A suggestion if you are going topical

[Guest guest]

If you are going to stay with topical based exogenous T, I would seriously look

into having

your doctor prescribe you a 10%-15% compounded cream. Having tried androgel,

testim,

androderm, a bucal/sub lingual medication, and a compounded cream, I liked the

cream

the best, and due to the level of concentration, I was getting 800 plus levels.

I did not experince all the " magic " that testosterone therapy promises until I

was 800 plus

and I had my estrogen levels in check, and after a few tests to get you in the

ballpark,

Phil's am wood method seems to work as good or better than anything all of the

doctors

that i have seen have proposed, and it is alot cheaper.

your milage may vary

I certainly wouldn't take any option off the table and will keep that

in mind if we decide to stay topical. I guess only time will tell

here. I'm VERY symptomatic so we'll see what the Testim does. I'd

rather do Androgel because of insurance or the compounded cream. I

wouldn't mind trying shots but I'm VERY new at getting any medical

treatment. The Testim is the first step for me after almost two years

of suffering with these symptoms.
