Very Confused with Medical Help!!!

[Guest guest]

Hello Friends.

I have been under the care of my endo for 5 years. I have idiopathic

hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. Unfortunately my endo knows more about

diabetics and normal stuff than hypogonadism. I am really angry that I had

to learn about testosterone implants from this board (which was great thank

you) and not my ENDO.

I am confused on what to do: Should I find REPRODUCTIVE ENDO??? Would they

know treating hypogonadism better? or should I find a UROLOGIST??

If You know of a good medical provider in NEW JERSEY/NEW YORK area please

please Let me know.

Thanks so much to you all.

If gonadotrophins are low, you should have a Clomid or hCG stimulation

test. Have you had prolactin measured? If it is elevated, a pituitary

MRI is warranted.

It really doesn't matter if you see a repro endo, diabetes specialist,

urologist, internist or a GP. You need to see someone experienced in

treating men with hypogonadism.

If you can afford it, Dr. Shippen's practice is in Reading, PA. He is

the well known author of " The Testosterone Syndrome " . There have been

a couple of his patients who post here.

Hi,

Been receiving TRT for more than 10 years beginning in N. Bergen NJ

with Dr. Sipi, now deceased.

As a result of my exposure to hormone pellets thru my wife's visit

there for hormone pellets she found men were also been treated by Dr.

Sipi for low T with testosterone pellets.

In discussions with Dr. Sipi I found out about the history of hormone

therapy that began with Dr. Greenblatt of Augusta GA who treated

andropause. There were more than 100 also trained at that school who

are now in their 70's or deceased. Unfortunately there are none of

these doctors in the NE US.

I now travel down to visit my son in Cary, NC every 4 months and then

drive on to Augusta the next day for new pellets. Dr. R. Don Gambrell

is in the old office of Dr. Greenblatt:

Reproductive Endocrinologists, PC

903 15th Street

Augusta, GA 30910

(706) 724-8878

Many of his patients fly in from great distances every 4 months for

their new pellets. I heard from D. Sipi that many of those in

Hollywood found out the benefits early and were patients of those

trained by Dr. Greenblatt from the 70's on.

Dr. Eugene Shippen of Reading, PA wrote " The Testosterone Syndrome "

which is a very good primer on hormone therapy outlining the benefits

of high normal testosterone. His information is vital for the patient

to understand when he is receiving poor treatment.

I'm sure there are more books but the two doctors above are worth

traveling to on a 3 day vacation.

As I'm on medicare most of my visit is covered in that area. It is not

covered in other areas of the nation.

Hope you can find a way to get appointments with one of the above.
