I am on TRT and has been for years.
I also use more test then prescribed from time to time.
My prescription is inject able, its a preference mostly but I am married to a nurse so getting shot in the butt is easy and quick.
Trt does not lead to prostrate cancer.
its been plenty of studies out there that shows its not the case.
Here is a pretty good article talking about different studies,etc.

TRT does not really cause BHP either as long as you control your hormones.
DHT makes your BHP worse and also leads to hair loss.
Certain medication that contains ephedrine will make your prostate swell too.
Your hemocrit and hemoglobing plus rbc will/can increase.
I have a phlebotomy done every 2 or 3 months and my levels are normal, even with using more test then prescribed.
Your estrogen can increase if you use too much or you are sensitive to it. So you should have blood work do monitor for this.
if it increases then you need something to block it, its a common thing.
I sleep fine on TRT and I am a big guy.
Low body fat but weighs 250+ at 6'.
My AHI is lower then 2 on an average. My biggest problem is the mask leaking.
Getting on TRT was a huge improvement.
Life is just better for me while on. Its like the days are longer and brighter.
My mood is better and I dont feel so "blue".
The cpap was also a great benefit. I bring that thing every where I go.
Its been to 3 different countries and even when I went camping
When it comes to testosterone therapy do not get your info from the news media.
99% of what you read is simply wrong. Even my hematology doc who is a cancer doc too had no problem with me using it.
So much of the assumptions about trt is just that, assumptions.
There are several new studies showing the benefits and debunking the old so called risks.
