To get Testosterone Replacement Therapy from a legitimate medical clinic, you must first be diagnosed with low testosterone.
Unfortunately, some men use testosterone illegally in a mistaken belief that it can help them bulk up or otherwise improve athletic or sexual performance. However, doing so is not only against the law, but it can also be quite hazardous to your health.
Testosterone is an anabolic steroid and, therefore, a controlled substance. While it has many medical benefits, it is classified as a “Schedule III” medication, and therefore can never be used legally without a prescription and proper medical supervision.
At Nexel Medical, we cannot emphasize enough that it’s crucial to have your testosterone levels confirmed through hormone blood testing and receive a proper diagnosis of low testosterone (low T) before you can obtain a prescription for TRT therapy.
The good news is that we make the entire process, from checking the testosterone levels in your blood to getting prescribed TRT to purchasing your testosterone injections, smooth and easy!
TRT, or testosterone replacement therapy, is designed to treat men who have been diagnosed with low testosterone (low T)—a condition medically known as hypogonadism.
While there are a variety of possible causes, the most common reason men experience low T is the natural decline in hormone production that begins after age 20. Symptoms may be mild at first but tend to become more pronounced over time.
Patients who are properly diagnosed and begin TRT can expect noticeable improvements, though results don’t happen overnight. Most TRT plans are prescribed for an initial period of at least six months, during which time the benefits gradually build. By the end of the treatment cycle, many men report significant relief or even complete resolution of age-related low testosterone symptoms.
A widely cited 2011 study outlines the typical TRT timeline: improvements in sexual desire may begin after three weeks and level off around the six-week mark. Changes in sexual performance can take several months. Mood, energy, and overall quality of life often begin to improve within 3–6 weeks, with full effects seen in the 4–7 month range.
As more men explore treatment options for low T, one of the most common questions we hear is: how can I legally get a testosterone prescription?
Let’s be clear—there’s no way to legally obtain testosterone without a prescription. Every version of TRT, from brand-name to generic, gel to injectable, must be prescribed by a licensed medical professional. Any online vendor offering testosterone without a prescription is not only violating the law but is likely selling counterfeit, unsafe, or impure products.
There’s no benefit—and a lot of risk—in trying to bypass the system. Fortunately, getting a prescription for TRT through Nexel Medical is straightforward. We start with a medical consultation, which can often be done virtually. If your symptoms and health history suggest possible low testosterone, the next step is a blood test. Should your lab results confirm a deficiency, your physician will tailor a treatment plan specific to your needs, including the proper dosage and delivery method of TRT.
It is not complicated to get a prescription from us online. It only takes Five Simple Steps.
A diagnosis starts with getting to know the symptoms of low T. The most common signs of hypogonadism include:
Testosterone can be administered in several ways, such as testosterone pellets, testosterone patches, topical creams, or oral testosterone. However, injections are widely considered the most effective and versatile option.
With injections, the hormone is delivered directly into your system for faster, more consistent absorption. In contrast, topical treatments like creams, gels, or patches often deliver less predictable results and come with added risks of hormone transfer to others through skin contact or clothing.
Injectable testosterone also offers more flexibility when it comes to adjusting dosage or switching brands if needed—something not easily done with topical formulations.
For men diagnosed with Testosterone Deficiency Syndrome, TRT therapy can provide the following benefits:
These benefits, particularly the ones relating to strength, energy, and erectile dysfunction, are enhanced by our unique approach to TRT that also includes fitness counseling and lifestyle changes.
Testosterone therapy, especially testosterone shots like Depo-Testosterone, has been used safely since the 1950s. Decades of clinical use have shown it to be both effective and generally well-tolerated.
That said, side effects can occur. The most frequently reported issue is mild discomfort at the injection site, which is often avoidable with proper technique and rotating the injection area. Serious complications are rare and typically manageable through dose adjustments and close monitoring.
That’s why working with a trusted provider like Nexel Medical is critical. We ensure that your hormone replacement therapy is not only effective but also safe—every step of the way.
If you’ve already been diagnosed and have a valid prescription, you can legally purchase testosterone online—provided you’re buying from a legitimate, licensed provider like Nexel Medical.
However, never trust any website that offers TRT injections without requiring a prescription. These products are likely counterfeit and potentially harmful. Even if they contain real testosterone, using them without medical oversight is dangerous and illegal.
Testosterone is a powerful hormone that should only be used under strict clinical supervision. Misuse can result in serious health risks—and, in some cases, irreversible damage.
Yes, getting TRT online can be both safe and legal, but only if done through a fully accredited and compliant telemedicine provider like Nexel Medical.
Unfortunately, many online vendors skirt regulations, selling low-quality or fake products. Even if you already have a prescription, buying from unverified sources puts your health and safety at risk.
Nexel Medical adheres to all regulations regarding the legal prescription and distribution of testosterone online. We follow a strict protocol that includes:
Trying to cut corners on the cost of testosterone can have life-altering consequences. Never purchase TRT from unlicensed sources or without a prescription—it’s not only illegal, but also potentially lethal.

Frequently Asked Questions: How to Legally Obtain a Prescription for TRT
1. How do I start the process of getting a TRT prescription?
To begin legally obtaining a prescription for testosterone therapy, you need to consult with a licensed healthcare provider—either in person or via telemedicine. At Nexel Medical, we offer secure virtual consultations where a provider will review your symptoms, medical history, and overall health. If low testosterone is suspected, we’ll schedule lab testing to confirm your hormone levels.
2. What kind of lab tests are required for TRT?
Before prescribing androgen replacement therapy, your provider will order a blood test that typically includes a total testosterone test, a free testosterone test, and other related markers like LH, FSH, SHBG, and estradiol. These results help determine whether you have clinically low T and guide the development of your personalized treatment plan. Your doctor may also suggest a bone density scan and PSA tests.
3. Can I get a testosterone prescription without lab work?
No. Blood testing is required by law and is essential to safely and accurately diagnose low testosterone. Prescribing TRT without verifying hormone levels is not only unsafe—it’s also illegal. Nexel Medical ensures all lab testing is performed and reviewed before any prescription is written.
4. Is telemedicine a legal way to get a TRT prescription?
Yes, telemedicine is a legal and secure method for obtaining a TRT prescription—provided the clinic is properly licensed and compliant with state and federal laws. Nexel Medical meets all requirements for telehealth consultations and prescriptions and ensures a legitimate doctor-patient relationship is established before initiating treatment.
5. How quickly can I begin TRT after receiving a prescription?
Once your blood work confirms low testosterone and your doctor determines that TRT is right for you, you can begin therapy fairly quickly. In most cases, prescriptions can be filled and shipped within a few days. Nexel Medical will coordinate every step, from your diagnosis to the fast, secure delivery of your testosterone injections.
