Our take · Written by FormBlends editorial team · Reviewed by FormBlends Medical Team· This is not a transcript. It is our independent review of the video above.
What does this video actually claim?
The TikTok doesn't make any medical claims about testosterone replacement therapy. @callmesanjee simply shows her body at 6 months postpartum and expresses difficulty accepting her physical changes after pregnancy.
The video was miscategorized as TRT content when it's actually a personal postpartum body image post. She's not promoting any hormone treatments or making health claims. It's a short, emotional reflection on body changes after childbirth that many new mothers experience.
Why was this categorized as TRT content?
This appears to be a platform error or algorithmic misclassification. Nothing in the video or caption mentions testosterone, hormone replacement, or any medical treatments.
The content is clearly about postpartum body acceptance, not hormone optimization. The creator uses hashtags like #postpartumjourney and #newmom, which have nothing to do with testosterone therapy. This kind of miscategorization can spread misinformation about what TRT actually involves.
What do we know about postpartum body changes?
Postpartum body changes are medically well-documented and completely normal. Most women don't return to pre-pregnancy weight and body composition even years after delivery.
A 2015 study in Women's Health Issues (Siega-Riz et al.) found that 75% of women weigh more at 1 year postpartum than before pregnancy. The average retention was 1-5 pounds, but 23% of women retained 10 or more pounds. Abdominal muscle separation (diastasis recti) affects up to 60% of postpartum women according to research in Physiotherapy Canada (Mota et al., 2015).
What about actual TRT for women?
Testosterone therapy in women is primarily used for severe testosterone deficiency, not general postpartum concerns. The Endocrine Society's 2019 guidelines recommend against routine testosterone testing in healthy women.
Postpartum testosterone levels naturally fluctuate due to breastfeeding and hormonal recovery. These changes typically resolve within 6-12 months without intervention. Women considering any hormone therapy should consult healthcare providers, not rely on social media content that wasn't even about hormones to begin with.
