I've spoken with several TRT clinics, and they are some pricey treatments.
What I thought was agood deal with HCG at 150$ a month leaves out the fine print. If the doctor order extra visits, etc, they are 100$ a pop, not including bloodwork. 2 annual visits come with the package.
Hell, if I started TRT, I'd probably be doing bloods every 4 weeks until I got dosage and E levels squared away. So thats almost 200$ extra a month on top of the 150.
No thanks, figure tests at 60$ a vial, needles, etc, plus monthly bloods, less than 200$ a month, including some sort of AI.
If I just take my bloods to my regular MD for review, thats covered under copays.
So this leaves me with once last question to everyone.
If I self administer just TRT levels (lets say 125x2 per week), at 58yo with a test level of 560, will it augment my test production, or slowly take it over and I'll have to increase dosage?(if I decide to cruise for awhile)
Thats kind of the last thing I'm trying to figure out. Wondering if I shouldnt try upping test first with clomid or nolvadex first? Or do test and hcg instead for awhile, trying to make sure I'm augmenting my test and not shutting down natural production. (and yes I know every person is different)
Sorry for all the questions, I've spent a good month reading here and elsewhere trying to put it all together.
