In the military can I just flat out ask for HRT?

The army is so cheap. They'll probally give me motrin.

That actually depends.

Do you have an LOD over a testicular injury? I know of an NCO serving in Iraq right now who has had 7 20ml vials of cyp sent with him, and they regularly get new needles from the medics.

This was due to having a bad testes injury durring combatives training.

You could just ask to see a urologist. Tell them it is for a personal issue.

All you have to tell the urologist (probably an 0-6 pay grade) is that you never wake up with an errection, your memory is bad, and that you fatigue very easily durring PT.

If he gives you a blood test and it comes back low, then it makes sense for them to put on on IM test.

Believe it or not, testosterone cypionate is a pretty low-cost med. Out of pocket cost for 20ml is around $85.00 USD from most commercial pharmacies. Some places even less.

Only a fraction of what the creams (less effective too) cost.

I started TRT while I was in the military...I'm out now, but it can be done.

Did an LOD help?

Anyhow, if someone is a former AAS user, and suspects their natty test is getting low, and pct does not cut it etc...

My theory on how to get a script for test in the military:

Then the next time you and the other guys are just goofing around, and you get even lightly beaned in the nads; Fall over and clutch your nuts, while screaming/crying.

Do not let them get you up and back to whatever is going on for the day. Just scream like a 12 year old girl if they try to move you. Crying will help.

99% chance that they will think something REALLY BAD must have happened to your nads. You will hear things in the background like: “ohh god his nuts must have gotten twisted or sumthing?” “Should we get a medic?” “That makes my nuts hurt just looking at him”. “Guys move out of the way, get him some air!” "alright! who kicked him in the nuts?!!!" "your supposed to be in charge, what the hell happend here?!?!" “Loosen his bootlaces, he might go into shock!”

Later on, after a few hours have gone by, slowly come out of it. Likely your belt will be lose, and your buddies may have taken off your boots. You may even have a blanket on you.

Get an LOD. For whatever reason, say you just want a document saying your hurt your nads, but are feeling a little better now.

Wait a couple months, and then ask to see the urologist. Bring with the "NAD injury" LOD.

Let him know what "happened", and that you really feel that you have "just not been right" afterward, and you have been noticing some really bad changes. You suck at PT, no morning erection, not having fun doing what you used to etc... I would be shocked if he did not order blood test for your testosterone level. Now all you got to do is come back low on the blood test.

If a test comes back saying you have low testosterone, AND you have an LOD of a possible nad injury, it will help your chances of uncle Sam providing cyp.
