are you back on drugs or something?

Guy at work had testicular cancer and had to have both his boys removed. He goes every other week for injections. Toward the end of the two weeks he’s noticiblely slower. If your T level is low and nothing else has worked I’d highly recommend it.

Believe he goes to the Urologist for it. If you’re in BR go see Stephen Vick.

Men die every day, and suffer from untreated medical issues by the millions



and your stats are way wrong:

Birth Rate

Death Rate

• 19 births/1,000 population • 8 deaths/1,000 population
• 131.4 million births per year • 55.3 million people die each year
• 360,000 births per day • 151,600 people die each day
• 15,000 births each hour • 6,316 people die each hour

Your reading comprehension sucks. You proved one of his two assertions --- "men die every day." You whiffed on the other --- "and suffer from untreated medical issues by the millions."

Millions of medical issues, not deaths.

My blood was tested and found to be low (and my insurance paid for this test). The MD wanted to put me on pellets for $750 twice a year. I was told its that much because "your insurance doesn't cover it."

I went and looked at my policy and found it does cover it. When i brought that to the attention of the MD, they were shocked because "no one's insurance has ever covered it." All it took was under a certain level on two blood tests. My first test was way below that level (I forget what it was.).

A couple days later, MD contacted me and said they cant use my insurance for it because they made a deal with Bio T or whatever company that they wouldnt file it under insurance in order for the clinic to be a preferred provider.

This annoyed me enough to say, "Thanks, but no thanks." I'd like to try it and hear good things from guys my age, but haven't followed up with it by going to a different MD. The situation still annoys the hell out of me. I cant understand how this is a legit things for an MD office to do.

Did you check with your insurance company to see if you can pay and then file the claim directly?

This! I workout after work daily. I hit the weights, sometimes I'll do some HIIT. I pack my gym bag every night and go straight to the gym after work. It is a healthy habit along with eating healthy.

Mine was 38, I think I was transitioning into a female
