Who has tried testosterone gel? Any positive effects?

[Dog-Slime]

My choice was a 200mg shot at the doctors office every 3 weeks or Testosterone Gel, after I explained to the Nurse practitioner how stupid that was, I left with testosterone gel 1.62%

The bottle says:
*Each actuation delivers 1.25g of gel
Alcohol 72.22% v/v

Contains; Testosterone, USP carbopol 980, ethyl alcohol, isopropyl myrisate, purified water and sodium hydroxide.

Store at 20 to 25 C (68-77 F)


I take 3 pumps applied to shoulders when I get out the shower. Its dry by the time I get some food down and/or other morning rituals take place.

Last blood draw was over 900

I have read that applying moisturizing lotion beforehand can increase absorption but you have to let it dry and then do the gel and that's too much for me: therefore I use a moisturizing soap and hope it works the same way

load insulin pins and just change the needle ?

Back load the insulin pin and use a fresh new one every time. I had used 1.5" deep IM pins for years and switched over to 29 g 1/2" insulin pins shallow IM and it's so much easier and more comfortable, especially with frequent injections.

That 200 mg every 21 day therapy is completely ridiculous, and unfortunately not uncommon with general practitioner's. I truly believe that regimen would do more harm than good. The first 5 days you would be fine, following a sharp drastic decrease every day following until your next injection @ day 21.You would be on a testosterone roller coaster.

Have heard good and bad about test gel. 2 shots a week for trt would be easier for me then rubbing gel on daily but I do inject more frequently then that now.

I love the stuff. I'm in my 40's and I high/normal test level is my preference. I did big doses for years. Then I took 2 years to let the body just be. Stayed the gel and it's just right
