Is it possible that the testosterone is working even though the numbers are low. In other words, could the “free” testosterone be high even though the normal number is low? I do see some good changes.

I’ve posted before; however, there’s an update. I tried androgel 1.62%, 40 grams. . Not only did it not work, my psa went up from 3.7 to over 5! Lately i tried testesterone gel, 1%, 50 grams because i heard it may work when androgel doesn’t. Nope. Didn’t work. Testosterone went down and PSA up...

What’s the explanation of how the numbers went up when NOT applying the gel?

What was your psa?

The gel results in high psa numbers. Would the injections do the same?

Usually next day, maybe 18 hours after application.

Ok, androgel didn’t seem to work. My testesterone numbers were around 300. I’ve restarted it because i was feeling badly. I feel better since taking it. The “300,” is that always accurate. I know there’s another measurement (free testesterone?). Is it posssible the two measurements could be...

i switch to injections, from androgel will this increase my psa like the androgel did? Im 67 and definitely need trt, but don’t want to jeopardize my prostrate. Please help.

Need some help. I’ve been taking androgel for quite awhile (over a year) and it’s not working. Testosterone is now lower and PSA is up. Until I can see a urologist, i want to get off the androgel. I already struggle with anxiety, so don’t want more of it if it’s possible to get worse when...

Did you ever get results after applying lotion?

The tubes are “stickier” than the androgel. The androgel didn’t help. Wondering if the tubes will.

Is there a difference between these two? I know the androgel is 1.62% and the other is 1%, but are they the same thing? I believe the pharmacy gave me the tubes as a generic for testim. They have discontinued testim and only have a small amount left.

I’ve tried androgel and it didnt work. I wanted to try testim; however, insurance wouldn’t cover it. They do cover Methitest tablets. Any info on this?

Androgel didn’t work. I’ve seen a study where using moisturizing cream an hour after application increased testesterone when androgel alone didn’t. Anyone have experience with this?
