Well there's a major difference between TRT and anabolic steroids. Everyone knows the latter is no bueno (for longevity and overall health). The verdict doesn't seem quite so resolved yet on TRT. Literally everything in the world has side effects, though. The men on TRT are likely OK with those (at least until they encounter them...then we'll see what happens a few generations in.)
Also this study means nothing to me. They're looking at a few overall risk factors. There are potentially thousands of factors to consider, all interrelated and deeply codependent. Such is human biology.
Science at large still doesn't truly know how hormones work and interact in their totality within the human body.
Meanwhile, many cardiologists and doctors still buy into the saturated fat myth and myopic "all cholesterol is bad and will lead to heart problems" myth perpetuated by the sugar industry decades ago. So I'm not taking anyone's word yet on any of this.
Ironically, bodybuilders tend to be an amazing source of bleeding edge anecdata on all of this stuff.
