Does anyone know if naturopaths can prescribe HC? Or can only MDs or endocrinologists do that?
Thanks.

Naturopaths, MD's, DO's. Nurse practitioner and PA (both with doc guidance). You might have better luck with DO's or naturopaths than endo's (unless you have obvious Addison's and still they might miss it). If a professional is licensed to prescribe meds, they can prescribe HC.

In Australia NP (Nurse Practitioner) & (Doctor Osteopathy) DO doesnt exist. We have Naturopaths but they cant rx anything. I dont even know what a PA is...but I guess that means we dont have any here either. So we HAVE to have a MD or Endo to get RX meds. In addition ONLY Docs can order Lab Tests no self order Labs here at all.
