    To add to that last post, when we were talking about HCG , he asks "do you get that from us or do you have a source?" I was like "Der bee der uhh hmm uhh, I get it from a variety of places", a little flustered because I was like "damn, how often does your doc ask if you have a source without judging?"

    Now, if I can just get him away from total estrogen panels, my work will be done.

    Oh and he wrote me 6 months of scripts, with follow up blood work in July. First time he has ever done that, so I'm like "where my stash is?"

    One of the advantages to living in Florida, I guess...

    Wow, that's awesome Cy! So would I surance then cover hcg if a Dr prescribed it? I might have to inquire about that with my new pcp! He seems pretty cool, but I've only seen him the one time after switching from the girl I was seeing who was terrible.

    My trt guy will most def write me a script for many things. Just not sure how insurance would work in that case. I guess same as test. Hmmm

    Re: In bold above. It shouldn't be. It's not as light as grapeseed oil, but cottonseed is what Pfizer uses.


    Edit: Make sure you get the 200mg/ml test and not 100mg/ml (female dosage) test.

    Pharmacies have been know to make a mistake. Not very often, but it happens once I'm a blue moon.

    That's going to be all up to your insurer. That's one reason I'm like "eh, just let me pay out of pocket". My guess is getting hcg covered for a man will be tough, but then again, I also thought my t wouldn't be covered on my plan, so WTH do I know lol?

    It is the 200 mg ml. Looks like this:

    140mg per week in two subq injections.

    I was kind of surprised that he started that high after being somewhat conservative in other practices, but that is a good number, I think.

    He did do some quick math in his head. I was on two clicks of the cream, 1/2 ml aka 100mg topical per day. So it seems like he is sort of assuming about a 20% absorption rate of the cream. That's probably not far off if, TBH, with my results, and probably would have gotten more if I applied to the scrote. Point being, that 20% compounded cream is legit, don't think it isn't. But all that DHT...

    I've had no issues on insurance covering test. Low t causes a number of issues in men as we all know, so I think insurance providers are way more open to covering it. In my short and limited experience anyway.

    But yeah hcg is probably questionable in most cases.

    Edit. Well I haven't tried to use insurance since going to injections. Need to file it next time I get it filled.

    It comes in a one ML vial that costs about 17 Bucks. I’m breaking them up into 100mg weekly - I just want one a week < is that too much to ask for?

    I’ve talking to all the old guys at the gyms and they’re all on UGL shit - wtf
    Here's a link to my ARNP. She offers telemed, which is what I have. She was trained by Dr. Rouzier, so she's not afraid of prescribing testosterone to relieve symptoms, regardless of lab values. I pay $270 per year to her which is cheaper than any clinic that I've ever seen.

    Shouldn't be long. I got my 90 day supply at CVS earlier this week. If they find some at another pharmacy in your area and offer to transfer the script, make sure they don't lose your refills.

    FWIW, Walgreens will often have test when CVS comes up dry.
    I've been reading online when I take time visit a few places and several posts were regarding a "test" shortage. In a lot of the posts I read, they usually had their test within a week or so.

    Edit: Just make sure they will credit your refills if you transfer your script to Walgreens, etc.

    That's what I meant about keeping the box it came in. Just drop the UGL test in the box, maybe after transferring to a sterile vial, but maybe not. They probably won't check that closely.

    That's my thoughts anyhow.

    Either use a legit empty vial or UGL like EP or PC though. Some scribbled on the side shit like "dis tren is fire, bro!" would probably be worse than nothing...

    It's ridiculous that pharmacies can't stay stocked with maintenance meds.

    10 years ago, nobody had ever heard of a drug shortage at pharmacies. Now they're common for literally every medicine.

    You'd think that pharmacies would have a pretty good idea of how much to stock based on how many open prescriptions they have on hand. It's only going to get worse from here.
