I dunno. It seems straightforwardly analogous to the fake medical marijuana clinics you see in places where recreational use isn't legal, or the countless online pharmacies with doctors on retainer to prescribe Ozempic and Viagra. It's not how I would design the medical system if I were in charge, but these aren't addictive substances like opioids.

Testosterone induces physical dependency which can be irreversible when taken for prolonged periods.

I don’t think it’s analogous at all to medical marijuana.

Interesting. I'm surprised I didn't know that and have to agree that makes the analogy inapplicable.
