Description

<p>Every time a testosterone clinic pops up along the highway, third-generation chiropractor Dr. Kyle Hulsebus gets the same question from patients: "Doc, is it low testosterone?"

It closes with a personal story about a friend who appeared to have it all and died by suicide, and what that taught Dr. Kyle about chasing an objective versus chasing a fantasy.</p><p>For more podcasts, blogs, and to get involved in the Men's Therapy Online Community, visit <a href="http://www.menstherapy.online" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.menstherapy.online</a>.</p><p>Follow us on social media: <a href="https://mtr.bio/mens-therapy-online" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://mtr.bio/mens-therapy-online</a>.</p>
