[QUOTE="Mr_Detail, post: 43177, member: 13573"] Gentlemen; I am 60 yrs. old and I consider myself pretty healthy at this stage of life. I am 6'4" tall and weigh 167 lbs. soaking wet. The only script I take is for high BP once a day. I don't drink alcohol at all. I work out at my companies gym 3-4 times per week doing cardio, weight machines and free weights for an hour plus. I just went through a TURP procedure in February for an enlarged prostate and not being able to pee. Not fun. Here is past history for addressing my T-levels: a) Originally tried Androgel on my shoulder. Never got enough good absorption to make a difference. b) Next found a doctor (on my healthcare plan) that actually prescribed HCG injections daily and this actually worked in raising my T-levels upwards of 600. He discovered that the HCG stimulated my pituitary gland to manufacture more testosterone. Unfortunately last year he went off the grid and now charges anyone $200 an office visit. I can't afford that. c) Went to see another endocrinologist to ask about Testopel pellets that are injected into your buttocks. Turns out that will cost me out of pocket around $750 per year. He wanted to inject 7-8 pellets every 3-4 months. d) Back to Square one now. Don't know where to turn that is affordable. Even called a compounding pharmacist to ask about him compounding testosterone (Bio-Identical?) cream for me. Still no insurance coverage. Seems I am destined to a total T of 316 for now. Thanks for your previous responses. [/QUOTE]
