Summary

EP522. In this episode, I speak with my husband, a board-certified urologist, to unpack the growing trend of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) being promoted to young men. We discuss what TRT is, when it’s medically appropriate, and the potential risks of using it without a clinical need. This discussion came about after I came across a Scary Mommy post about the concerns parents are having because big podcasters like Dax Shepherd & Joe Rogan are open about their TRT. We also discuss what parents should be aware of when it comes to their teens and young adult children. Whether your son has mentioned “low T” or you're simply curious about the impact of this trend, this episode offers expert insight and practical advice to help you stay informed and proactive.
