getting a prescription for testosterone patches?

[joe27]

Does anyone here use these? Or the gel?

I'd like to start, but am a little nervous about bringing it up with a doctor. Are testosterone level tests required? Because I'm pretty sure my levels are fine. I just want an extra boost.

Actually, I want to use them against depression. There are times I feel my testosterone levels are high, and it makes me feel relaxed and motivated at the same time. Whereas most of the time I feel sick of life and cranky.

I've been eating lots of estrogen blocking foods like broccoli (which has totally earned its reputation for tasting like shit) and green tea, and it helps. Next I'm going to cut sugar from my diet and start lifting weights. But I still want the patches.

my advice is talk to your Doctor before putting anything in your body.
Specially the cutting out certain food stuff.......sounds dodgy to me unless you know exactly what you're doing.

What am I missing? If his levels are fine there is no reason why he should be getting more testosterone. I could see estrogen if he was transgendered but that’s not the case here. Testosterone is good for maintain stuff like muscle mass, bone density etc. but unless your over 30 and your levels are dropping, which I don’t think is the case with Joe, I don’t see why you’d want extra.

That said if you do want extra testosterone you can buy supplements without going to the doctor. Just go to a GNC, they have a ton of stuff over there that will boost your testosterone levels but be careful as some of those supplements will cause you to test positive for steroids.
