Starting TRT assessment through CactusMen begins with blood tests to evaluate key health markers. These tests measure your testosterone levels and other health indicators to as a first indicator of your suitability for treatment.
Once blood test results have been reviewed by a clinician, we'll schedule a conversation with our patient care team to share your results and discuss the next steps for starting TRT.
If it looks like you are suitable for TRT treatment, you’ll have the option to join our membership service, CactusMen.
First-time TRT patients
If you are new to TRT in Australia, we’ll conduct a second, more in-depth blood test to ensure all necessary markers are covered.
Once we receive the all-clear on these results, you’ll be invited to book your first TRT treatment consultation with an Australian-licensed partner GP.
note: If your results medically rule you out of treatment, you will receive a full refund of your membership payment.The cost of blood testing will not be refunded as any blood tests are carried out by a third party. Patients will maintain access to any blood results.
Patients transferring from another clinic
Your experience with CactusMen begins with an onboarding pack, followed by a phone or video consultation with an Australian-licensed GP to discuss your symptoms and the best treatment approach.
Any treatments which may be prescribed by your practitioner will be available for purchase through the CactusMen patient portal, and will be shipped discreetly with express, tracked delivery.
Once onboarded and started with TRT, you’ll have regular check-ins with your GP (typically every three months initially) to ensure everything is on track. This will likely involve a blood test review and a consultation to discuss your progress and make any necessary adjustments.
Between scheduled consultations, you’ll have access to our nursing team for any additional support.
