I don't mind being downvoted at all, and have never complained about it (and didn't here). I was just curious why. I think you're right that people perceived a "sleazy" vibe. The sibling referred to "manosphere" and "advertising". I wonder whether that reaction would have been different if the topic had been different. I.e. to what extent the reaction was due to the wording vs the subject matter. I think tesosterone treatment itself is seen as somehow sleazy, and I referred to that as a "stigma". I speculate that that perception has something to do with the fact that in 4 years I was never checked for an obvious potential cause to my symptoms. That experience is one reason I've chosen to be quite open about this treatment. I'd probably never have found it if it hadn't been for people I know talking about it. I'm not sure it is a "low possibility", BTW. The prevalence and causes of hypogonadism aren't very well understood but it is common and may be rather more common since COVID. There are valid concerns about over-diagnosis, but under-diagnosis of this condition also carries risks.
