The expiration date of my bottle of testosterone is October 20th but I'm SURE I will run out of testosterone by late august/early september... I have 1 refill left. When I call them in August will they send me my refill or will they make me wait a certain amount of time? I ordered the bottle I have now in May. Thanks!

This has continuously confused me as well. My prescription from them always seems to expire while I should still have one or two more shots out of it. I'd say to just give them a call, they are pretty good about answering questions for their customers. I called a few months ago to refill Bianca's E and at that time they told me I was able to refill my T as well.... yet I still had at least two months worth in my vial.  :-\

Has anyone else noticed weird time frame issues with them, like T expiring before the vial would be done, or seeming to run out significantly before or after the pharmacy says it's time for your refill?

I'm really hoping that they'll send me my prescription. I mean, they have to, right? I't's not like it'll be ridiculously early. I'm getting scared lol. I'm pretty sure I'm going to run out of testosterone before the expiration date. They also put the wrong dose per injection on my prescription. My doctor told me a larger dose. ahhhh!

If they give you any problems have your doctor call in the refill for you and correct the dosage error. They won't deny you if the doctor's office speaks with them to clear it.

TOS, it sounds like you're confusing the expiration date of the actual medicine with the earliest date they will refill your scrip. The expiration date just tells you how long the T is good for.

As long as you're not injecting more than you're supposed to, you should have no trouble getting a refill well before you actually need to start the new vial.

With that said, Strohecker's does sometimes short-date their T, as Cowboi has said. So you wind up sending them a scrip on, say, the first of January, and it's supposed to last you for, say, six months--but the expiration date is March 31st. Technically, you're not supposed to use the T after that date, yet you still have three months to go and three months' worth of injections in the vial. If this ever happens to you, send them an e-mail explaining that they short-dated your vial, and your T is going to expire too soon. They'll send out another vial so that you don't run short.

(Oh, and thanks to the guys who responded a few months ago when I posted a query about the short-dating.)

P.S. Or maybe the date you mean is the LAST date they will fill the scrip--either way, you should be fine.
