When I was researching TRT in the UK I noticed there was a lot of confusion about the NHS’ policies, inconsistencies etc.

I found what appears to be their internal policy document, including requisite levels for TRT consideration: www.nnuh.nhs.uk/publication/download/adult-testosterone-replacement-and-monitoring-jcg0043-v2-1/
