    Endo wont test free testosterone cuz....

    he says that free and weekly bound show up the same, so he goes by total. He also won't test DHEA or pregnenelone. Keep him or dump him?! lol

    Well, the free T vs total T is debateable. Some docs place different weight on both. All good docs put more weight into how you feel.

    Not testing and refusing to test are different things. Which does he fall into?

    If I had a doc REFUSE to test DHEA or pregnenolone I would need a good answer why. Quite frankly, I can't think of a good reason NOT to test DHEA. Its an important hormone and easily brought up via cheap drugs.

    My gut says lose this guy, but I wouldn't base my decision based purely on what you wrote here.

    I couldnt really coax him into it. He also didnt want to divide my shot to bi-weekly. My 150mg week shot yields me 1350 on day 3 post shot. I suggested splitting the shot and that i didnt mind injections at all. He just wants to lower me to 100mg a week.
    I independently tested my free test and it was greater than 50, highest being 26

    Sounds like he is a dud. Don't waste more time than you are comfortable wasting with him.

    Move on but keep with him until you find someone else...since it can take time and you don't want to be without nothing.
