth? To get into the facts and fictions around testosterone, Brittany is joined by NPR health correspondent Will Stone, and Dr. Helen Bernie, Director of Sexual and Reproductive Medicine and associate professor of urology at Indiana University.Want more on gender and health?

What if everything men are told about a prostate cancer diagnosis, biopsy first, surgery next, is built on evidence that was never actually there?In this episode of Integrative Cancer Solutions, Dr. K sits down with Dr. Stephen Petteruti, board certified family physician and author of Fight Cancer Like a Man, to break down the 2023 New England Journal of Medicine study that found no survival difference between surgery, radiation, and doing nothing at all for early stage prostate cancer. Dr. Petteruti explains why he stopped recommending biopsies, how a needle can spread the very cancer it's meant to detect, and why watching PSA and MRI trends over time is often safer than rushing into treatment. He also covers the overlooked role of testosterone in prostate cancer care, including bipolar androgen therapy, and makes the case for tracking the disease like a chronic condition instead of chasing a cure that costs a man his vitality.If you or someone you love is facing a prostate cancer diagnosis, or just navigating an elevated PSA, this conversation lays out the questions worth asking before agreeing to anything.Key Takeaways:0:00 Introduction2:33 The prostate trial that shattered the surgery-first model5:19 Why a biopsy can spread the very cancer it's meant to find8:23 Castration's hidden cost on testosterone and quality of life17:12 Tracking prostate cancer with MRI and PSA instead of biopsy21:58 Repurposed drugs and why DIY protocols backfire38:10 BAM therapy: using testosterone as a weapon against advanced cancer Schedule a Free 15-Min Cancer/Lyme Consultation at The Karlfeldt Center: 208-338-8902Resources:Fight Cancer Like a Man (book) - https://www.intellectualmedicine.com/dr-stephen-petteruti-booksIntellectual Medicine, Dr. Petteruti's practice - https://www.intellectualmedicine.com/The Prostate Protocol - https://assets.ctfassets.net/psmhuxrqomif/4iFYGN6rh0cloFTQyxdit9/a2c3e8e20e335df0ad22f70ca0e0af48/the-prostate-protocol-pdf.pdfProtecT Trial, New England Journal of Medicine, 2023 - https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2214122Johns Hopkins Bipolar Androgen Therapy Research - https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/news/articles/2023/12/bipolar-androgen-therapy-trials-under-way Medical Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace professional medical advice.

Urologist Dr. Alex Tatum on Girth Enhancement, Testosterone, and Peptide Therapy Most men will never ask their doctor the questions this episode answers. From safe, non-surgical girth enhancement to daily testosterone dosing to the peptides fighting for FDA access right now, this conversation covers what actually works, what's dangerous, and what your doctor probably won't bring up first. Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Alex Tatem, a board-certified urologist with fellowship training in male sexual and reproductive medicine. Dr. Tatem has built his practice and his YouTube following around pushing medicine beyond what the traditional medical establishment allows, with a focus on male girth enhancement, performance enhancement, peptides, and PEDs. They break down the real science behind penis enhancement, including why length surgery still does not exist, how hyaluronic acid injections safely increase girth, and why silicone and PMMA fillers have left men permanently disfigured. Dave and Dr. Tatem also get into cutting-edge testosterone dosing strategies, the peptides driving the biggest gains in human performance and longevity, including BPC-157, TB-500, SS-31, and MOTS-c, and why PT-141 has become the most talked-about peptide for libido and sexual health. You'll Learn: Why hyaluronic acid injections have become the safest, most reproducible method for girth enhancement The truth about penis enlargement surgery, and why length enhancement still has no reliable surgical fix How daily microdosed testosterone compares to traditional weekly TRT protocols Why PT-141 and melanotan II are being used for libido, nitric oxide release, and even prostate health How BPC-157, TB-500, SS-31, and MOTS-c are changing recovery, mitochondria function, and metabolism The dangerous enhancement trends to avoid, including silicone implants and unregulated fillers Why the fight over peptide access at the FDA could determine the future of functional medicine and supplements in America Thank you to our sponsors! - Just Thrive | Get a free 90-day supply of Digestive Bitters (a $90 value) when you start a 90-day Just Thrive Probiotic subscription at https://get.justthrivehealth.com/pages/asprey - KILLSwitch | If you're ready for the best sleep of your life, order now at https://www.switchsupplements.com/and use code DAVE for 20% off - PredictiveMind™ | Get your Brain Pattern Mapping report at predictivemind.io/dave and use code DAVE for 10% off. - ALP | Head to http://alppouch.com/ and use code DAVE for 20% off your first order.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered everyone over 30 in the military to have their testosterone tested. That inspired us to rerun this classic episode where everyone at This American Life tested their testosterone and compared results. It did not lead to workplace harmony.

Prologue: Host Ira Glass talks with producer Alex Blumberg, who explains that he wanted to do this show because of his conflicted relationship with his own testosterone. He tells Ira that the reasons go back to a girl in his 8th-grade homeroom. We also hear from a man who stopped producing testosterone due to a medical treatment, and found his entire personality was altered. (10 minutes)Act One: What's it like to get injected with testosterone? When Griffin Hansbury transitioned, he got massive shots of it and was surprised at the effect it had on him. (17 minutes)Act Two: The men and women on staff at This American Life decide to get their testosterone levels tested to see who has the most and least, and whether personality traits actually match hormone levels. (13 minutes)Act Three: What happens when a man suddenly loses all of his testosterone? We return to Alex Blumberg's interview from the top of the show with a man who that happened to. He says life without testosterone is life without desire. By that he doesn't mean sexual desire. He means any desire. (6 minutes)Act Four: Novelist Miriam Toews interviews her 15-year-old son, someone at an age when boys experience a jolt of ten or twenty times the testosterone they had as children, about all the things she doesn't understand about what he's going through. (11 minutes)Transcripts are available at thisamericanlife.orgThis American Life privacy policy.Learn more about sponsor message choices.
