Its just that, in many cases, some prefer not to, and they will try to discourage you by giving you the canned lecture about dangerous sides. For some, its a money-making thing and the "song and dance" are a way to give you only so much (but never enough) replacement so you have to keep coming back and pay again and again. But a part of it is also CYA because if they put you on steroids they have to have the clinical justification for it for the insurance companies (where applicable) and for LE if they are audited. Others just don't want the hassle with the DEA. If you are a doctor who writes a lot of scripts for large doses of anabolic supplements (the types of doses that most guys over 40 probably need) you will likely end up under the microscope just as much as you would be if you write large numbers and doses of scripts for narcs. Nothing illegal about it but there IS such a thing as too much as far as LE is concerned. They do track these prescriptions, and in some cases they have placed conditions on some physicians' licenses that limit the amount of certain classes of drugs that they can prescribe within a given time period. If you google it, you will find that LE is cracking down on many pain/HRT clinics in certain states where a lot of these places have popped up like candy stores in recent years. So, again its a matter of CYA.
But, there is usually a way around most obstacles---if you are patient and if you look hard enough. Prison time and loss of a medical/nursing license aren't very appealing---but money always is! There are docs and nurses who work the HR clinic scene who undertstand exactly what you want. These are the ones who are extremely discrete about how they conduct their business and can provide you with real private label 'vitamins' akin to the stuff we're talking about here. You just have to know where to look, though most probably wouldn't take you as that type of client unless you are referred by someone they know and trust. A few have been busted, but there are others out there.
I know nothing, admit to nothing, and deny everything. Just sayin' ...
