You did nothing wrong. Your endocrine system changed for some reason, which is something entirely out of your control.&amp;nbsp; There are answers if you know where to look.&amp;nbsp; Our guest in this episode, Saad Alam, wants you to know that you can feel like your old self again through his unique approach to hormone therapy. Saad experienced low testosterone firsthand and shared his personal story during this interview with our host Wade Lightheart.&amp;nbsp; Saad knows what it\u2019s like to \u201cfeel sad all the time\u201d and not understand why. He knows what it\u2019s like to lose your sex drive, causing relationship issues.&amp;nbsp; He\u2019s been there and done that. And came out on the other side happier and more energized about life than ever before.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Once he figured this out through a long and difficult journey, Saad decided to channel his entrepreneurial spirit into starting the Hone Health business, dedicated to offering dignified hormone therapies to men.&amp;nbsp; Saad understands the \u201cseedy\u201d vibe surrounding men\u2019s hormone therapy. He knows that too much shady marketing, quackery, and cookie-cutter approaches tainted the male hormone therapy industry. This is why Saad dedicated his business to providing a comfortable, respectful service for men struggling with hormone challenges. Saad helps men by educating them on male hormone issues as well as providing therapies. Through education, you can find clarity on your condition and make better decisions about your needs.&amp;nbsp; If you are feeling \u201coff\u201d these days, listen in as Wade and Saad go on a deep dive into the world of testosterone replacement therapy.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; In this podcast, we cover:  Saad\u2019s journey from rugged athlete to ZERO energy and libido, then back to restored manhood How steroid scandals in professional sports confused men\u2019s perceptions about testosterone Other hormone therapies for men apart from testosterone&amp;nbsp; How to navigate through the adjustment phases while receiving testosterone therapy How Saad has streamlined the hormone process, so you don\u2019t spend too much time and money&amp;nbsp; Why men need to be careful who they get medical info from and avoid the \u201cbro science\u201d on social media Why men should monitor their hormone numbers regularly  &amp;nbsp; Why you need more than just a test result - finding out your hormone numbers is only the beginning. These days, a guy can go to a service like Lab Corp. and get their hormone levels lined out. That\u2019s fine. But what are you going to do with that information? Unless you\u2019re a medical professional, we don\u2019t advise you to try to figure it out through a Google search.&amp;nbsp; As a man with hormone issues, you are likely to be dealing with some psychological issues. Saad says, \u201cThe psychological problems that result from all the changes are worse than the physical changes alone. Because all of a sudden, you are questioning yourself and your identity as a man. So much of a man\u2019s identity is wrapped up in providing for their family, taking care of aging parents, caring for children, being a role model for a younger sibling, building a business. All these things can hit you at once. You can get into a negative feedback loop where you question yourself over and over. Frankly, it messes with you. As guys, we are bad at admitting something is wrong.\u201d&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Saad says he sees too many men who go five, ten, or fifteen years keeping their struggles to themselves until things get so bad they have to talk.&amp;nbsp; If you think it\u2019s okay, this is what happens to men when you get to be 35 or 40 years old. Stop right there! No - it doesn\u2019t have to be like that at all.&amp;nbsp; Saad says, \u201cI\u2019m blessed that so many of the people I get to see daily are ages 60, 70, or 80 years old, and they look like they\u2019re 30 to 45 years old. So much of this is a mindset. They think they\u2019re young, and they take care of themselves.\u201d&amp;nbsp; What was the trigger point for Saad when he knew something was wrong? At one point, Wade asks Saad what brought him to the point where he acknowledged there was something wrong, and he needed help?&amp;nbsp; Saad said, \u201cI\u2019ve been very fortunate that I can juggle a lot of things all at once in my life. I\u2019ve always gone home to see my family every other weekend, regardless of where I lived. And there came the point where I couldn\u2019t. I remember it was clearly in the back of my mind - something is off. But I can\u2019t figure out what is going on. But I couldn\u2019t figure out how all the concepts connected. I couldn\u2019t apply this idea to other subject matters, even though I knew applying this idea would make those other areas juicier.\u201d \u201cThen, on top of that, I was supposed to go see my family that weekend. And I remember I was planning to take my girl out to dinner, and I told her I couldn\u2019t do it because I don\u2019t have enough energy.\u201d \u201cAll of a sudden, I thought, I\u2019m that guy - something is wrong.\u201d&amp;nbsp; \u201cI love reading, and one day I was reading something really valuable, something that excited me. But I couldn\u2019t grasp it. I couldn\u2019t put the pieces together. I knew the idea was brilliant. It was giving me a rush through my entire body.\u201d \u201cI knew I was sleeping well. So that wasn\u2019t the problem. At that point, I knew I needed to go figure it out. It was emotionally tough. When my first doctor told me nothing was wrong, and it was all in my head, it was devastating because he was a guy I trusted.\u201d Saad saw 11 specialists in 6 months before he began finding answers.&amp;nbsp; Now, he wants to help you find answers to your male hormone issues. &amp;nbsp; There is much more to this conversation you don\u2019t want to miss.
