The Members have made their demand. Stickied.

Let me add a few points to the original post.

These operations only list Providers who are their members. The pharmacies only list Providers who buy their meds from them (in order to build business). And I have heard some pretty crazy stuff being recommended by these compounders, in an effort to make more money. Some of it, even from large pharmaices, was exactly the opposite of the truth. This is what can happen when Pharmacists try to act as if they are doctors.

Appropriate TRT will not make a fertile man infertile. As far as TRT goes, "test is best".

A stimulation test is of little value. When ordering tests, the physician must always ask him/herself "what am I going to do with the results? How is it going to change my treatment? In this case, the treatment will be the same: TRT. Using a SERM-class drug as TRT just does not work.

I am not in favor of testosterone pellet implantation, but that is just my professional opinion.
