App INSIDER: The Top 5 Reasons Triathletes Get Fat

In this episode with Dr. Cameron Sepah, you'll get to dive into critical topics like the alarming drop in testosterone and sperm counts, the dangers of endocrine-disrupting chemicals, and why testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) could harm fertility. You'll explore the difference between primary and secondary hypogonadism, alternative therapies like Clomid or enclomiphene that boost natural testosterone production, and the challenges of maintaining fertility during TRT. You'll also hear about the risks of high estrogen levels, the impact of testosterone on libido, the importance of personalized dosing, and cutting-edge innovations like at-home devices that measure key hormones with clinical accuracy.

Dr. Cameron Sepah is the CEO of Maximus, an online medical clinic specializing in health and hormone optimization, backed by top venture capitalists including Founders Fund, 8VC, and angel investors such as Dave Asprey of Bulletproof, Ryan Holiday of the Daily Stoic, and the executives behind The Honest Company, Coinbase, Tinder, and Shopify.

Cameron is a serial health tech entrepreneur, as a founding team member of Omada Health, a billion-dollar startup that pioneered the field of digital therapeutics. He is a licensed clinical psychologist by training, specializing in behavioral medicine, and a clinical professor of psychiatry, where he trains doctors in evidence-based health care.
