In this episode, Dr. Geo Espinosa speaks with Shalin Shah, CEO of Marius Pharmaceuticals, about the latest advancements in testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) and the first FDA-approved oral testosterone pill, Kyzatrex. They discuss the challenges of traditional testosterone treatments, the role of SHBG and free testosterone, and how oral testosterone therapy is changing the landscape of hormone optimization.

Shalin also shares insights on the impact of testosterone on cardiovascular health, the potential of TRT in preventing muscle loss in those using GLP-1 agonists (Ozempic, Mounjaro), and the importance of strength training for hormonal balance and longevity.

Key Topics:

• How oral testosterone therapy works and why previous versions failed

• The role of SHBG, free testosterone, and hormone optimization

• TRT vs. injections vs. gels—what’s most effective?

• Testosterone’s link to cardiovascular health and FDA concerns

• The connection between GLP-1 medications and muscle loss
