keep seeing posts from some really slow teenagers asking if they should hop on test or try TRT early. this post is to explain why that is a terrible idea and why it will ruin your natural development.
WHAT IS TEST / TRT
Testosterone is the main male hormone. It's already being produced in large amounts during puberty. TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) is for people with clinically low T levels, usually older men or those with medical conditions.
If you are between 12 and 20 and thinking about taking test, stop.
WHY TAKING TEST DURING PUBERTY WILL DESTROY YOU
Puberty is the time your body is fine-tuning your hormonal axis (HPTA). Adding external testosterone shuts that system down. You will:
YOU ONLY GO THROUGH PUBERTY ONCE
Your endocrine system is learning how to function. If you screw with that, there is no reset button.
You don’t get a second puberty to fix what you broke.
SIGNS YOU SHOULD ACTUALLY GET BLOODWORK
BOTTOM LINE
Taking test before your natural T has even peaked will leave you worse than before.
Your body knows what it’s doing.
Disclaimer:
This is not medical advice. I am not your doctor. I am not responsible for your decisions.
You screw up your body because you didn't want to wait 2 years,
Its not worth it brah

Puberty is the time your body is fine-tuning your hormonal axis (HPTA). Adding external testosterone shuts that system down. You will:
- Stop your own natural production
- Risk permanent shutdown of your HPTA
- Cause early closure of growth plates (you will be shorter permanently)
- Mess up brain development
- Set yourself up for a lifetime of needing TRT
- Risk gyno, acne, rage, anxiety, hair loss, infertility
YOU ONLY GO THROUGH PUBERTY ONCE
Your endocrine system is learning how to function. If you screw with that, there is no reset button.
You don’t get a second puberty to fix what you broke.
SIGNS YOU SHOULD ACTUALLY GET BLOODWORK
- No signs of puberty at all after age 14–15
- Extremely low energy, depression, no growth
- Suspected pituitary disorder
Then yes — go get labs. 8–10am, fasted. Total T, free T, LH, FSH, prolactin, SHBG. Talk to a real endo.
