Brothers on hrt

**STONES2** · 08-28-2008, 06:02 PM

I am going to be starting HRT and am asking if any of the Brothers on this board can suggest which clinic has the lowest price.

I spoke with two this morning and the differences with blood work and the price of test-e was quite a bit.

My labs and visits are covered by insurance and I only pay for the actual medication.

Thanks Brother I am hoping that my insurance will pay for mine but if not I do not want to be foolish and pay more than I have to.

My insurance covers TRT 100%, but if you go to a place online the following is what I've received. The prices vary from place to place, you just have to find the one that's right for you.

"The Testosterone therapy itself can be as little as $150.00, however our normal therapy’s which include estrogen blockers and a complete post cycle therapy can run 3 to 4 times that (normally around $650) amount depending on your particular situation.

Costs

Lab Option
Lab work examination via a traveling paramedic service $495.00
or
Lab work at a nearby Lab facility $250.00

Testosterone injection program / protocol (3 month program) $695.00 or (6 month program) $1,180.00.

Three Month Protocol

Testosterone cypionate 10cc 200mg (1) vial
Protocol: 1 ml injection (IM) per week for 10 weeks
Anastrozole 1mg capsules (30)
Protocol: 1 capsule 3 x per week
Vitamin B-12 30cc (1) vial
Protocol: 1 cc injection via insulin syringe per week

Post cycle
HCG 10,000 unit vial

Just go to your doctor and stay away from the internet clinics which charge a freaking arm and a leg for their HRT.

Your family doctor can run the same blood tests and hook you up with what you need. If he just wants to start you out on the androgel go with that and if you eventually want the shots just tell him it's not working for you like you hoped and that you want the shots.

I guarantee you'll save a ton of money going through a local doctor than you would any clinic that you find on the internet. JMO

There are so many of these so shop around and deal with them until you get what you want. Some of these guys are like car sales men.

**Dr_BruceBanner** · 08-31-2008, 06:12 PM

Well if money isn't a question then hell yeah go to a clinic and get the works. HGH, test, PCT. I'm sure they can hook you up very nice.

I was just suggesting because he was asking about what was the LOWEST cost.

SO money must be an issue. I'm pretty sure a lot of you would/are jumping through hoops in order to get what you need and NOT have to pay 1500.00 bucks for just a shot of test every other week.

Yes, the internet clinics are very expensive and I agree that your local doc is the way to go. It's just w/the clinics there's not as much hoop jumping. I was thankful that I didn't have to jump through any hoops w/my doc and that it was covered by my insurance.

Feel your pain bro I'm in the same type of situation, online clinic pricing all over the map, no HRT doc in my insurance group, and family doc needs to be educated...slow going. If you have the $, I say pay for the local clinic and keep it off your medical records...just be careful as my last online clinic was closed down.
