Guest guest Posted May 1, 2006 Report Share Posted May 1, 2006 Dear - I have not heard that there are health risks specific to having male (testosterone) hormone and not growth hormone. I have only heard that there are risks to not having either if either is in low levels when tested, or clinically in low manifestation. Best I recall, a lack of growth hormone can also affect bone density, heart and dental health. As far as the emotional effects of the testosterone injections: I can attest that the " testy " surge post injection starts to even out after subsequent injections and the body acclimates itself to the increased presence of the hormone. We all " laid low " the week following the injection the first few months ) I wish I could be of more help. Please keep me updated, as my knowledge is limited to our experience thus far.
