Indeed I'm still in NS. We're travelling to Ohio in a week so I was hoping to get it done through discountedlabs/quest but the ordering process requires a US address. Is there a way to get around this?
For any Canadian members:
How/where were you able to get blood work done while in the US? I was mainly interested in the sensitive estrogen test since I can't get it done here and lipoprotein(a)/apob.
There has been no discussion of an attempt to restart. Given that my GP doesn't seem to be experienced with TRT, I doubt he's familiar with any restart protocols. It may be best just to hold out for the endo who is more likely to have experience with restart attempts.

I will see what I can get my GP to run for me. He's been pretty open to my requests so hopefully there won't be much challenge there.

Bioavailable Testosterone: 1.90 nmol/L...
Interesting. This whole TRT thing is clearly more complex than it seems on the surface. Thanks for the reply. (To you and the others who mentioned it being highly individual.)

Which studies would you folks recommend showing
a) Positive effects / safety of TRT
b) Negative impact of living with low T
It is one thing to tell her verbally, but I think it would help for her to see...
Thank you both for your replies.
Unfortunately finding GPs in Nova Scotia is pretty bad at the moment. Many people are on a wait list just to get a family doctor. Not sure what my options are in terms of finding someone new.
That would be amazing if a referral could be obtained. I certainly...
Hi,
30 year old here with past AAS use (years ago). Since the AAS I had never felt that my libido had returned to normal. Dealing with lack of desire, weaker erections, etc.. In addition I have many of the typical symptoms for low T. (Depressed, lack of motivation, brain fog, grumpy..)...
