Hi All,
I've been lurking around here for some time and I've learned a lot from you guys.
I was referred to a urologist after my total test levels came back low,257 ng/dL. (reference range: 280-800 ng/dL)
He agreed that the levels were low and we discussed some trt options. Two of which were the androgel and test shots.
It seems that he is suggesting I go the androgel route due to its easy application and "stable" levels that it provides. I know that I really do not want to go down that route due to its messy application, transference risk (i'm married) and sometimes questionable absorption rate.
I know from reading on the forum that shots broken up 2x a week (100-200mg/wk) is best to stabilize levels but he is insisting that the shots be done biweekly and in his office.
How do you guys persuade him to do a proper test shot protocol? and in the convenience of my home? Unfortunately switching docs is not an option as I am with an HMO.
Thanks
