TRT Asking doc for shots vs Axiron

[made2last]

Already on Axiron but it's not going to work in the summer, I have a 5 and a 7 year old

Is there a question or were you just letting us know your summer plans? lol

This past Mothers day I was wearing a tank top, and I went to pick up my 5 year old and he grabbed my underarms while trying to get away. I panicked and washed his hands asap. I don't think Axiron is gonna work as long as it's hot out, it doesn't dry fast at all. I left a message with the doctors office to try something else, if he doesn't give me shots what should I do?

 

[kisaj]

You could try other locations and wash up your forearms after application. I apply all transdermals on inner thigh.

 

[made2last]

the label is adamant about applying it to underarms tho, is there a reason for this?

get some test from someone at your local gym and shoot up in your bathroom

srs.

if he doesnt give u test, tell him you'll just go get it urself, he'll give it to you

Explain to your doctor that you have and are around children all the time. Ask that he change you over to injections. If he doesn't then find another doctor.

Thanks for the feedback guys, he told me to finish the axiron which has like 2 weeks worth left, and he said he will give me the patch when it's time for a refill. He said he doesn't like the patches much because they can cause skin irritation, I searched "patch" in AM but I didn't find anything except info in IGF life force patches. Anyone try a testosterone patch? and what did you guys think?

Look him square in the eye and tell him what's up. Gently rest your hand on his shoulder to establish connection first. Then, lean into him gently and smell his neck, a little ways below the ears.... softly.

Lol! Seriously, this is your life and health, you need to be outright and firm with your request or they will lead you around.

You guys need to be assertive with your healthcare Practitioners

He works for you, and they are a dime a dozen... fire him and get another.
