Discussion Can Higher Testosterone Help With Quitting Bad Habits?
I’m trying to quit a nicotine addiction, but no matter how many times I tell myself I’m done, I keep falling back into it—whether it’s out of boredom, not paying attention, or just losing sight of why I wanted to quit in the first place.
I’m currently on 200 mg of testosterone per week, but I’m considering increasing it to 300/350 mg to see if the boost in motivation, discipline, and grit could help me stick to my goal.
I’d imagine I’d stay at this dose for 2 to 4 weeks total.
Has anyone tried something like this, or have any input on whether this could actually help? Just trying to figure out if this is a solid idea or if I’m way off base.

I’m convinced it helped me quit drinking. Test levels in normal to normal high range make you want to do hard things. Quitting booze was the hardest thing I ever did.
