Not quite sure: of the question. First, not sure why TRT. It raises crit, but doesn't go above normal values (much). There are several risks of testosterone. The one that doesn't get much press is it encourages atherosclerosis. The key point on muscle in middle age is the stimulus to increase it is quite high, BUT the muscle breakdown is also high. antiinflammatories probl help; have their own risks.
