Most clinics will "optimize" you, which even if you're not out of range low they'll top it off so you're pressing top of the range. Think of it like a doctor's note that let you modify exhaust on a tractor legally. Basically tweak performance up a bit

Women can buy a mega dose pill of female hormones in Plan B with no Rx. Get caught with testosterone and no Rx... you're a felon.

I don't know. I haven't needed supplemental testosterone so far. Maybe once I get older?

I live in Mexico. It's OTC.

Why tf should an adult need an Rx for a boner pill when we can buy alcohol, tobacco, sugar, massive SUVs and firearms with just an ID! Maximum Liberty!

I wish I could give you a solid answer but to be honest. Nobody could really say anything legally. You have a prescription. But... just as it's been pointed out DOT my see the needles and give you a hard time. That being said. Nobody has ever spent that long looking in my bunk. And my prescription has never even came up. So... your mileage may vary. But so far I've got a few years on and never had a problem. After awhile when you realize what a vial of Testosterone/HCG and any AI you might need costs and that you can order your own blood work and just how much you could be saving by doing so.... Then you might run into problems.

DOT:

Department Of Transportation

A department of the federal executive branch responsible for the national highways and for railroad and airline safety. It also manages Amtrak, the national railroad system, and the Coast Guard.

State and Federal DOT Officers are responsible for commercial vehicle enforcement. "The truck police" you could call them.

I'm only paying about $330 for 10 weeks of test cyp @ 200mg a week, HCG and arimidex plus a $70 or so bloodwork every few months.

UGL is cheaper, sure but in no way would I be willing to risk the legal penalties given how stupid steroid laws are in the US. They treat it like heroin...but a woman can go get a giant ball of hormones(Plan B) over the counter.

I will always make sure I've got the Rx for the test, the Rx for the pins, HCG and arimidex and all the original containers once I'm driving because I'll be damned if some yahoo cop in some speed trap is sending me away for years cause he has a hard on for "drugs"

No, there’s not really any solid evidence that it causes an increased risk of cancer. Cited below. Only posting 2 but there are a bunch of studies out there

Morgentaler A. Testosterone replacement therapy and prostate cancer. Urol Clin North Am. 2007 Nov;34(4):555-63, vii. doi: 10.1016/j.ucl.2007.08.002. PMID: 17983895.

Michaud JE, Billups KL, Partin AW. Testosterone and prostate cancer: an evidence-based review of pathogenesis and oncologic risk. Ther Adv Urol. 2015 Dec;7(6):378-87. doi: 10.1177/1756287215597633. PMID: 26622322; PMCID: PMC4647137.

To answer your 2nd question: the main difference between “TRT” and “steroids” is the amount of testosterone used. TRT, if used as designed, is usually a much lower “therapeutic” dose to treat symptoms of low testosterone. Whereas “steroids” are used in much higher and potentially dangerous amounts to achieve bigger muscles etc. Bodybuilding stuff

Isn't TRT associated with very high cancer rates? Also, what is the difference between that and steroids? Just curious.
