Anyone have thoughts on the at home hormone tests you can buy online? I have a high deductible and a lot of those tests are cheaper than my out of pocket cost through insurance.

I didn’t even know they existed… my guess is that your doctor might not trust the results, and you’d end up having them done through their lab anyway. High deductible insurance sucks.

It does. $10k out of pocket.
