[QUOTE="Blackhawk, post: 183453, member: 16042"] See his other introductory post. That's what they wanted to do. There are red flags here about your provider. A few thoughts off the top of my head about potential red flags indicating your provider is not up to date with managing TRT: -Dosing based solely on total T, free T not assessed or considered -no baseline SHBG blood test, or no consideration for SHBG to determine dosage frequency (the worst is idiocy like dosing every 2 weeks!) -no estradiol blood test, or wrong type. You need LC/MS/MS, NOT Roche ECLIA -Also starts you on anastrozole(arimidex) in 0.25mg doses or more from the start. -1.5" deep IM harpoons for your injections -dependency on clinic to administer injections or fill syringes unless you specifically want that [/QUOTE]
