"You are missing the point. Someone who is considered quite healthy might have a testosterone level of 450, cheat, and boost it to 550+ and still be considered normal. You've just allowed someone to boost testosterone by 25%. You're sending the wrong message, and putting clean fighters at a disadvantage. If clean fighters didn't have to sacrifice their nuts I would suggest everyone use it. "

"Suppose you have a pair of 30 year old twin mma fighters: Twin A - Perfectly healthy. Produces ~450ng/dl test: considered perfectly normal. Does not require TRT. Twin B - Destroyed his nuts with previous steroid abuse, receives exemption for TRT, averages 600 ng/dl testosterone. Still considered normal range. Outcome? Twin B has been rewarded with almost 50% more testosterone than A thanks to his previous abuse of steroids. If Twin A wants to even the playing field, he'll have to sacrifice his nuts and get on TRT. Sends a great message."

"@Michael: My sell you a bridge comment was not directly aimed at you, don't get your undies in a bunch. Yes, the average 'suggested' free testosterone level can be 550, but you can test, for example, 650 (same 'suggested' amount as someone far younger than you) and you're still in the 'normal range'. Those numbers are guidelines. You can boost your testosterone by hundreds of ng/dl if you are naturally on the low end, and still pass for normal. Come on you're a doctor, you should know this stuff. Look, the UFC allowed Vitor Belfort to fight in Brazil so he can juice up. This has people riled because it's tainting the sport. If legitimate testing was financially and logistically possible, as well as infallable. TRT would have a place in MMA. As of now TRT should be banned. "

"Keep in mind Keith Pfizer won't even allow Vitor to fight. TRT is a legitimate treatment, but Vitor is clearly abusing it. If you believe Vitor's denial, my good friend I have a bridge to sell you."

""Normal Testosterone" is a very loose term. Men's testosterone levels vary widely. According to my endocronologist a normal testosterone score is between 250-850 ng/dl. Food for thought."
