Summary

In the second part to our Testosterone and Hormones series, Coach Kyle and Dr. K discuss testosterone and hormone optimization. They cover topics such as alternatives to direct testosterone replacement, maintaining fertility while on testosterone, the use of DHEA, the effects of detox on hormone levels, and the impact of soy on estrogen levels. They also share personal experiences and insights from their own journeys with hormone optimization.

Takeaways

• Maintaining fertility while on testosterone replacement therapy is possible with the use of gonadorelin or HCG injections.
• Enclomiphene is a pill that can be used to increase testosterone levels and is a good option for those who prefer not to do injections.
• DHEA supplementation can help optimize hormone levels, especially in women.
• Detoxing can improve hormone balance by removing toxins that disrupt estrogen levels.
• Soy can have both estrogenic and anti-estrogenic effects, so it's important to choose organic, glyphosate-free sources.
