Publisher's summary

Testosterone is a sex hormone. It makes a man a man and gives both men and women their sex drive. Over the past few years, however, the increased hype around testosterone and the treatment commonly known as “Low T” has wreaked havoc, with many patients who didn’t know what they were getting into.

More and more physicians are prescribing testosterone to their patients with the intention of giving them back their zest for life. As a result, a new addiction has emerged: addiction to testosterone. My book sheds light on this emerging epidemic. It comes from my personal experience with using testosterone, and also from people who have fallen prey to the pellet pushers and those who are selling testosterone.

Some have said that I am brave to share my story. Some are in awe of the time and money I have spent researching, creating websites and anonymous surveys, and the countless hours I have invested talking with families who have been destroyed by testosterone.

Yet there is hope for recovery, and I will show you how to do that through my own recovery journey, and those who have - or are - recovering. Their stories tell how testosterone replacement therapy hijacked their minds, bodies, and brains, and in some cases created a destructive path like mine, which, I admit, “had me at the brink of suicide”. Finally, I share how I pulled myself out of the darkest years of my life, reclaimed my sense of self, and became whole, by the grace of God. I had to free myself from testosterone addiction.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

TRT Low-T scam

I love the fact that Big Pharma’s billion dollar Low-T scam is finally being exposed. All the TRT prescribers need to be held accountable and prosecuted as well as all the pharmaceutical companies involved

This read at times like a page out of my life.


I’m so thankful for this book. Finally I get the confirmation I’m not crazy and testosterone therapy CAN cause roid rage, suicidal tendencies, major personality changes and can take a husband who adored and protected you into arrogant, roving , verbally abusive stranger you think has possibly vbfd

Redundantly Painful

At the end I was screaming, how many doctors and workshops do you need to attend to figure things out.

Great listen!

If you are thinking about starting testosterone replacement therapy, heard someone mention it or have been told by a doctor you have low T, read this book before you do anything. The author has done a lot of research here and you will benefit greatly from it. After listening to this, I believe that testosterone replacement therapy is fool’s gold that is oversold to the public at incredible profits to drug companies and docs. Side affects can be devastating. No thanks!

Most things just simply not true.

Or very negatively exaggerated. If you think that you need testosterone then please do more research than this book. This book can do you a terrible injustice. It’s obvious that this author for some reason is in a war with hormone therapy and is very biased. Yet she was able to do a triathlon on it lol.
