Double Standards in Off Label Prescription Writing

Doctors are being told they cant use Ivermectin or HCQ at many practices around the country. These exact same places will give your 16 year old daughter testosterone if she feels like she is supposed to be a man. When was testosterone trialed and approved for sex change therapy in adolescent females? Its NOT, its all off label prescriptions.

That particularly pisses me off as an almost 40 year old guy who works out daily and has had many serious injuries, but I cant get testosterone from my doctor because that would not be what it is approved for. I have never taken anything like that, but if my doctor was allowed to prescribe it I would take safe doses administered by a doctor. I cannot get it legally through TRT because I have very high testosterone naturally. If I want T the best way to get it is probably to send a teenage girl with pink hair into a planned parenthood and tell them she wants a penis. Doesn't even need parental consent some places.

But dont worry, we're safe from the dangers of HCQ and Ivermectin. FDA has it all under control. What are the long term effects of giving a 16 year old girls testosterone again?

Pretending these people have our best interests in mind was your first mistake.

These are not the only double standards. I was giving birth and was told no cesareans that fast, but in the meantime, a pregnant doctor working there but on leave, I was later told, got a pre-planned cesarean.

My uncle was waiting in the maternal ward's waiting room and spoke to another man, who was the husband of that doctor. He later told me after I told him how it all went down, that what the nurse said can't be true, because he just spoke to the husband of a doctor that works here, got a cesarean around the time I started begging for it. Because that's the time my uncle hit the place.

I came in at 5am in the morning! 10pm I started begging but was just laughed at "we don't do those that fast!" So they gave the doctor higher priority even though I was in labor for 18 hours already or the midwife was on a personal crusade against premature cesareans but the doctor in the morning was furious at her.

I looked in her eyes when they shoved out the bed to the elevator at 11am the next day (!) and said to her if my child dies, it's 100% her fault because I begged you for this yesterday evening but you just laughed at me.

So if you're not a doctor, cesarean is bad or not as important for you.

Gee whiz! Double standards? You don't say?

Double standards seem to be the order of the day.

I used to feel angry about not getting medical marijuana in SA - especially as an HIV-patient - although that's now a moot point (since all adults can have, and grow a certain amount at home).

Although I've been training for about 5 years, I've never been interested in steroids, and it's especially not advised if you're immune compromised.

However, I did take the natural "testosterone boosters" (even before lock-down), usually a mixture of mainly zinc and a herb called Tribulus Terrestris.
Not sure if it helped for any muscles (I can't complain though), but apparently the zinc was also good as an anti-viral/immune-booster.

When the standard is what makes big pharma rich, tyrannical leaders more authorization, media pushing more doom porn and how do we depopulate the planet? Restricting cheep, safe and effective medications during a state of emergency for a pandemic is a good start.

The media and medical community have been warned by the government to not promote these medication options. Doctors here in Australia have been arrested and lost there job for doing so. This is standard during a war. If the aim was to fight covid then these medications would be released to those that want it. So as those writing up these policies are not fighting covid, just what are they fighting?
