CoastWatcher - If one becomes a patient of Defy or other telemedicine type docs do they also issue the prescription(s) to a pharmacy of one's choosing? Most don't take insurance so do you have a ballpark figure of what they charge to manage your TRT on a yearly basis?
Thank you for responding!

Scenmed check your PM box.
EDIT: Oh never mind you don't have PMs turned on.
With Defy you're looking at roughly 100-120 a month.
Yeah you won't have insurance cover it, but you've been working with insurance and that hasn't been working that great so far.
The old adage of "you get what you pay for" certainly applies.
Pm sent I hope it helps.FL-I just enabled PM. Was not even aware of such a thing but it's ready to go. Thanks!
I also use Defy Medical for my TRT, you can also check out Prime Body. They both advertise here.Thanks for that info. I mainly go to my present Doc just to maintain my prescriptions so moving on is not a huge issue. $1200 a year isn't terrible if that includes most labs and getting the Rx.
