    Don't be alarmed!

    The lab is just referring you to a specialist to further diagnose the results.

    Tell us everything about yourself.

    Just so you know, most Endo's don't know much about hormone replacement in men.

    Make sure the one you choose has knowledge in this area.

    whats the difference between seeing an endo vs hrt doc? Isnt TRT the only treatment that can be prescribed?
    Are trt docs more likely to have you walk out with prescription and endos just make you go have 100s of lab tests instead?

    A true TRT Doc is trained in hormone replacement according to the American Academy for Anti Aging Medicine www.a4m.com

    Some Endo's get it...most don't,

    You need to be assessed and treated correctly.

    You should be getting a pretty intense battery of blood work to see what is going on. Hopefully any doctor you see will do this.

    Multiple things can cause Low T. It is best to rule everything else out, IMO, before you go strait TRT or HRT.

    Agree with that. My endo doesn't know crap about what I'm doing or anything related to what people doing AAS are doing. They only know how to read the results and see that you are within range. AS far as your testosterone level something seems out of wack to me anyway. Are you saying free test of 7.0 ? My natural before cycle was 619 total and free was 200 +/+ something/ At highest on cycle mine was 7333. and free was 5024. Then 5400 something then free was 2450. Go figure, I can't see that number to be correct. Do some checking if I were you. ...crazy mike
    good luck

    I wouldn't waste my time going to an endo... unless he's a particular one in Belgium. That's about it.
