babysitting the argument in my head
An idiot nurse practitioner employed with a hospital i recently visited inexplicably took me off TRT with no valid reason, without consulting me ever. For years there have been inaccurate medical professional rumor about dangers of TRT. It’s utterly unfounded and it’s good to see the correct information surfacing. I did a review of the modern scientific literature and it matched with the conclusions presented in this program.

The truth about testosterone therapy

Prescriptions for testosterone have tripled in recent years, as some social media fitness influencers claim the hormone is a miracle cure for men. But who really benefits from testosterone therapy? And what are the risks?

wonder how long it will take that idiot NP to get her shit together?
 
Well taking you off hormone replacement should be up to the prescribing physician. Were you being officially given it for an actual deficiency, or were you just going DIY for fitness gains?

PS I'm on an HRT regimen due to hypogonadism associated with a congenital condition. I have to have regular blood work done to monitor my levels, because there are health risks like increased blood pressure and blood clotting with too high levels.

Please don't think this is directed at you TUF.. because it clearly isn't. Fuck it.. Fuck the medical system in the USA.. If you can't agree at least its hopelessly broken and unarguably needs be fixed.. well no reason even talk w me.

It's interesting to note that gender affirming care (while in the US as of late has been focused on trans-folk) also includes what you're going through and likely what @neversickanymore may be being treated for.

Makes me wonder what kinds of changes may be occuring for prescribers with the new federal guidelines on what's considered acceptable, and could be why @neversickanymore is running into this issue.

I'm thinking the new guidelines are certainly effecting patients receiving scheduled substances. Liscenced lucrative providers are intimidated with baseless paranoia their licenses and livelihood may be threatened by even prescribing controlled substances. This is intimidating prescribers to shy away from controlled substance and instead stick with and limit down to the big pharma business plan of medications that require regular doses for a patients life. This in turn requires regular visits to prescribers for life. Every time they review your meds they charge insurance for a med review, even if it was done thirty minutes after the last one and one story up as you were transferred from the ER into the hospital. Broken and a designed financial extortion.. the current medical system uses extortion, that being the threat of removal of medication to demand repeated payments.. broken and dirty.. what else can you say.

Press one for billing. AI will certainly kick the mass majority of health care parasites out.. not sure if that will end up being a good thing.
