[QUOTE="isenita, post: 242593, member: 44844"] Hello All, Need your advice. I have low testo: 250 first test. LH and FSH are high , PSA, Thyroid, and prolactin are fine. Int the last 3-4 years I went from 15% body fat to 25% body fat developing NAFLD and despite trying dieting and come back to the gym I feel low energy and not able to be consistent at all. Based on my blood work a hormon replacement clinic wants to put me in TRT. I just went to an endocrinologist and their approach is: repeat all blood work once more early in the morning (the previous one was done at noon) also a bunch of test for some rear conditions never heard off. Come back in one month and we see if prescribe weight loss drugs and then eventually TRT if weight loss is not working. Their view is that if I lose weight, the testosterone should go back to a more normal value. What do you suggest to do: Go with the TRT clinic and don't follow up with the endocrinologist or go with the endocrinologist and wait for the TRT to see if some semaglutide or some other drug will help lose weight and go back to the gym regularly. Other info: my health insurance has a high deductible (3K per year), I have heard if TRT prescribed trough insurance then one disqualify for life insurances down the road etc. Thanks [/QUOTE]
