Where and when to get Estradiol tested.

[Guest guest]

Hello,

I am in Atlanta, Georgia. Can anyone reccomend a lab that I can pay out of

pocket to get my Estradiol checked? I need to get this done on my own.

also, should I time the Estradiol test around my testosterone injections?

Thanks,

Curtis
