TRT not popular in India?

2020-10-27 09:43:24
I have questions on TRT therapy. There is more and more usage of TRT in developed world wherein the original testosterone from male body is "getting replaced" by filling new synthetic Testosterone through injections. I do not see TRT very common approach in India as compared to the Western world. Eg Our doctors are happy with 600 level of testosterone whereas doctors in developed world target testosterone levels of 900-1100. Is India too cautious about TRT? Any reason please?

No normal testosterone level is 300-800 and any where between this range is normal and does not require treatment. It’s same world over.
