GP surprise

ad

So I had my appt with my GP today. I took in my labs and to my surprise he agreed to try some trt on me. He originally wanted to use androgel,but after I addressed my concerns about cost he wrote me a script for test Cyp at 50 MG 2x per week. Although my insurance didn't cover any of this, I am thinking $65 for a 10 mil pharmacy grade vial isn't bad. Any thoughts?

Get on it TEDDYK!

My doctor was thinking Androgel until I told them that "I've been on/off gear for a looooong time and that won't cut it.

We agreed on Cyp and luckily for me the 10ml Vial at 200mg/ml was the script I have been utilizing (mostly) ever since.

I won't discuss dosages for my script but most of us on scripts will have some extra and so long as you don't mind paying a small price for the bottle (depending on insurance etc. coverage) you can end up with a healthy supply should you feel the need to step it up.

One thing to note for those who may also supplement with UGL or "Pharmgrade Online" sources is that when you are traveling anywhere (especially out of country) you will want to use/bring the scripted vials with you.

So even if you decide to buy outside of the script keep those for travel so that "if" you are ever checked you have a legit script of gear on you to maintain your required needs that won't get you into hot water with TSA who then pass you onto LE.

Also, keep your old vials so that you can put compounds of similar likeness (ie: oil based) in them should you decide you cannot leave home without it...a fresh bottle of the legit with an open vial of your "support gear" won't be as much of an alarm if checked ;)

When you walk around looking very much "hypertrophically human" jealous can get the best of any TSA agent who may just pull you out for a random search because their "work wife" was eye-f'king you through the line.

Be safe gents.

Test C was the key for me, Androgel really did not work out. A lot of blood work in the beginning with my urologist, but I have been at 200 mg weekly of Test C for awhile now and very happy with the results. Just had bloods pulled again 2 days ago, and hoping we can now start to spread it out to every 6 months, will find out at my follow up Monday.

$65 isn't bad by any means. That vial and prescription are gold. If you wanted to use UGL or foreign pharma, in the future, for cost savings, you can just transfer to the prescribed vial when traveling and such.

I just filled my last scrip a couple weeks ago, just over $42 per 10ml vial, GoodRX is your friend,........WallyWorld is a ripoff at over $100 for the same vial.

Would that still be safe, sterile?

As long as the vial you are pulling from is sterile.
