Exactly. My wife just chuckles at this point. Makes the root look a lil bigger though
I’m complete 1000% DONE with having kids so fertility is not a concern at all.

Same, but dallastiger is 44 and may not be done yet - didn't have mine until I was 50.

He can add in HCG to keep him plums plump and fertile.

good point, but HCG is dramatically more expensive than testC ... haven't checked it through UGLs through

Get on boron ~12-15mg in the morning, need to get shgb down and free test up, everything else is fine
777, did some research on Boron and its very promising but a lot of people say it only help for a week or two and then stops and the recommend cycling. Any feedback on that? Also, I noticed most people took 3-10mg. 12-15 seems high

What say anyone about any of this?
What about L-Carnitine?

So I plotted it out for you. Here’s the difference between once a week vs. every 3.5 days.

What is the out of pocket cost for all of this? W/ without using insurance?

Not sure what your MD’s charge In office, mine is covered my BCBS. But you can use online services like TRT nation for around $100-200 month I believe.

If you can get your normal doctor to prescribe it then for the visits it's just the visit and about $50-$75 a year for the labs. A vial of test (lasts me three months) is around $100 via Amazon pharmacy w/o insurance. Luckily my BCBS covers it so it's $10 since Amazon states the vial is a 28 day supply. It was $30 at CVS. It's about $30 for a years worth of needles/syringes.

FYI, GoodRx Is usually cheaper than this fricking trash that we call insurance these days. Around $50 for a 3 month supply.
And about half of that if you can find a good UGL source.

Same here, good to know. I'm considering jumping on to my wife's health insurance and I haven't looked in to if my test would be covered or not under it. Good to know there are options.

I use good RX for all my stuff. My deductible is 4k
I got a 90 day supply of Adderall XR 15mg last week for $26 at Walgreens Good RX. It was $212 with insurance. Such a scam
Also at my yearly physical my doc always freezes a few spots off. Sometimes some have to be cut out. It’s always around $600 for that with labs. He said I can pay cash no insurance for $75. I told him “why are you just telling me this?”
