[|Human|] I am 55 years old and have been on testosterone supplementation (currently 15 pellets every 90 days) for 5 to 6 years due to low levels of free testosterone. (75-125) Over the last 30-60 days I have been experiencing joint pain in both shoulders and knees. It has now gotten to where I lift my arms above my head and experience sharp pain in my shoulders. From an exercise stand point, nothing has changed. If anything it has reduced due to pain level. Seems unusual it appears in both shoulders and to a less extent my knees without having any type of injury. Wondered if there was any relationship in the way of a side effect? Thank you for your time.
[|AI|]  Hi, Thank you for providing the brief history of you. As you mentioned you are on testosterone supplements and now facing pain in shoulder and knees, also you doubt is it because of testosterone than I will advise you to stop it for a week with the guidance of a physician and see if there are any changes in the pain levels, if the pain lowers than you will get your answer, but if not, then the shoulder and knee has to be assessed by orthopedic special tests, may be an x-ray or MRI will be recommended so to see the position of the soft tissue, if all well, only a few medications will help you ease of the pain.
