Yes. Testim absorbs about 25% better. So for one packet you get 25%

higher T levels.

If the issue is E2 increasing two packets will only make it worse.

You need an E2 test.

Have been trying to get one, Quest keeps running the wrong one.

Hopefully before my endo visit on Monday I will have the results of

the correct test. All the test show so far is that I am mostlikely

not able to get preg. The funny part is each time they do it wrong

thay state order code (don't have it memorized) and that is the order

code that my doc ordered.

When I had my T tested on June 24th my Total T was 212 (range 260-

1000) this was a 1pm blood draw. On July 13th my T level was 213,

this is after 19 days on androgel, that is why my doc said 2 pkgs per

day.

Hopefully my endo will try me on hcG as it would appear that with

some of my own T plus the androgel is what works for me. Or maybe

with enough hcG I can make enough T myself.

That makes sense with this info. We're all different. Two packs of

androgel had me at almost 1200 total T.

Quest entered me as a Female, thus all the warnings came up showing me as

very high in T for a female, when in fact the converse is true.
