Yea, my testosterone had been below 300 but I just got a new test and it was 477. Looks like Low T isn't my problem. Probably just depressed or something. Great.

I'm in the Chicagoland area and I'm looking into TRT treatment. My current primary doc doesn't have a clue. I've heard about Dr. Berger already. I'm curious to hear about other doctors in this area (preferably the western burbs), are there any? Feel free to PM or just post here. Thanks.

Tried to send a private message and the site says I need to turn then on first. How do I do that?

Yes, well assuming my new insurance rejects the Test, I'll be skipping out on this. However, even if they tell me they were able to get the test covered by my insurance, I don't feel comfortable with him anymore. I didn't like his snarky comment about the internet either. It's not 1998 doc, the...

Depressing. I am paycheck to paycheck so I was counting on insurance covering this. Thanks for the info.

My doctor responded and said he based the dosing on Dynamed, one of the three international reviews of treatment and choices. He said he could not be a license for care and meds based on internet recommendations and blogs. He did acknowledge that he started at a lower dose and that the average...

I messaged my doctor asking if I can do 100mg/week instead and also questioning his stated goal of 400-600 when I was 530 when I first noticed symptoms. If he comes back with some smart ass response I'll probably just move on and try to find someone new. Although I am hoping he will come around...

Did you read the thread? Obviously not. Depo is just Test-Cyp.

deleted, forgot to add quoted text.

I live in Chicagoland area.

What do you suggest I say to my doctor?

Do you think I should suggest weekly injections of 50mg? Or just move on to try and find someone else?

Yea, I think I will send him a message saying that I am going to pass. Maybe I should ask to do 100mg/wk but I don't want to be dealing with someone who I don't trust to be up to date with this stuff. Meh, I was excited to finally get someone to prescribe but I don't think it's worth dealing...

I am 40 years old (soon to be 41). My libido and energy have tanked over the last couple years. I went in to get my testosterone checked and my results have been as follows: 8/20/16: 530.6 (felt crappy here, that's why I went in) 5/03/17: 287.6 (got worse) 6/10/17: 270.6 (worse still) My...
