I am currently on diy, Estrogel & Cypro. The GP is aware of this and have said they can do vitals like live function on blood tests but can’t do hormones as they can’t read the results.

I understand this is false as they are looking at the same ranges at post menopausal women on hrt. I also understand there is significant risks associated with having no dominant sex hormone / inappropriate hormonal levels, which is not something I can find out without blood tests.

I understand there are some templates lying around where I can explain the duty of care to the GP?
