    $99 Blood Test

    For all LowTestosterone.com clients.

    If you would like additional blood work done, you can request a requisition at any time for only $99. The $99 blood test includes:

    CMP-14
    CBC
    Testosterone Free & Total
    Estradiol

    This does not replace any of the included blood test in the program, you still receive those. This is simply an additional blood test you can order as often as you'd like.

    Simply call and make your request any time you'd like.

    For LowTestosterone.com Clients Only

    i think privatemd is cheaper..especially when you consider they dont have the 2500/yr subscruption fee...not trying to bash just saying.

    that's a great deal LT! I looked up one of the cheapest online labs we use and it added up to over $190. that's $100 difference!

    what i think would be a good idea is if lowt offered ADDITIONAL tests in their program. These are just extra of the same things they already offer. I'm also surprised a psa or cholesterol int included?

    or how come the lowt docs cant write a script for any extra bloodwork not covered by lowt? most insurances cover labwork....i think the cost can really add up with all of the extras. lowt charges...like the pharmacy fees.

    Lowt, your opinion. Do you think you all can get a client dialed in with 3 blood test?

    My LowT doc will write me any blood work I want if my insurance will pay for it. And he does. He's real cool. He actually signed the the labcorp form and sent it to me and told me to check whatever I wanted to test and have it tested. I took it to another lab that excepted my insurance and they tranfered the orders to their form. That easy!
    LowT has made my life easier. Don't have to see my GP for bloods all the time now.

    this will be very hard to do, most of us took at least a year. body has to go through a period of adapting, its hard to tell when it'll stabilize.

    now that's what im talking about! I think the fee should be all inclusive without having to add in extra bloodworks out of pocket so it's great your doc does that for you. Those check off lab forms are great huh? lol...i might have snuck a psa on mine..maybe....

    We still do the ones LowT has me do. The other ones we do in-between are for adjusting DHEA, cholesterol, blood count, checking PSA and I throw the sensitive E on there and free test. Im not going to take advantage of my insurance so with the three I get from LowT and a couple extra a year I'm g2g.

    Plus the customer care I get from LowT is fantastic. LowTMike has always been accessible to help out with any probs Im going through. I've had to change my oils in my test to figure out elergic reactions. Mikes on the phone with me explaining everything in detail, taking care of the pharmacy, having new scripts immediately sent to me and checking up on me along with my LowT doc. Its like the KISS Army of TRT.haha

    The lab is Physicians Automated. He didn't have to sign the transferred document.

    The initial blood test comes with all of the above mentioned as well as a full lipid panel, LH and PSA.

    In many cases, yes. I'd say more so than not. However, if the doctor wants the individual to have another blood test it's added. No big deal. However, if the individual simply wants another one because he wants another one, that's up to him to pay for. There are some people that want a blood test nearly every single month. There's no reason most people would ever need one that often but if that's what they want they can have it for $99.

    Private md labs is $50 for the female hormone panel which includes everything lowt mentioned except 'free T' but also includes LH and FSH.

    Free T is like $80 alone, but can be found in packaged deals for a good price.

    Upon check-out it will ask you female or male and all readings/lab ranges will be adjusted accordingly. It's just labeled a female hormone panel...

    This is an offer to LowT clients only, correct. They put the offer on the table, you don't have to accept it. It would be unwise to do it if you can get the same or better tests for a cheaper price. You are already paying for their service, this is an extra. They are separate although linked together.

    The subsciption fee is for treatment and a fair and reasonable price on quality meds. Has nothing to do with the extra blood tests. I would also thing the extra blood tests may be more for someone who plans on doing some other meds on the side and not what the LowT doctor has prescribed...just my thinking.

    I have to agree, I really don't see how the doc can have my numbers dialed in by 6 weeks but I am giving him the benefit of the doubt right now. If I don't feel "good" after that bloodwork i guess i will have to talk to him about the symptoms and see what happens then. I would have to think that if the symptoms justified another bloodtest, they would give it but I cannot vouch for that because I haven't gone that far.

    Brett if your with lowtestosterone than if you read all the post in this thread, I ask them a ? And lowt responded IF the dr needs another test they cover it. If you just want another test then you pay 99.00. I'm with them too.

    Maybe you will get banned soon, it's clear as day now why you are not fixed because you are a know it all that's no so smart. Bashing the people that pay for this site and help you for free is a real dick move, then you post about going to see a different doctor and STILL get advice from the people not getting paid, now you post that other places have a better price? Like someone coming in you place and eating all your food w/o paying and telling you it sucks.

    i wasnt bashing anyone..and there is no reason to ban me..YOU should be banned for following me around talking crap 24/7.
    Im saying my opinion..I love this site, but if i were to join a clinic id still shop around looking for the best deal.

    I also appreciate all the advice people give me, and thank them often. That doesnt mean I have to say lowt is the best deal ever..or that im bashing them i i say there are cheaper options.

    i dont know it all, but i do know a lot, and i never rub my knowledge in peoples' faces i help people when i have an opportunity..it seems you just like fighting...and pretending you;re a grandiose being.
    The only one who gave me advice in my thread btw was bass and he doesnt work for lowt. I was a little surprised not more people posted congratulating me on seeing the enw dr though...and this is not specifically a lowt forum..most here dont work for lowt and only a handful go there bc for most people it is a little more than they could afford.

    I didn't think you were bashing at all powerlift, it is actually a lot smarter to be a good consumer no matter what the product is.

    If I was going to run a cycle or do something unrelated to LowT I would definitely look into seeing what was the best deal. Down the road that may be what I do but for now I just want to get my house in order. They run a convenient program for me at a reasonable price. Not to mention they already reimbursed me for my travel. Everything around me came out to well over the $200 mark per month.

    Guys, let's keep the thread relevant. Low T has an offer that they've presented, and for many it might be a great option. Please keep the dialogue healthy, and let staff worry about who gets banned or not banned. Thanks

    o my lord what happened to this thread?! poor LT, all he did was offer a great deal for LowT patients. its a great deal IMHO. think about it, its not just BW but since they are offering it for their patients most likely they will also interpret the results, and that alone is worth at least $250.00. even if interpreting results are not included still a great deal. get over it.

    All I was saying is that in every thread or post where lowtestosterone.com is mentioned, you seem to always point out something you see as a flaw. Maybe you're not intentionally bashing but that's what you're unintentionally doing.

    Anyway, is it the best price for blood work on earth? I don't know, there might be cheaper out there, but I'm 100% positive that you're not going to get $99 blood work anywhere on earth along with the service low t provides. And yes, I'm with low t.
