    Soooo how does one go about going onto testosterone in NSW, Australia?
    I live 3hrs inland from Sydney if that matters at all.


    If anyone has any idea, I'd be grateful for the info :slight_smile:

    I have no idea, but your doctor would know. Have you taken this up with them?

    Whatever you do: there is no way of going about going on testosterone without supervised and professional medical help. It is too dangerous to get it on the black market by ordering online or elsewhere.

    It's your body, so don't mess with it!

    Haha yeah no I would never self-medicate. :slight_smile:
    Just curious who I should talk to about it - doctor makes sense but I assumed I'd need to go to a special therapist or something.

    I think you do need to see a special therapist - but the starting point would be to talk about it with your family and with your family doctor - and they can direct you to the right place. Your family doctor will need to be involved in order to properly monitor your health.
