Trying to educate my doctor on TRT

[Attaboybigen75]

Good Evening, I just wanted to Introduce myself Attaboybigen75 i am 28yo, unfortunately My doctor and I are not seeing Eye to eye. However i believe that given time I can work with the treatment or find someone else unfortunately a Defy medical or testosterone are out of the question. My Total Test is 168 unfortunately she did not check free test or Estrogen levels and she stated that the range was 300 and high of 750 NOT 1100 now i am sure that estrogen is high as my test is so low. She wanted to give me 400 mg test in one shot and check me in a month or so. i highly objected and agreed to to .25ml of 200mg Testosterone Cypionate twice a week. after all my research and reading I personally think this is not enough. I am looking for an endocrinologist, or Urologists that will work with me but to no avail and as she is kinda working with me im tempted to ride it a little while longer thanks.

50 mg of Test Cyp twice a week is a good starting point. Certainly miles better than 400mg once a month - WTF? Can you do your own bloodwork at Discounted labs since she doesn't seem to see the need?

I was considering it She is pulling labs again in a month i think she'll see my need to get another round or two added. I will look into other labs around here to do my blood work and my try and press the issue a little more i plan on trying to get a little more knowledgeable because all i went in there with was " well after my reaserch" I am interested in Mr. Campbell and Mr. Vergal's book to help her along if i can at all i am her youngest Test patient. she did pull other labs but nothing came back out of line. She just didn't pull Estrogen, Lh and FSH, thyroid, PSA and all came back fine.

Be sure she pulls estradiol. There have been men here at EM who report that their doctor ordered estrone or total estrogen.
