So I have a basic timeline I'm trying to work from, and part of that is that I would like to start HRT in January.  I am a client with Chase Brexton in Columbia Maryland at the moment, and I was wondering if I should schedule blood work before then.  If so, how far in advance should I have that done?

My doctor wanted to see me a few weeks before I started. He examined me first, then ordered the blood work. He didn't prescribe estradiol until I came back a few weeks later.

Can you call the clinic and find out what they suggest?

That's not a bad idea. To the trans*phone!
