Dr. James Lin answered

No, I would...: At least, I would review your detailed history of general health, prior GU surgery, existing medical conditions & drug use, lifestyle, pattern of sex life, etc., do physical exam, esp. on testicular size/ consistency, & repeat gonadal blood profile including testosterone, LH, & FSH, before starting TRT. So, ask your treating doctor ....
