Whoa, it's not HRT, it's TRT. Completely different. HRT is for people with gender dysphoria, whereas TRT is for normal, well-adjusted, no-dysphoric men to maintain healthy testosterone levels (or as high as they can convince their PCP, or more likely, a telemedicine mill, to prescribe), regardless of how healthy they eat, how much alcohol they drink, and how consistent they are with exercise and sleep.

Totally not the same thing.

I think you are the one confused. "HRT is for people with gender dysphoria". Nope. Its for all different types of people with all different types of conditions. Lacking testosterone being one of them. TRT is a form of HRT treatment. Im not sure why you stood to correct me and bring up gender dysphoria when it is not even the most common form of HRT.

"whereas TRT is for normal, well-adjusted, no-dysphoric men to maintain healthy testosterone levels". Not sure why you are so persistent on alluding to gender. These discussions have nothing to do with gender dsyphoria.
