We cover:

• High Hematocrit & Thick Blood on TRT: Why testosterone shuts off your body's governor on red blood cell production, why dehydration skews the reading, and why donating blood twice a year is the single best fix

• Insulin Resistance & Slow Fat Loss in Women: Why cardio is making it worse, why 40 grams of protein right when you wake up matters, and why walking 10 minutes after every meal may do more than any peptide

• Peptide Dosing Math Explained Simply: A live walkthrough of how to calculate exact milligrams per unit for GHK-CU, KPV, MOTS-C, C-Max, and "R" so nothing gets wasted

• Navigating Social Media Censorship as a Peptide Educator: Why JD's YouTube got pulled for a 10-minute fasting post, why algorithms are replacing human judgment, and why School and owned platforms are the only safe play

• Going Down on "R" After Reaching Goal Weight: Why 5 migs every two weeks makes no sense given the half-life, why 2-3x weekly dosing works better, and when to swap Tesamorelin for 2 IU of HGH

• Low HDL on TRT — What Actually Helps: Why niacin has been proven not to work, why aromatase inhibitors make it worse, and why mono-unsaturated fats and fasting are the real levers

• Hair Loss, DHT, Finasteride & Dutasteride: Why you're going to lose your hair if your family did regardless, why DHT blockers tank libido and mood, and Will's strategy of microdosing for 3 days to reset without the side effects

• Plastic vs. Glass Bacteriostatic Water Vials: Why benzyl alcohol pulls microplastics from plastic vials over time and why glass is the cleaner long-term choice

• 32-Year-Old Female with PCOS & ACL Tear: Why Tesamorelin-Ipa blend is the right starting point, why "R" at 500 mcg is virtually nothing, and why protein immediately after waking is non-negotiable
