    I need opinion on TRT deal

    since my doc refused me TRT i started looking for other alternatives, and since i want to do this legally, i found this clinic and spoke with the man in charge, he offered me a 6 month therapy for $1,200 then $300 every 6 moths thereafter. the therapy will be at 200mgs test cyp plus hCG and anti estrogen meds. this maybe become a life time commitment, so my questions is, is this a good deal or should i keep looking?

    in case something goes wrong i don't have to worry about it, and once i get enough experience with it then I'll look for other ways!

    I was just put on TRT since my test levels are now tanked. I'm 42 and I'm sure the juicing over the years has not helped. I have a good doc & he prescribed me androgel ...plus Cialis to boot to keep me & the wife happy! I refused to take the Androgel so he then prescribed me Striant, I refused that too and said I want shots. So now I am seeing the Urologist & Endo next week for them. I'll find what I want dammit!

    If you don't need referrals you should go ahead & schedule appointments with an Endo and/or urologist. Or go find another doctor! The Wellness clinics are great too, I just got set up with one myself. They seem to understand "cycling" LOL

    Bass, if you don't have much experience injecting/cycling then the deal from the clinic sounds pretty good, if it includes consulting (which they usually do). They'll talk you through it all. My wellness clinic will do that for additional fees, but if you're already well-versed with juicing then they leave you be & send your prescribed medication :-)

    thanks for the replies everyone!

    SlimmerMe, my doc did a complete blood work, all was fine except the test, i was at 299 total and 9.7 free!

    JPKMan, Thanks!

    Triple Stack, thanks! yes i don't have experience in injecting, so this is why i want to play it safe for my first cycle/therapy, i have no problem pinning myself, just don't know how...yet!

    BaseLine 9, the reason is what i said above, i have no experience injecting or cycling, this is why i need professional guidance.

    Thanks again,
    Bass

    I JUST got back to the office from seeing my doc at a clinic. $187 total for office visit, blood test and first shot of Test Cyp. Left with a prescription for 10cc bottle for 200mg weekly injections. She said the scrip will cost $50 - $100 depending on the pharmacy. Test results come back in a week so they can decide what else to do depending on my current Est levels.

    So, that means that if I stick with 200mg/week I will need about 5 bottles a year for a total of $375 a year, plus one office visit every six months.

    Sounds like you need to shop around? Are there other clinics in your city?

    not sure you read his entire thread thoroughly....shopping around is a great idea anyway but you quoted your price and said it was for test only...he is getting test, hcg , and an AI

    Sounds like a very good deal bass. From my perspective the major advantage of doing it with a clinic via a doctor with legal presciptions is the protection it offers you down the road with your insurance coverage. If you do gear on your own without a doctor's prescription and your insurance finds out they could deny you coverage if you develop serious health issues down the road. Just my two cents - - -

    I did read the whole thread, but simply did the match wrong in my head. Somehow I thought it was a lot more than $1,500 first year. I heard TGT helps with mental acuity...fingers crossed.

    Do you mind if I PM you when I have the right amount of post count? I would really like to deal with a place that I know is on the level.

    Bass, looks like a pretty good deal with what you'll be getting. How much HCG & AI are they proposing to you? Does this include regular BW visits, including a follow up in 6 weeks after you start?

    sounds pretty good to me. It is SUCH a pain in the ass to find a good doc. I went through three and my current one doens't want to hear aobut HCG or AI's.....just Test C and viagra (if needed lol). So this sounds like if you have the money....pull the trigger!
