Miracle Drug?

Have you seen all these commercials on TV lately- testosterone cream that will help with symptoms of fatigue, depression and low sex drive? Wow! Sounds like a hep patient's dream medicine. I was going to call my doctor and ask for a sample, thinking- gee, all that AND maybe I'd even grow some muscle back and a little chest and facial hair to make up for what I've lost on top.

But what about the side effects? Would I start checking out other girls, or worse, have uncontrollable urges to watch football?

It might be worth it....

A great weekend to you all!

Actually, testosterone is being used successfully with patients undergoing treatments that frequently cause them to lose a lot of muscle mass. This plus testosterone is used sometimes to augment anti-depression therapy ... Sounds like a winner!

Oops! Can you imagine what a testosterone enhanced Riba Rage might be like?

I don't know the negative side-effects of T use for women, but men risk testicular shrinkage and possible permanent reduction of the body's ability to produce T on its own.

So, sounds good, but maybe not for everyone.

Hahahahahaha   I'd be REAL careful about using testosterone cream if I were you. I'm not so sure the "South Lawn" would take kindly to that stuff. I figure that the "Lawn" would soon be overgrown. Then the Government would move in and declare it a "Wetland". That would prevent any activity there at all....which would kind of defeat the whole purpose of increasing the sex drive.
Hair on your chest is just plain scarey. It's hard enough for we guys to deal with but to put hair on a womans chest just doesn't work. I'm sure it would get all tangled up in all those bras and harnesses you all wear. That would have to hurt. And I'm not sure if I'd want to touch it or comb it!
Hair on a girls face wouldn't work either. I don't think I'd want to lock lips woth a gal who had a bigger moustache than I do. We could get all tangled up and stuck together.
Then there's the problem with attitude. Would you really want to find yourself Arm Wrestling the guys for the remote? And if you managed to win would you really want to watch old Arnold Schwartzenegger movies and sports? Or worse yet....The Man Show reruns?
I think you'd be better off staying away from that stuff and just sticking with short work-outs and "Chick-Flicks" for muscle and mental improvements.

Finally some humor. Been off the board for a week since I got teeth pulled. "Reminder" We don't heal very fast on tx, duh. Have to say it is nice to see that we all haven't lost our senses on this stuff.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! Eat some turkey for me. I'm still on liquids and soup! X-mas will be better!
