One of our Nurse Practitioners, licensed with the College of Registered Nurses of Alberta. You’ll meet them by secure video for your consultation and follow-ups.

Start with our confidential online assessment. If it’s appropriate, we’ll send you a lab requisition for bloodwork and book a virtual consultation with one of our Nurse Practitioners to review your results and decide whether treatment is right for you.

No. You don’t need a referral from your family doctor.

Yes. Bloodwork is needed to safely check your hormone levels, your overall health and whether treatment is right for you. We’ll send you a lab requisition once your assessment has been reviewed.

At any APL laboratory location in Alberta.

Yes. Your assessment, consultation, follow-up care and prescription management are all done virtually, from home.

Your first step is $189. That covers your initial medical assessment, bloodwork and consultation. Ongoing care includes a follow-up assessment every 3 months. Medication is billed separately by our partner pharmacy, and your Nurse Practitioner will go over the full cost with you before you start anything. Our services aren’t covered by Alberta Health Care (AHCIP).

It often is. Many workplace drug plans cover prescribed medication, and our partner pharmacy will contact you about payment and bill your insurance directly.

We’re paid only for our consultation and care services. We don’t earn any money from the medication you’re prescribed, and we have no financial stake in our partner pharmacy.

Then we won’t prescribe testosterone. Your Nurse Practitioner will go through your results with you, talk about other possible causes of your symptoms, and suggest next steps.

Your Nurse Practitioner will create a personalized treatment plan and send your prescription to our partner pharmacy for processing and delivery.

Our partner pharmacy ships your medication and injection supplies directly to your door. They’ll also contact you about payment, insurance billing and how to do your injections.

Like any treatment, testosterone therapy has possible side effects, including a higher red blood cell count, acne, fluid retention and changes in sleep. That’s why we monitor your bloodwork regularly. Your Nurse Practitioner will go over the risks and benefits with you before you decide on anything.

Will it affect my fertility?

It can. Testosterone therapy can lower sperm production. If you may want children in the future, tell us at your first consultation so we can talk about your options.

Not necessarily. Some men stay on treatment long-term, and others stop. If you stop, your levels usually return to where they were before. You can stop at any time, and your Nurse Practitioner will help you do it safely.

Completely confidential. We contact you only the way you choose, and your information is never sold or shared for marketing.
