If your RS pulls labs and only checks total T, the picture looks better than it is. Always pull total T, free T, and SHBG together. Otherwise you’re guessing. Section 5: Why it’s not just hormone

Because brain tissue takes longer to remodel than energy metabolism does. Testosterone supports hippocampal neurogenesis and BDNF expression, but growing new neurons is not a 30-day process.
