Question 1

What happens during a One-Off Doctor Consultation?

Accepted Answer

During your consultation, you’ll have the opportunity to talk to a doctor about the results of a Numan blood test or any of the conditions we treat at Numan*. The doctor can give you one-to-one guidance and recommend specific treatments for your health based on your discussion. The doctor can also advise you on how to get the most out of any medication you’re taking to treat these conditions.

They’re also able to offer lifestyle advice to complement your treatments if necessary. For example, if you want advice about how to treat ED, they might suggest lifestyle changes like exercising regularly or reducing alcohol intake to help reduce your symptoms.

Should the doctor be unable to answer your health queries over the phone, or if you require further medical attention that can only be given in person, they can signpost you to a service where you can get the support you need.

*Please note that the doctor will only be able to give direct advice and support for the conditions we treat at Numan (including ED, premature ejaculation, and hair loss, etc).

Question 2

Why should I have a doctor consultation?

Accepted Answer

There are many reasons why you might choose to have a One-Off Doctor Consultation. For example, you may want to speak to a doctor to get reliable advice about how to treat erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, or hair loss. You might also want to speak to a doctor over the phone to:

Learn how to get the most out of your medication*.

Change medication if you feel like your current medication isn’t working as well as you thought it would.

Talk about your health comfortably and freely without needing to see a doctor face-to-face.

Discuss your Numan blood test results in more detail.

Doctor Consultations are also a great way to have your health questions answered quickly without waiting long periods for an in-person appointment at a doctor’s surgery.

*Please note that the doctor will only be able to give direct advice and support for the conditions we treat at Numan (e.g. erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, hair loss, etc.). Therefore, any advice given about medication will be limited to the medicines used to treat these conditions. The doctor will not be able to write you a prescription for any medication.

Question 3

Question 4

*Please note that the doctor will only be able to give direct advice and support for the conditions we treat at Numan (e.g. erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, hair loss, etc.).

Question 6

Naturally, conversation may turn to general health at times and we encourage you to be as open as possible with the doctor so they can help you to the best of their ability.
