  1. 26, low T, need help convincing the doctors

    1. I've just started using iodised sea salt which has 0.045mg iodine per 1.5 grams. I've also started supplementing with this product - w w w.bioceuticals(dot)com.au/product/preview/Iodine-Forte 2. Please go into more detail if you can. What's wrong with my diet? 3/4. Fair enough. I was...

  4. 26, low T, need help convincing the doctors

    Wow that's quite a difference. I know of one Dr that does all those tests but he's quite expensive and the blood tests aren't covered by the consultation fee either. I'm gonna try to get my GP to order some vitamin deficiency and sensitivity tests.
  5. 26, low T, need help convincing the doctors

    The product I've got is called Iodine Forte - Potassium iodide 376mcg, equiv. to iodine 288mcg, equiv. to potassium 88mcg. Since that seems like a small dose compared to what you start your clients out on, there wouldn't be any harm in trying it? I'm near Sydney. I might get in touch with Daine...
  6. 26, low T, need help convincing the doctors

    Australia but same ****. Although this guy was free, the one before I had to pay out of pocket but got the same result. You mentioned iodine before. I've got an iodine oral spray which I was going to use but do you reckon I get checked for a deficiency before using it or would it be ok to start...

  8. 26, low T, need help convincing the doctors

    I'll ask him about checking estrogen. It doesn't look like he ordered that test. Maybe I can convince the nurse to add that to the list when I go in for the blood draw. Specifically what tests should I ask for to check my adrenal glands? And how do you correct them? And getting down to the...

  10. 26, low T, need help convincing the doctors

    I'm guessing their reasons are because I'm just below the range which they consider to be normal. I know people can have differing readings and still feel and be healthy but it seems pretty logical, I have the symptoms along with the low readings. I'm obviously not functioning correctly. Blood...
  11. 26, low T, need help convincing the doctors

    That's what I'm hoping for, that he actually thoroughly looks into what's causing it. The previous guy didn't feel the readings were low so he sent me on my way as did a primary doctor. I obviously don't want to be on TRT if I can avoid it. So far I haven't been offered any alternative reasons...
