This is supposed to be a natural precursor hormone, meaning it will help your body boost production of testosterone. It's not an anabolic steroid, so the affects are different, but when used as a nutritional supplement it is supposed to help get your hormone levels up to where they would normally occur naturally.

Not worth buying.

Some insurance companies will cover HRT. If your Doctor or a specialist has prescribed that you do it, most insurance companies will pay, but of course it really depends on who you have etc.

I would change my general physician to someone who is a little bit more open minded.

I dont understand why people feel sketchy about taking blood test then sending away for a prescription. Just about everyone I work with is on some type of medicine. They only see their Doctor 2-3 times a year and mail away for most of their meds, most commonly blood pressure medicine. They go to a lab every so often to get blood work done.
I think people need to quit being so leery and stereotypical towards HRT just because it involves steroids.
