Lamont needed the testosterone because he had a"substantial testosterone insuffiency

"substantial testosterone insufficiency"

This is one of the side effects of long term testosterone abuse, the body stops producing it.

This is actually true. If i remember correctly the body produces testosterone from the balls, thyroid and there is also what's called "free" testosterone. Iv'e also read that taking exogenous T (external from the body) for low T conditions or for performance enhancing ultimately reduces the body's ability to produce endogenous (basically from within) T.

One of my friends at my gym had the same problem. Testosterone deficiency is not that uncommon. As a matter of fact, he's been tested several times and there has never been a problem.

Maybe he never took a lot of artificial testosterone hence there was no problem?

I'm not an expert in this stuff either but I was gonna say something similar along these lines. First, when I go take a piss test they ask me if I'm on any meds and if I am of course I gotta show proof. Second, let's say he did take some stuff for insuffiency but he popped. Doesn't that mean he took more than recommended?

So to me, either way you look at this, it spells bull****.

I was just going to say that, when they test you they ask you to list all the meds or supplements you have taken in the last 24 hrs, 48 hrs, week and the last month. They even ask you if you had poppy seed.

If you know that they are doing a stricter test for exactly for the medication that you are already taking why not let them know ahead of time.

Having to take meds by obligation it is so intrusive in daily have I don't see how could he forget

Ok. So let's accept this scenario worst case. He still broke the rules by not informing the commission about the **** he was taking. Regardless he should not be granted a license.

Lamont and his team are trying to save face, but they are so very obviously full of ****!!!!!

Damn L. Peterson this isn't the way to represent for the city. WTF! I am not saying I am buying the story team Peterson is selling but there are plenty of men with low testosterone levels that haven't taken roids. Its hard to believe it in Peterson's case though, that its just low levels and not a roid thing considering the landscape in sports now.

What he said. I'm not buying. At all.

[Biolink]

Lame ass excuse.

[Xyei]

If that were the case then why wasn't he candid about it from the beginning? Especially since he asked for additional testing. What a cluster fuck this has turned out to be.

[gingeralbino]

Well thats if they dont get a Dr who would actually signed that off, But this excuse is a slap in the face of normal people...Now i think he deserves a ban.

Dr Shaw High to the rescue
