question from a user
How do you handle someone that’s already on TRT? I’m pretty much dialed in (been on TRT for 4-5 years now) so of course I’m not going to have low test. I have labs from before I started with low levels. Do you just take current labs and dosing into consideration to start someone on TRT?
AlphaMD's Answer
Yes, we accept transfer of patients. We do not require repeat lab testing with proof of your current regimen (showing us you are currently on TRT).
To expand on this as another provider - We tend to keep your dose the same if you're dialed in. Current Rx + and labs you might have from before TRT are greatly appreciated. We don't want to fix something that's not broken.
