Rebirth as PCT for mild PH?

I'd like to kindly interject an opposing viewpoint for the sake of this gent. I may be wrong in this case but an important point has been offered with regards to a number as stated above. (448) It looks to be a decent number. His Free T might be just within range of normal.

In the USA there has been a stigma associated with TRT and a great misunderstanding as to it's benefits by doctors. They seem to be happy with some kind of number linked to a need. If you are below 390 then you 'qualify'...

What is that magic number for everyone? It doesn't exist. If doctors could take one case by case instead of relying on some standard that is incorrect based on years of research by those on the cutting edge of HRT, we'd make more progress. I've been in a tussle with my doctor's head nurse about my prescription. Then there's the females in healthcare who may take a dim view of TRT for men.

It's still far to and away inaccessible for too many, and those that have it are paying too much for what should be much simpler and covered by insurance. Often times the best practitioners are private.
 
...Highly doubt a reading of 448 will get you trt

Already emailed doctor with readings before initial consult. Just need to do the remaining bloodwork. My free t was below normal plus have symptoms that is why the doctor says I am a candidate.. The practitioner is private and seems more progressive. He believes in getting patients into the optimal range which is the upper level of normal (800 to 950 range).
