[QUOTE="Systemlord, post: 104629, member: 15832"] I don't know your age, but 218 is that of a 100+ year old man. The only way free T can be inranges is if you have super low SHBG. Free T measured directly is inaccurate do to the very short half life of free T, free T is released in short micro pusles throughout the day and an hour later it could be low. The reason why your doctor offer only gel is she knows full well she is ill equipped to balance your testosterone and estrogen and provide aromatase inhibitors to control excess estrogen because she's inexperienced like most doctors. It's far easier for to do two pumps a day of gel then deal with the headache of balancing your hormones on injectables, less skill is required for those already seriously lacking experience. Insurance doctors aren't permitted to prescribe aromatase inhibitors as it's not considered standard of care. My first endo pushed gels on me even though I wanted injections, it didn't take long to learn he had never done TRT before and it was new to him as he doesn't normal do TRT. Thyroid is fine? Are we taking the word of the very same doctors who are failing to order proper labs for TRT? Fine equals in ranges, these ranges are already far too wide and have lots of people in ranges with symptoms. Forgive me if I seem skeptical. [/QUOTE]
