Timeline
Video Summary
This mailbag discussion focuses on questions about anxiety reported during testosterone therapy.

Anxiety is framed as a multifactorial experience requiring context.
A central portion discusses how labs, dosing stability, and symptom timing should be reviewed together before attributing anxiety to therapy. The episode emphasizes avoiding reflexive dose changes. Contextual interpretation is highlighted to guide decisions.
The closing segment reinforces testosterone therapy as long-term clinical care. Ongoing monitoring, proportional interpretation, and expectation alignment are emphasized. Hormone therapy is positioned as benefiting from careful evaluation rather than assumption-driven changes.
