[QUOTE="iknowexactly, post: 320915, member: 760"] You have to understand most doctors are in the business of damage control. If they are GPs they are somewhat prevention oriented, but only towards specific traditional illness, not towards the process of AGING. New philosophical views among SOME doctors are that aging is an illness which is partly preventable, partly by T therapy. Let's face it "natural" aging is a nightmare. You end up a wrinkled, stooped over, incontinent, impotent prune. So any way you can delay that, most people would trade a year of prune-status for six months more of feeling/looking good status, if it does come to that. It may be that prolonging youthfulness also delays infirmity, that it's a win-win. So you have to get with someone who has anti-aging philosophy. There's a mainstream associations now, The Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine. In big cities they sometimes want to soak you, be your "concierge" for 200+ per month without even seeing you. Some lower cost NP will prescribe T if you explain you were already on it and show them the bottle. I'm seeing a nurse practitioner in Norcal for 60 a visit out of pocket and getting bottles of drops of "bio-identical" (whatever that means) hormones for about $25 per month supply.
