Drugs that disrupt one's endogenous hormonal systems are restricted for good reason. That it's become normalised for people to take them for a variety of dubious cultural reasons, rather than genuine medical reasons, isn't a good case for loosening these restrictions.

Hormones can definitely come with a host of side effects and must be treated with respect, but it seems like our medical community has no problem handing out hormones for some reasons (birth control, acne), but male TRT is highly regulated. I blame the major league baseball steroid scandal and an undue legislative focus on fairness in sports.

What "dubious cultural reasons" are normalized? I'm curious.

  OP is talking about dude-bros taking steroids so they can pump and dump women.

In my book, "I feel like shit because my body produces the wrong hormones" is a genuine medical reason.
