Dr. Geller,
Well for starters, I live in a very small town, not near a big city. I
am seeing a very good OB/GYN that I travel 1 hour 1/2 to see. How would
I find one close to me? I was just wondering if I can go off of my
Testosterone without weaning myself off. If I can abruptly stop it
without major side effects.
Thanks for your response.
