I was on waiting list to see Gordon, but then found an endocrinologist to do STIM test for my pituitary function. Due to the pulsating nature of hormones, the test involves giving insulin to induce hypoglecemia and seeing how hormones respond to this stress and taking blood every 30 min for 4 hours.

This test is 98% accurate when done in conjunction with glucagon stress test. If found deficient in either testetone or growth hormone, they will prescribe TRT or clomid, and GH.

It’s all done by the book and FDA guidelines and really is only way to really know if their is deficiency.
