    DHT Cream Plus Testosterone Propionate = Major Libido Boost

    I also noticed that it is very easy to create a fake Jano report. That can work both ways, one for the seller to lie about the product, and two for the buyer to create a false claim. Here are the test results posted by Rhinestone Cowboy showing that the sample of the DHT Gel contained only...

    I do agree about some of the latest feedback being anecdotal regarding Alpha Gels. If a person is stating they had the product Jano tested, then show the results. If no clear proof, then it's meaningless. And let's be honest... how many people are actually going to pay to have something...

    It's not worth the time and money to pursue it, as you said, he isn't going to be honest with you. It's anyone's guess what's in it. It could be testosterone, which is very easy to source.

    Topical Yohimbine is nothing new, there is enough direct science, studies and user experience to validate that it does indeed get absorbed.

    DHT Cream Plus Testosterone Propionate = Major Libido Boost

    As I said above, I have used it in the past with good results. The effects of the 2.5 vs 20 are not even close however. My point is that it is expensive and you will end up using it up quickly. It’s just a bang for the buck situation, but you will feel it working, just not as intense as the 20%.

    DHT Cream Plus Testosterone Propionate = Major Libido Boost

    2.5% is a very small dose. You will need to use a lot of it to get results. The products we are talking about in this thread are 20%. I used to use it years ago when it was readily available and cheaper. It does work, you will just go through it quickly.

    I wouldn't consider Defy as one of the offenders. I also use Defy for certain things and have nothing but positive things to say about them. Testing is everything.

    If he is using pure, unestered T, that may still be viable. But, you can do that yourself easily and much cheaper. Unestered T powder is easily sourced, and cheap.

    Although it does have some benefit used alone for those with gynecomastia. Very little verifiable research online, but it has been used for that purpose for years. I think that was one of the original intentions for Andractim.

    Testosterone clinics - Do they know what they are doing?

    Most that I have had any experience with would not even qualify to be a member of this forum. I had a friend go to one who gave him a mixture of HCG, testosterone and Arimidex in a single dose. No testing, just a shotgun approach that they used for everyone. The worst part is that in most cases...
