Now person with diabetes/prediabetes typically do have problems with hormones- leptin resistance (which leads to obesity and other issues), and typically they have a low SHBG which means lot of aromatisation and low tot. testosterone etc...
Very often low testosterone is result of problem elswhere and fixing problem elswhere may fix low test problem, on other hand adding testosterone may not neccessary fix problem, lets say driver feels there is some problem with car- naturally he will slow down and drive slowly to minimise damage- body does the same thing when something is wrong, it basically slows to slow down damage and to increase lifespan-
And again there may be other deficiencies that are better dealt with before TRT,
