“[H]ow useful is it to screen military personnel for low testosterone? Well, it might be useful to identify men who have had damaged testicles or who have hypogonadism (when the body produces little or no testosterone) but those cases are rare. But what will happen when you do test America’s servicepeople for ‘Low -T?’ Well, you will find that some of them ‘have it’ as identified. But if it’s not causing symptoms does this arbitrary ‘testosterone level’ really matter? For the answer to that you have to dig a bit into the weeds.” (08/12/26)
