Bad idea: If you do not have true hypogonadism (low testosterone), taking testosterone will make your body become dependent on it. Your own testicles will shut down. Tamoxifen is of no benefit in a male unless being used to treat a specific disorder (gynecomastia), despite what you might read on the internet.
