Am I the only one who doesn't care about testosterone?

I had all those discussions with my wife prior to surgery. We agreed no big deal. I wonder still if I make to much of the low testosterone. But I have always been very active. I have lifted weights most of my life to develop muscle. I have never had erection problems. I also still have a desire for a female touch. I never had problems so I didnt check for testosterone prior to surgery. About 2 years after surgery with ED issues, I asked my PA if I should check my testosterone. I was also feeling just worn out. Mentally and physically. It came back at 490. I have been on a supplemental cream for the last year. My test runs about 700. I have much more stamina, my weight lifting has improved, I very much have a sexual desire, and just overall better feeling. I still have ED problems but have not had sex in the last four years. At 72 i feel good with a positive attitude. Just waiting to see whats next.

When testosterone comes back, so could the cancer as it feeds on testosterone. We’re caught between a rock and a hard place

Aside from sexual dysfunction, low testosterone also leads to side effects like bone-density loss, increased risk of heart attack, muscle weakness, hot flushes, weight gain/diabetes, and fatigue. So it makes sense that people would prefer to be at normal testosterone levels, even if they weren't interested in sex.

However, I'd far rather be alive and risk all those side effects. There have been many posts here on mitigating them (people have reported doing light resistance training to maintain muscle and bone density, increasing *moderate* cardio exercise like long walks, eating a healthy, balanced diet, among other approaches).

Ah. So it's related to energy level in general. In that case, do give me just a little.

But to be honest, my lack of sexual testosterone (from 3 years of Lupron) has been liberating. I was way too horny for about half a century or so.

Before going on hormone treatment, Dr mentioned loss of libido, wife and I looked at each other and laughed, no Dr, that will not be a problem. My testosterone comes in at < 3. My only thing is the fatigue, my favorite subject. No way would I trade off the fatigue for more testosterone. If this is how it's going to be, it's been 17 months, than so be it, at least I'm alive. Postings like this and Northoftheboarder is going to have to dig up the song lyrics he posted before, I still laugh when I think about them. Best to all.

Fatigue/ exhaustion from doing practically nothing are my daily nuisances- your so correct.

There is a time and place for everything. Sex was great but when I could no longer have a sufficiently hard erection for sex that was it. Neither Viagra nor Cialis for me. The love in my marriage of 46 years has changed from passionate young love to a deep and abiding friendship love.

Even before going on Eligard and Erleada I was happy that the "Tyranny of the Testicles" had ended. R.I.P. I wonder what price humankind pays for the "Tyranny of the Testicles" but it is part of Nature's plan since biologically we are only alive to propagate the species.

or a rock and a soft place?

Testosterone isn’t for just libido.
It’s for fighting Osteoporosis, building muscle tissue, controlling mood swings , controlling hot flashes etc.
I want the side effects to go away so I want my testosterone to come back even if it’s a tad low. Takes time and exercise will help.
