The Low Testosterone Crisis (Pt. 1)

Welcome to the podcast with Dr. Brendan McCarthy! In this episode we go over, why are testosterone levels decreasing? and what can we do moving forward? This is part 1 of a 3 part series.

Dr. Brendan McCarthy founded Protea Medical Center in 2002. While he’s been the chief medical officer, Protea has grown and evolved into a dynamic medical center serving the Valley and Central Arizona. A nationally recognized as an expert in hormone replacement therapy, Dr McCarthy s the only instructor in the nation who teaches BioHRT on live patients.
