How to get my Doc to prescribe HCG with my Test

I asked my primary if he will prescribe HCG and he said no, but he would refer me to a urologist. I called around and found another clinic that would prescribe HCG. I told the practitioner that I was concerned about testicular shrinkage, and pain. He did an exam and prescribed the hcg, but...

Generic Cialis side effects

I get a stuffy nose on low doses. I get hip pain at 10 mg or higher. Ibuprofen really helps with the pain. I also experience the lack of sensitivity and difficulty reaching climax. I did not realize those are a side effect of cialis.

Coming off TRT Restarting.

I would print a few things to take to your appointment, to include the list of recommended blood tests and a copy of Dr. Scally's protocol. I understand why you feel embarrassed/ashamed, but I want to encourage you to drop that baggage. We all make mistakes. We all make choices with...

Coming off TRT Restarting.

My first advice would be to get a good doctor. If you don't have someone local that you trust, Excelmale.com recommends Defy Medical and PrimeBody. Both of those clinics have provided resources here and you can trust that they know what they are doing. Get a consult and tell them you want...

Total Men's Primary Care in Austin, TX

Overall, I had a good experience. I was seen by an NP who conducted a thorough examination. Total Men's Primary Care will put me on HCG, although: 1. They are more expensive than Defy. 2. They want to do a 30 day cycle on to see if it works--no promise of staying on after that. They will...

Latest Update on Metformin

I don't remember the dosage. She was on it for years and the doctor would adjust the dosage periodically, but it tore her stomach up regardless of the changes.

Can testosterone boost combat performance?

I guess if it is done at a base camp and prior to a short mission it could work, but if they are talking about existing on diminished sleep and calories, I assumed they were referring to units that are more "in the field" for an extended period of time and would not have ready access to a...

Probably pellets. They can be administered before mission and sustained for months. The problem is then keeping the functionality of the testicles. If they aren't going to send in needles for injection, they aren't going to send in hcg.
