I realize there's probably already a thread for this, but I couldn't find one and I'd really like to have this question answered.
I know that the prices will vary from place to place, as well as from person to person, depending on dosage and whether you're taking shots, gel, ect. but I was just wondering how much most of you pay for testosterone per month? I'm waiting to get into an endo, and I currently don't have any information about pricing. I don't have insurance, and I live in Canada. I have heard that injections are the cheapest, so that is most likely the route I will be taking.
I'd like to hear from anyone, but it would be especially helpful if you were from Canada! Thanks guys.

Hey. I have Kaiser in California and my insurance covers it. If I go there for bi-weekly injections with the nurse, they use their supply so it's free. If I want to do it myself, there is a co-pay at the pharmacy. I opted to do it at home and paid 43 bucks which included the needles. I just started so the prescribed amount is low, meaning I can probably get about 40 injections out of this vile, but that dosage will double , which willdouble the cost as well. I don't know how much it is normally.
