And yes, before I get roasted — I’ve read through most of the other TRT threads on here. Just looking for some current/local feedback and what everybody is actually paying & recommendations these days.

What are y’all realistically paying these days — monthly, labs, visits, testosterone, etc.? Also looking for recommendations for a good clinic or physician in the Lafayette/Acadiana area. Preferably someone who knows what they’re doing and isn’t just running a cash-grab clinic.

I’ve already done the blood work through my primary care physician and had the conversation with him. He just doesn’t seem to have really adopted TRT into his practice or be particularly interested in managing it himself.

I’ve always been pretty conservative when it comes to this stuff and, if anything, probably talked myself out of even considering TRT for longer than I should have. But I think I’m finally at the point where it’s worth seriously looking into.

Not looking to turn into Ronnie Coleman by Christmas or start pinning everything sold on the internet. Just want to approach it conservatively, feel better, get properly monitored, and deal with somebody who actually understands TRT.

So — who are y’all using around Lafayette/Acadiana, what are you paying, and have you been happy with them?

My PCP takes care of mine. I’m in the 200’s. Low T just as dangerous as high

Why such the focus on Laffy? All of this can be done remotely, unless you're afraid of injecting yourself.

The plan is to do home injections.

Open to recommendations for remote- that’s the whole purpose of this inquiry.

How are others doing this? Need the testing & script associated.

You could do one of the online ones to start, like PeterMD.

PrimeBody. They are not the cheapest you can find, but the product has a lot of support out there to back its clean. You just need to signup, pay for the initial bloodwork, and then they will mail you TRT along with the weekly materials needed for at home injections.

So I'm 3 weeks back on TRT after over a year off. My insurance is a high deductible policy that doesn't have any copay on visits or medications until I hit my deductible.

My labs at Labcorb were just under $50
Doctor's appointment (not a wellness clinic, he's an OBGYN who also dabbles in men's health) was $80
10 ML vial of test cyp from Amazon pharmacy was $34 with a Maxor+ pharmacy discount card.


Yearly Cost -
Doctor 2x per year - $160
Test/Needles/syringes - ~$200
Labs 2x per year - $100

I'm paying about $40/month per mine. It was a lot cheaper before I switched insurance plans but I'm saving $5k per year being on the high deductible plan so it's still a win.

If you can't find somebody around there it might be worth driving to Gonzales 1x per year to see my guy. You have to see him in person 1x per year and the other visit can be telemed.
