58 yo on TRT and trying to get optimally fit and healthy and increase longevity and 'healthspan.'

Medical doctor is my main gig, so I get a lot of the science of health, hormones, aging and supplements but having said that there are many mysteries of how our bodies work and I am trying hard to figure out how to optimize myself and have a lot to learn.
