I have a bad experience with that. The doctor didn't want to take a hormone test because I am a perfectly fine young lady with no symptoms of unbalanced hormones. He really refused it, kept saying no. And I tried to mention I'm planning to take herbs with a lot of phyto estrogens in it and he was so against it. You shouldn't be taking that, so I didn't dare to talk about NBE. Then I called the lab to do a hormone test seperately and they said I need a doctors approval again. And for some reason I was you know what I'll just do it and see if I get side effects. Cause I don't want to go to another doctor to probably hear the same again.

Sorry to hear you had issues with such a simple request- you're paying for It! My Dr didn't even blink an eye when I asked him.and went right ahead and made it happen.

Ahhh so lucky!!

I wish I could find a doctor like that...Do you think it may be because I (and perhaps others) aren't transitioning and just don't want any implications? Then again, I really wish I could just get them tested...It's as simple as that.
