TRT Consent
DudeMeds LLC
INFORMED CONSENT FOR TESTOSTERONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY
Effective Date: January 1, 2024
THIS NOTICE DESCRIBES OUR INFORMED CONSENT FOR TESTOSTERONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY. PLEASE REVIEW IT CAREFULLY.
1. Consent to Treatment
You consent to receive Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) through DudeMeds LLC, including services provided by any licensed clinical provider affiliated with DudeMeds LLC. You understand that TRT may be administered via injection, oral formulation, gel, or implantable pellet.
2. Risks and Side Effects
You acknowledge that TRT, while effective for many, carries potential risks and side effects, which have been explained to you. These may include, but are not limited to, gynecomastia (breast tissue growth), acne, fluid retention, increased estrogen levels, and other hormone fluctuations.
You understand TRT can affect fertility by suppressing LH and FSH levels, and may not be appropriate for those actively trying to conceive. Liver inflammation and damage are potential risks, and monitoring will occur as clinically necessary.
3. Monitoring and Responsibilities
You agree to undergo periodic blood testing during your treatment to monitor testosterone levels, red blood cell count, PSA levels, cholesterol, and liver enzymes. You are responsible for adhering to lab schedules and notifying your provider of any new symptoms or concerns.
You acknowledge that treatment outcomes are not guaranteed, and that stopping TRT may result in a return or worsening of symptoms.
4. Lifestyle Considerations
You understand that TRT is most effective when combined with healthy lifestyle practices such as regular exercise, a balanced diet, smoking cessation, and moderation of alcohol intake.
5. Medical History and Provider Discretion
You affirm that you have accurately disclosed your complete medical, surgical, and family history, and any other relevant health information.
You understand that all medications prescribed through DudeMeds, including testosterone and adjunctive medications such as anastrozole (an aromatase inhibitor), are issued only if your provider determines they are clinically appropriate based on your individual case. Your provider will use their professional judgment and lab results to determine the appropriate treatment plan.
6. Commit Kit Pricing Terms and Refund Policy
By purchasing a DudeMeds All-Inclusive Commit Kit, you gain access to a bundled set of services, including: medical consultation, laboratory testing, provider evaluation, diagnostic review, technology access, and fulfillment support. The pricing is all-inclusive, regardless of which medications are ultimately prescribed—if any.
For example, medications such as an aromatase inhibitor (e.g., anastrozole) may only be included if clinically appropriate as determined by your licensed provider. Medication decisions are based on your labs, medical history, and provider judgment.
Refunds will be granted in full only if you do not clinically qualify for treatment based on your lab results and provider evaluation.
If you are clinically eligible but choose not to proceed with treatment after completing the lab test and provider consultation, your case will be reviewed individually. Any refund provided will be at the sole discretion of DudeMeds, as costs have been incurred for laboratory testing, diagnostic review, medical services, and technology access.
In all cases, no refund, credit, or discount will be issued due to a medication not being prescribed, if the medication is not clinically warranted. If any false, misleading, or incomplete information is provided during your intake—such as inaccurate age or undisclosed medical history—DudeMeds reserves the right to deny treatment. In these cases, refunds are not guaranteed and will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis at the sole discretion of DudeMeds LLC.
7. Final Acknowledgment
By continuing, you confirm that you have read and understood this Informed Consent in full. You acknowledge that you have had the opportunity to ask questions, and that all questions have been answered to your satisfaction. You consent to treatment with Testosterone Replacement Therapy as determined appropriate by your licensed provider through DudeMeds LLC.
