Hi, Started with 5% Testosterone gel a couple of month ago. My total testosterone level was 19,55 (normal 9,9-27,8) and my free was 235 (normal 174-729). I live in Cape Town and had the test done here. How do I convert the result to easier understand levels when reading ur posts. Thnxs Eric

Subcutaneous fat & Testo gel.

Hi, I'm 53 yrs old and started with testogel a couple of month ago and feel great. My only problem is I'm loosing too much subcutaneous fat especially on my butt, legs and arms. Eating healthy and go to the gym 3-4 times a week. What can be done to regain the fat without stopping the TRT therapy?
