Androgel and E2

[sirupate]

My PCP sort of refused this test when I asked him as well. He said that (my) insurance would not pay for an estrogen test on a guy, but he'd be willing to order the test if I was willing to pay out of pocket. You can get this test on your own if you are willing to pay. I don't know how much it would cost, but it can be done. Oh, yeah, I'm an Androgel guy too...8-10gms./day. No symptoms of high E2, but I dose a small amount of arimidex twice a week.

"I approached my doctor and asked him if he could add the estrogen test to my script, and was told no"

WTF?.....That pisses me off that a doctor would deny you a specific blood test that you requested!

I printed off Dr. Crisler's HRT Protocol (link below) thinking my PCP would get something from it, but I think his ego got in his way of actually learning something from a patient. Its definitely worth reading though...

Good luck!
