    Trying to get therapeutic phlebotomy but getting discouraged

    So I had my blood re-tested and my blood cell count was normal (although on the higher end) So I may need to still to the phlebotomy but right now we are just monitoring how I react to the low dose of TRT. So I have started my trt treatment at .22ml 3 times a week subq and hcg 3 times a week also.

    Trying to get therapeutic phlebotomy but getting discouraged

    Until I see a specialist about it being elevated I would have to be on repeat theraputic phlebotomy.....if i find someplace to do it... Again i can go to the local testosterone clinic and they will do it for me and monitor my blood but they are expensive as crap..

    Trying to get therapeutic phlebotomy but getting discouraged

    I called a number of blood banks and was told they don't do it...they weren't even sure what therapeutic phlebotomy was at a couple. The ones that did know, told me they wouldn't honor a prescription from an out of state Dr. I was told and it's even on red cross's website that they can perform...

    Trying to get therapeutic phlebotomy but getting discouraged

    I believe I have because I had been seeing a liver specialist regarding the elevated liver enzymes a few times to monitor. However, it can't hurt to get tested again. I am communicating with the primary care Dr right now as none of my blood work in the past or even as recent as December showed...

    I'm not blowing off their prescription. As I mentioned, none of the Dr's here will accept a prescription from out of state....I have it I just can't use it...The local dr's here are ignorant to TRT and my primary and my urologist does not support it unless my levels are below 250. The places...

    Which office does Melograna work out of? AND I wonder if all their offices are so willing to treat LowT not lower than 250?

    Trying to get therapeutic phlebotomy but getting discouraged

    I originally went to a local Testosterone clinic (Greater Washington Testosterone) to get tested. I paid 99.00 for the blood work and the appointment with the Doctor. They came back with my testosterone levels around 350, I'm 42. They recommended TRT but I thought their "membership" prices...

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
