Actually the post is about how testosterone doesn't seem to work ..
for some reason .. even THOUGH there seems to BE a connection of low
testosterone TO .. flaccidity.
Does DDT show a low testosterone NOT amendable to testosterone
repletion .. ?
How about Paraquat, Agent Orange.. ?
Iron causes low testosterone which IS .. amendable by iron depletion .
Who loves ya.
