Among the eight thousand things that annoy me is people self prescribing drugs and using the commonly used medical term to justify it even though there is a very good chance that the dosage is well in excess of what is required to fulfill the clinical diagnosis and prescribed amount.
No one who legitimately needs TRT self medicates and the R part doesn't mean "whatever cruise/blast cycle I decided I need from extensive research on the body building sites couple with peer reviewed advice from the guy who sold me liver tablets in the carpark of the hungry jacks"

So what are the other 7,999 things that annoy you?
I understand your point of view mate and from what I´ve read I´d tend to agree. Many people seem to be cruising on low dose test cycles and refer to it as ´TRT. My T was boarder line low and I believe it was the under the threshold to get it prescribed under the national health service. However it is still a very lengthy and drawn out process.

I might start a thread
How long are you travelling?
Is there a friendly country that will prescribe and allow you to use that prescription elsewhere?
You are correct in that many will use well in excess of whats required.
I feel good on about 200mg test pw, and this is double what many people use for trt. I do like the feeling of test though and i don't think 200mg pw is asking for trouble, whereas if i did say 500-750mg pw for ten years straight well then this may have long term impacts on health. I'm not a doctor, so my expertise only goes so far. Though after talking to countless doctors about steroids it appears their expertise don't go anywhere near as far as mine unfortunately and i come out looking like an expert compared to the average doctor. I have never seen an endo though, maybe in the future i will.
Yeah 200mg pw would be too much for me but we are all different and respond differently.
I´m guessing you have to take an AI to keep your E2 in check at that dose, but I could be wrong?
I'm still playing around with doses and compounds. For trt purposes i've used Test Prop, Enanthate, Cyp, Undercanoate, Decanoate, TNE, Sus250 all for cycles and just basic cruising. Even cruised on orals for short periods of time, using either dbol or tbol. I prefer tbol to dbol as it still gives enough estrogen conversion to make you feel normal but not so much that your bp increases too high as can happen very easily with dbol.
As for an AI, i havn't used AIs in months now. I switched from low dosed Aromasin to DIM and Resveratrol ages ago and they do all i need them to do. I also feel much more comfortable running otc supps compared to running AIs all year round. Unless i'm using massive doses, AIs just aren't needed.
Interesting mate. Yes, I´m also not keen on running an AI year round, and believe its not necessary with conservative TRT dosing.
One of the TRT clinics got back to me and said they would be able to provide a prescription letter. I would however need an initial consultation which is very pricey (but I guess worth it in my situation) I still need to check they are able to provide me the testosterone to administer myself as currently I use a UG lab, I´m guessing customs would not like this, even with a prescription? It probably also has to tie in exactly with the prescription letter, so I will probably need to get sustanon or something similar. Anyway...it seems like progress.
