Was curuois on getting some input on whether members on UG think men’s low T clinic would be a better option for TRT than say a urologist or general practitioner? if so why
i tried to get a script from my GP after some stupid long cycles my levels only got back into the 300’s and I felt horrible, I was 22. He said no because I was in range even though I had all the symptoms of low t. I am not a doctor or expert but personally I do not think test levels in the low 300’s are acceptable for a fit 22 year old male . so I do self TRT now but have began seeing a urologist to go down that route he said he has no issue treating whether giving me a script and keeping me at 800 (I wanna be a 1000 but he said 800) or he said I can take what I want but he wouldn’t prescribe me any test if I did that (understandable) but see me and go over blood work with me and help me access my health while on my own. I explained to him I planned to blast and cruise and he said he was still willing to monitor my blood work, have not yet asked about scripts for an AI’s, prami, caber etc did not want to push it but will ask after a few visits
Ive heard that men’s low T clinics are out of pocket only, no insurance but are still not bad on pricing. I’ve also heard the low t clinics are easier to get a script at as they are more willing to treat you even if in range on blood work
it seems many doctors will not prescribe test if you are in range but the range is so big and just can’t understand how a male in his 20’s with test levels around 200-300 is acceptable for some doctors
Just trying to see what the general consensus is for which is a better option for TRT
thanks and happy near year!
