Far more health issue with having low test then getting it fixed.

agreed. had low test for almost two years. worst period of my life horrible depression, extreme lack of energy, weakness, no libido. got tested and had total test of 76 after treating for some time i finally feel good agian and have none of the negative symptoms i mentioned above. Besides... its a mens health study, that should be enough to discredit it lol.
 
I often wonder if I have low test. I'm 38 and often have no energy. I feel like I'm in a state of perpetual sluggishness. I dont even want to talk about depression! I'd like to get tested but I don't think my insurance would cover it. Of course I guess it would be worth the money to find out what's going on with me.
 
You can go to an independent lab and get test checked for about $60. Even if not, it's still worth it to go to your doc and pay their fees, which looking at my last statement, was about $200.

I'll have to look into that. Thought it would be much higher.

Go to privatemdlabs.com, order the female hormone profile test (and choose where you'd like to have your blood drawn). Also, look up their 15% off discount code on google. Post your results in the anti-aging forum (you'll get the results within a couple days) and we'll point you in the right direction.
 
Thanks for the info! I'll check it out.

There are a lot of clinics that will do the blood work for free as long as you buy their supplements. I have an appt this week to get my blood work checked. At 41 I feel extremely tired all the time and want to know what is going on internally. It's definitely worth it to feel better. I look forward to feeling better soon, hopefully.

I doubt insurance will pay for anti-aging clinics though. Best to either get your own blood work and go from there, or find a good endo who is willing to work with you.
 
Agreed. It's not a procedure that is covered by insurance. Here in S Fla. there are so many clinics that offer free lab services if you agree to purchase their products. They offer $150 HRT with all labs, Dr's visits, etc so it's pretty much a no brainer if it means making you feel better.

That's impressive, the clinics here charge thousands! But through my insurance it's $20 for 3 200mg testosterone enanthate vials.
