They're not doctors of any type but they understand it because it's very simple and they took the time. But if you created a neurosurgery message board it's unlikely too many if any guys would figure it out like they do TRT because it is far more complicated.
Although simple medicine, you do still have to take the time to learn. You also have to take the time or be willing to accept that things change. For example, almost daily we see threads here where guys talk about going to an endo and how horrible the doctor was despite being a hormone doctor. Why? Because those doctors haven't taken the time. Anything they've learned is the same thing that was taught about hormones in the 70's and 80's and endos are stuck in that and most will not budge. That's why they're normally the worst TRT physicians on earth. I think it's more of an ego thing than anything else. Other physicians, you have a better chance of finding one that's taken the time after medical school, because you're right, modern TRT is not covered in medical school, not in the U.S.
