Every man on testosterone (or steroids) sees an increase in red blood cells. For some men it may not be significant, but for others it is potentially dangerous - androgen induced erythrocytosis leading to secondary polycythemia. This case study presents a more dramatic case, but the lessons learned apply to all men on androgens. The diagnosis and management shows how physicians should evaluate patients on TRT and androgens, and this man’s unique circumstances are examples of genetic and lifestyle factors to watch out for.

As the Anabolic Doc, since 2003, I’ve provided men who are using or have used anabolic steroids a confidential, ethical and professional medical venue to discuss their use. I do NOT in any way support the use of any performance enhancing drugs - PEDs, anabolic steroid or other medicine for muscle building or body transformation. The “off-label” use of PEDs, as such agents is considered illicit and may lead to adverse health outcomes. Please consult an expert health professional regarding any medical agent and do NOT use any medicine without the explicit advice and supervision of an appropriate medical expert.
This video is for education and information only. This is not medical advice. Only take medications as prescribed by your doctor. Do not take illegal substances. Taking steroids can lead to serious health consequences.
