I greatly appreciate your response, as to where I am, I live in Indianapolis, indiana. By providers, do you mean a clinic/pharmacy? I'm looking into going to a clinic called "my bio". But it sounds like gel/cream would be significantly cheaper from them, and Im beginning to think I may want injectable instead.

If your insurance covers gel, then it is a definite option, however if it doesn’t, then injectable T would be the best option (without insurance Androgel costs around 3,600.00 every six months).

By providers, I mean doctors and mental health therapists. If My Bio works with transgender clients, great! Ask for a free consult before making any decisions.

Here are potentially some other doctors who would be helpful (I found them on the Gay, Lesbian Medical Association (GLMA) website).
