    Conveniently, I am going to get a vasectomy this coming year. What a perfect opportunity!

    Great point.

    Thanks for all the input!

    Now I'm stuck with another question... I'm 2 weeks into self-administering TRT from UGL gear. How is the urologist going to react to that? Would he understand that I was convinced by my doctor(s) that TRT wasn't possible, so I decided to take my health into my own hands? Or, should I stop now and just pretend it never happened until after I see the urologist?
    Telling the doctor you are injecting illegal steroids into your body is a bad idea. The doctor reserves the right to break patient confidentiality if he/she thinks you are going to cause harm to either yourself or someone else.

    I used to work in health care and this is something I do know quite a bit about. You hear it on TV and people say it all the time, but they actually do not have that right, as you describe it. There are very strict guidelines for mandatory and permissive reporting (tighter than most people think), and this would certainly not qualify. Break confidentiality for anything outside those guidelines at the risk of your license and multiple lawsuits. It doesn't happen, and it wouldn't happen in this case.

    My question was more about the attitude of how he would take the news and whether it would affect his decision to assist. But I guess it doesn't matter. If he gets sassy about it, I could just ask for a different urologist as you described above.

    I feel that there is nothing beneficial about telling a prospective doctor. whom you have no medical relationship with yet about gear usage.
