When you start taking this stuff do you have to continue to take it the rest of your life? Like do your nuts shut off and you are relying upon injections or whatever to produce testosterone
correct. when you get on TRT you are getting on for life. this isnt a 12 week steroid cycle and you are getting on it because you body doesnt produce enough naturally for a variety of reasons
as far as who to use for this...most of the time a urologist or endo is going to be much more knowledgable that a GP, but it all depends on the education of the doctor and his expierence. sometimes depending on the area you live, a hormone clinic will be the best bet.

Why would you need to see your doctor twice a week?

Weekly injections at a minimum, twice weekly injections preferred. Don't believe anything else you read on here

Is this generally a urologist?
Some primary care providers will do it depending on their training. Urologists and endocrinologists are probably the most reliable for formal training.

My doctors monitor the blood work very closely.

yes, but even then, most are very very behind on modern techniques and practices

You don’t need to check your blood work twice a week for testosterone

Just sayin, I know 2 people that got blood clots in the same area of their body from injections. They both had to switch to pellets.

Rewind.
Why?
Everything I read says slowly remove. A broef adjusemt period, and it returns to pre treatment levels.

Good luck on finding a doctor to help. If you’re borderline 350 or around 300, a lot of doctors (endos and urologists) won’t help you as you are “in range”.
I’m not fully on board with the clinics though they are easy. I’m trying to find a doc that will provide prescription test as it’s covered by insurance and much cheaper. I’ve been looking for a month without success.

My plan is three months on. Four weeks off. Two failed tests in a row with primary, and then he prescribes trt.

Make sure to consider history of prostate cancer in your family. If your dad and brothers have had prostate cancer discuss this with your doctor. Testosterone can fuel prostate cancer.
There is no way in hell I'd take testosterone given my risk factors.

Can you specify “failed”? Did your test # drop?
