[QUOTE="Wolverine, post: 208670, member: 3254"] Recently switched from injections (50mg T Cyp twice a week) to daily hydrogel from Empower. Tried creams about 8 years ago. Labs went down as I wasn't absorbing. I tried Axiron and compounded cream back then. Neither worked. Have been on injections for about the last 7 years. Had highs and lows but was always searching for consistency. I applied one click (50mg) to chest and two clicks (100mg) to scrotum first thing in the morning. I inject 350ius of HCG twice a week (Monday morning and Thursday evening) and take 12.5 mg of DHEA and 25mg of pregnenolone daily. My labs were done after 5 weeks on hydrogel, 10 hours post application on a Thursday afternoon and prior to my HCG shot in the evening on Thursday. I am primary so HCG has little effect on my T levels. My results are: Total T: 1300 (range 250-1100 ng/dL) Free T: 301.8 (range 35-155 pg/mL) Ultrasensitive E: 62 (range <29 pg/mL) Hematocrit: 46.6 (range 38.5-50.0%) Given Madman's charts, imagine where my levels are at 4-5 hours post application. Having read other's hydrogel experiences I started at 3 clicks instead of the prescribed 4 and still have levels over the top. I didn't run DHT since I was paying for the labs out of my pocket and the DHT lab alone about doubled the cost on the labs. I assume it was very high. I was surprised that my HCT was 46 given how high my T levels were and I have had problems with HCT when on injections. Those with HCT issues may want to consider the hydrogel. Now that I know it is effective, I will now tweak the amount and possibly location of the application to bring my levels down into upper range. I feel good but I believe that my high E is causing me bloating and some EQ issues. Good thing about the gel is that the tweaks and results are quick given there is no ester. Just wanted to share with others that may be considering the hydrogel. [/QUOTE]
