: Hi,
: How successful have any of you been in getting doctors to
: prescribe anabolics for you? Has anyone tried the approach
: of finding a doctor that is willing to supply anabolics as
: a "male hormone replacement therapy"? If so, feel free
: to supply the doctors name. ;-)

Since the controlling of anabolics, Doctors will rarely ever prescribe them for weight gain. According to the FDA this is an illegal treatment and a doctor can be held accountable for handing out juice scripts like this. Oxandrin (re-manufactured Anavar) however, is gaining acceptance among doctors as a safe therapy for HIV and related weight loss. In fact, an approved use of Oxandrin is for failure to maintain a normal weight for no apparent reason/illness. Under this guideline a doctor could prescribe it if he was convinced you were in need (health wise) of gaining weight. A 220 pound bodybuilder obviously does not qualify. But if you are genertically on the thinner side, and it is not apparent to the world at large that your all juiced, you may be able to get away with this. Keep in mind though, that it costs about $700 a month (180 tabs/script) they are only 2.5 mg so you need a shitload (8-10 a day) and Anavar isn't a killer anabolic anyway. Safe, mildly effective, but not like a bottle of test or a hand-full of dbols. Otherwise the gov't has effectively taken us from the safety of our doctors and FDA regulated products.
