Convincing men at basically peak testosterone production to permanently impair their natural ability to produce it. It's awful. Not to mention the side effects of taking exogenous hormones e.g. damage to your liver...

I see a study suggesting that, in hypogonadal men (important), TTh or TRT seems to improve their liver.

This seems to be contradicting your claim: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8451678/

Did you read the study? Or even the first line of the abstract? “Hypogonadal men with hepatic steatosis” is literally in the first sentence.

It’s a study on men with low testosterone and fatty liver disease. They already have damaged livers.

If the presence of testosterone can improve the function of damaged liver, there's no reason to think that a healthy liver would get damaged by it. I can't even think of any mechanism that would be involved.

Peak? We're talking about 30 year olds.

For some it's not really convincing. They look at it like doctor perscribed steroids.
