So do they just give you three vials? I wouldn't want to run to the pharmacy every month to pick up my trt meds.
No sir, I get 6 1ml Vials each run to the pharmacy. Here is how the math works. My original prescription was .5Ml every 7 days, that works out to 2 weeks per 1ml bottle. So my insurance pays for only a 3 months supply each time, so 12 weeks (84 days) equals 6Ml, so they give me six 1m bottles every 84 days.
Then my doctor and I later agreed I would switch to .4ML every 7 days after my total T labs consistently came back so high. However to keep confusion down on the prescription he left it at .5Ml. I am actually only taking .35Ml and can get 3 shots out of each 1ml bottle since they are slightly overfilled. That has my total T around 800 which is great for me even at .35Ml every 7 days.
So at the end of 3 months I have over 1 1/2 bottles left which is great because CVS will not allow a refill sooner than 3 days then half the time they are out and its 3-5 days before they get any in. By having some left over by the prescription being .5 with me only taking .35 I don't miss a shot on time.
My last prescription my doctor really helped me out a lot after discussing all of this with him. He made it for 12ML with 1 refill or a total of 24ML. at .5Ml every week that's a 1 year prescription so I don't have any issues getting my medicine refilled now with all the CVS hassles. I have plenty left over after every 3 months supply to carry me over if CVS is OUT of meds. My dr really helped me here.
I also had problems with CVS getting my syringes. What a debacle that was. I got that solved also. Now no problems getting my meds or syringes. I am 18 months into TRT and loving it.
Yes I am only doing .35Ml or 70mg every 7 days. NO HCG ever and no AI ever. I have no ball shrinkage, nothing. I go for my 6 months labs this Wednesday.
TRT has been simply amazing for me. I am classic case of less is more with TRT.
