Guest guest Posted March 16, 2006 Report Posted March 16, 2006 I was on Androgel for the longest time...and I really hated using it. It was a real pain to smear that " snot " all over my belly everyday...rub it all in, and then have it not seeming to do anything. When I lost my insurance for a while, I asked a pharmacist if he would compound a creme for me. Now, supposedly, this creme has the same amount of medicine in it, but it's only a fifth of the amount of actual material to rub in. I couldn't believe the results. I feel so much better with it, have no trouble using it, and really wonder what the difference is. I have insurance again, but even when I didn't, paying for the compounded creme outright cost less that my CO- PAY was costing for Androgel...what gives? Why don't more guys just have a pharmacist compound a creme for them, since it works better, is much cheaper, and much easier to use? Also, why does it seem that it works better? Troy Quote
Guest guest Posted March 16, 2006 Report Posted March 16, 2006 Troy it is good it works for you I was on it yrs. ago and it did a dam good job with my levels. My compounded cream was 2x's stronger then 10 grams of Androgel or Testim. I stopped using it because women were using the base formula from Collage Pharmacy they we complaining it was to watery do Collage make it thinker. I got my next refill and put the plastic syringe into ther bottle to pull out my dose and it was so dam thick it would not come out hell taking the lid off it would not come out. Calling them they could care less. Also I did have refills come to me that had not t in them so my levels started going down. Been there done that. Phil " Troy L.
