I'm wondering how many guys (and girls) here talk to their doctors about their AS use. If you do what do your doctors recommend in terms of maintaining your health, liver functions, etc. IP: Logged |

If you value your health, then you will!! My doc know everything I am, and he runs blood tests, he says he wants me in there very 3-6 months to run checks on my hormonal balance. He dont condone them, but know Im going to use them one way or the other...so he says anyway he can help he will. later, IP: Logged |

Thats cool WCP! I wish I could be that honest with my Dr. and have him do that. I just assume that I'll get a huge lecture that I don't want to hear. LAter, Green IP: Logged |

It all depends on the doc. A professional will not bring the law or morals into it. It should just be the heath care issue. If the guy seems cool tell him. If not, keep going to any doc your insurance covers and find one that is cool. It could save your life. IP: Logged |

My doctor tells me doing tests won't help me. He says that by time they detect something wrong... it'll be too late... that's kinda fucked up, huh? So I gotta get a new doctor... one I can trust. IP: Logged |

I have never told my doc but he knows that I do cause he always lectures me on it and most of the stuff he says is bullshit. ------------------ quote: IP: Logged |

I'm very open with my doctor about AS use. He wouldn't openly support what I'm doing, but stated that it's common for athletes to use and he has multiple patients who use AS. He's very receptive of my needs....I suggest you be open with your doctor as well. IP: Logged |

My doctor is a motormouth, always talking about this and that. I had him speechless for 5 minutes when I told him I had just done a cycle and that I would like a blood test. He just couldn't imagine someone doing something a doctor didn't recommend. He almost put in my medical records as well. IP: Logged |

I talked to my doc about AAS use and he gave me the line about my balls shriveling up and getting prostate cancer. Doc said if I felt I needed some "supplementation" he would prescribe test. patches for 3 mos. I passed on that offer. IP: Logged |

DONT talk with you doctor about your A.S. use. unless you have a serious medical condition that needs to be checked up on. otherwise fuck it, why have a hard copy somewhere in a file stating you use A.S. IP: Logged |

you will have to decide for yourself some doctors will give you a lecture while others will support you and advise you. IP: Logged |
