About this listen
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is one of the most effective ways to combat low testosterone levels, but it's vital that you understand the risks associated with the treatment. As with any form of hormone replacement therapy, there are a few downsides to receiving regular injections of testosterone. One of the main TRT side effects is increased hematocrit. This article will explain why this happens, the potential long-term health consequences, and how to prevent or manage this issue.
Since abnormally high hematocrit values can pose serious health problems, this article will analyze the correlation between testosterone therapy and high hematocrit. TRT, sleep apnea, and smoking are contributing factors that can cause high hematocrit that can increase cardiovascular risks if not properly managed. This podcast explains the basics of how to manage high hematocrit while using testosterone therapy.
