Would you wait until you lost bodyfat to start TRT?
I'm soon to be 50. I was tested and I have low testosterone. I have all the symptoms including way too much visceral fat. I carry about 50-70 pounds too much fat. I have worked out and been disciplined over the years but generally I haven't had the best results and I typically give up.
Based on my research being obese increases the chances of side effects from TRT. My thought was do the best I can for a few months to drop as much body fat as possible before starting TRT. But as I stated , I have not had the best results and I do have many of the symptoms of low testosterone, depression, low energy, poor exercise results, etc. The diet and cardio I would do will likely drop my testosterone even further. I am wondering if I am making the right choice to wait. My doctor is not giving me a definitive answer and leaving the choice to me. Any opinions/ perspectives are appreciated.
