Hi, I went to a wellness/anti aging center to get started on TRT. For years I have felt tired and unfocused, low energy levels, low libido, etc. About 2 years back I self dosed a Sust cycle for 3 months about 550/mg week (3x weekly) and came off with just Clomid. The source was not very good in my opinion although the test was good. I did my best to try to find a better source on here but it didn't work out. Anyway during the cycle I felt absolutely amazing, slept great, great libido, great energy etc but when I came off, somehow I think the Clomid was bunk or was actually Cialis because I was having crazy erections but feeling like shit. I even quit my job.
Anyway fast forward 2 years and here I am posting again. This time with blood results and through a doctor. Ideally I would like to go through a general practitioner or urologist etc and get it prescribed, and I have really really good insurance through my union trade job.
But anyway I just wanted to get started so I went to one of these clinics. Paid $50 for bloods, $150 for consultation, and then my monthly fee is $175 for Test Cyp, Anastrozole, and HCG. Doc also recommended Omega, coq10, vit D, niacin, and quercetin.
Going through my bloods he said everything was pretty normal, including my test levels (which I purposely tried to make low by not working out, drinking a ton, etc), but Estrogen was high. As a result he put me on 5 days straight of Anastrozole.
My weekly dosing was recommended as follows:
Monday 1/2cc Test Cyp ~100mg
Tuesday/Wednesday 1 pill Anastrozole @ 1mg
Sat/Sun 20 units HCG
So here are my questions
1 - Does that seem like a ripoff? Price seems a bit high. Price is the same whether you're on 100 or 200mg etc.
2 - Does that seem like way too much Anastrozole? I was thinking more like 1mg per week max and splitting the pill into fourths.
3 - Does anything else stand out from my bloods, etc? Any other advice would be fantastic, thanks.
Here are my results please let me know if you need any more info
