If I was in my 50's and feeling terrible, I would give it a try. But in my 30's or 40s...too risky. But everyone has the freedom to do as they choose.
definitely, everyone is different... someone thats 30 might have lower than optimal levels of certain hormones than another man that is 60 or vice versa, it all depends on the person

listen to your body... if you're feeling depressed, tired / exhausted, finding it difficult to concentrate, harder to lose weight, harder to get a better nights sleep, a lower than optimal sex drive, etc... you might want to have a closer look at your bodies endocrine system

testosterone, growth hormone, estrogen, etc... those are all hormones that are FOUND in the human body. taking any of these BIO-IDENTICAL hormones at measured amounts to keep your bodies hormone balance at optimal (not steroidal/abusive) levels is the key

ie 1 glass of wine a day vs a whole bottle

if the human reference range for testosterone is 400 - 1000, would you rather be at 450... weak, fat & miserable or at 950 & feel awesome? just because you're in range doesn't mean you're OK

like i said before, if you feel 100% fine then don't touch it... for others that don't - its a quality of life thing
