Wow, Lotus, you have added a whole new dimension to the aggregated research here. You always impress.

It sounds like a two-fold approach to this recent databomb might be in order:

1. Tuck 'n tens
2. Green tea, licorice and/or leptin (the new kid in town).

So two questions occur to me:

Does anyone have a recommendation for a tens and how to use it in this process?
What is your recommendation for leptin (dosage, regimen and source, etc.)?

I bought my tens on Amazon for 25 bucks. If i am correct in the assumption of placement, you push the testes up inside as far as they can go ( some people cannot find the inguinal canal, located more to the surface of the skin in pubic mound closer to the crease between upper thigh and torso in groin area. Some people report closed/ sealed i-canals). Once tucked up inside, place your pads from tens unit flush to skin, if not firmly adhered you get a nasty shock. Thats why i always start on lowest setting to test conductivity. I also set mine on massage or knead...feels like someone kneading that area. I push the setting all the way up to level ten, the highest it can go. There is no pain. My unit has a 15 minute cycle with adjustible speeds and settings.. sometimes i use the pulse setting.

In regards to the green tea, not sure how factual that link is i posted previously about green tea/ lecithin reducing T, but something perhaps lotus can clarify. Not sure if genistein is better/worse/ or just as effective as lecithin. Both are derived from mostly soy, sometimes other sources.
