    APS FDA Inspection Report

    Here is a recent inspection report from the FDA for APS pharmacy. Seems like they have a sink in the wrong place and had a vile not listed for office use only. Very minor stuff, so I see that as good. Just wanted to share...

    How does trt affect your relationships?

    Relationships have gotten much better. I was very depressed and pity doesn't make very strong relationships. Now, I have better outlook, I'm more confident, and even though things are great yet, I am more assertive and my wife seems to respect me more. I might be a bit more reactive, but I...

    TRT and cialis not quite cutting it

    Yeah, it could be libido...I'm interested but then it just kinda fades away. My last estradiol was 24.7, and as far as things out of normal, Thyroid is a bit high (5.8) and my lipids are never correct (low HDl, high Ldl). You reminded me that I have been forgetting to take fish oil!

    Ask The Urologist Anything (Dr Michael Rotman)

    I'm 41 and started TRT a few months ago. In the past year I saw three urologists. One did a prostate exam and said I had a slightly enlarged prostate. The others said an exam wasn't even necessary because of my age. A bit confused by the differences in approach and what if any prostate...
