cream

Testosterone cream dosage Hi all, I was just put on cream to try out. As injections have been useless no matter the protocol, assuming from my single digit shbg levels. Anyway, I was prescribed a cream base, at 400mg/gm which I’ve been reading is not stable? Supposedly 20% cream is the max...

If you were to switch from cream which has approximately one day half life to cypionate injection, would it make sense to do a higher first dose injection to “preload” ? For example, if your protocol was 50mg twice a week, do 100mg first shot and then 3-4 days later come in with the 50mg and...

Hey lurked here for a while posted a while ago too . Just had a quick question heard alot of talks about creams possibly being the way to go for some people... I was prescribed from my urologist compounded T cream for scrotal application..my question is it's only 1 pump a day at 81mg per pump...

Hi Folks, Happy to join such and informative HRT page. Been on TRT for a number of years and have some reasonable knowledge (ok ) but need some help. So i've been on injections (test e ) for a few years with some decent results over the years. Generally I run no more than 120mg a week and have...

My DHT is 5x the reference range max and I developed acne. I use compounded cream every morning and the dose put me at 500-900 when measured 2 hours after application.

I got the 20% testosterone cream by NP labs. I was told to use one click and apply it on my arm (wrist to upper arm). However, I'm reading that a lot of people use it on the scrotum. What would you suggest? Anything that works better? Also, is one click daily in the beginning enough?

I scored some pharma alcohol based “LowTiyel” test gel from my stop in mexico yesterday. i needed to apply it before going back on my cruise ship (mega security x2) and just rubbed a whole 50mg packet on my entire penis and balls. burned but not that bad . just wondering if this was an...

So with the latest topics about cream, i might try it myself again in the future if the injections dont work out.. In the past i used cream. But i only had succes with one batch of cream. Very weird. But i have never felt more dialed like then. Unfortunately when the next batch arrived it all...

Who is the endocrine expert here? What is the clinical rationale as to why and how my T levels would drop within 1 month on 200mg transcrotal cream, YET DHT nearly tripled, LH went to 0 (as I’d expect), and HCt went up from 46 to 50? Clearly the T cream was “working”, but T went from 502 to...

Just started TRT, 200mg cream in AM to scrotum 6 weeks ago with 50mg DHEA and 100mg Pregnenolone. At start my labs were, and frankly felt very “good” generally, mild libido issues, wanting to merely optimize overall health and vitality (active 55 YO), all other labs normal/optimal incl Thyroid...

Here are my labs on 8 weeks of 100 mg a week split into two injections (we’ll split the injects 5 weeks ago. I thought my levels would be low. They don’t look bad? New Dr wants me to try cream? Old Dr wants me to stay the course with injections. Not feeling good lower sex drive erections aren’t...

Hello all, I started on 75mg a day a couple days ago after my labs showed test in the gutter. I know that it takes about 3 weeks to see the first changes from injections but can’t find anything about the cream. I thought this was due to levels having to stabilize as it is an ester, however the...

26m who has struggled on TRT for a long time. In summer 2021 was prescribed test cypionate which immediately causes complete loss of libido, which only returned about 6 weeks after cessation of treatment. Testosterone did not naturally recover (although libido did), and resumed treatment this...

I'm interested to hear from men that have tried both injections and cream when it comes to side effects commonly attributed to DHT, like acne and hair loss. It is clear that serum DHT on cream is ridiculously elevated to many multiples of the normal range in almost everyone using it. However...

I am switching from cream to injections. I have only ever used this doc for cream and for injections he uses pavillion pharmacy in ATL. They use a blend of cyp/prop mixed with mct oil. I have been on cyp for years prior to using cream but never a blend. Anyone have any experience with this?

I was on scrotal cream for a couple of years and had great results. Wonderful labs. Muscles mass, energy, even libido was great. All except my actual erections. I had amazing libido, but when it came time to actually perform, there was a 50/50 chance of it happening, and if it did happen it was...

After being off TRT for close to a year and trying enclomiphene and clomid a few times, I have decided to try TRT again. On either therapy I had poor energy and low libido, lost most of my muscle, etc. I started using the cream about 7 weeks ago from Med quest, applied daily to my inner...

I'm 5 days into switching from 2 years of daily test cypionate injections to 200 mg/ml compounded cream at 2 clicks AM and 2 clicks PM (to the scrotum). I was pretty excited to try this after reading all the comments saying it gives high energy, high libido, etc. Many people even saying it...

Around 3 years ago I was diagnosed with type 2 hypogonadism probably because of my experimentation with AAS for muscle building purposes... However, I want to say that even prior to doing any AAS my Total testosterone numbers were already on the low end of normal 270 / 300 but my doctor at the...

I've definitely noticed a pattern after applying T cream, within an hour my penis turtle's up. Definitely a cause and effect relationship as I've tracked this for several weeks now. Any thoughts on the cause or reasoning?

I've been on scrotal cream for a few years. Feel great. However I have always got pretty annoying facial acne. My dht is pretty high 155ng/dL, however it's been as high as 290ng/dL. The range is usually 14 to 77ng/dL. FWIW, I used to be at a measley 8ng/dL before I started. Total T is around...

does anyone have an idea of what could the half life of a couponed Pregnenolone or Progesterone cream be?

I am considering trying to use the cream in a way that doesn’t shut down natural production. Maybe applying one click scrotally every three days or something like that. Does this even Make any sense?

Hi all, Wanted to know if anyone knew this. I'm aware that likely genital skin/scrotum is richest in 5a-reductase and thus yields the most DHT from topical testosterone (gel or cream). Does anyone know which site comes after that? From what I've read the sheer amount of skin you apply on...

Hi, There is a compounding pharmacy where I live but they don't know how to make testosterone cream. Does anyone have a formula / composition that I can send to them as reference?

I’ve been in test cream for a while now. Still working on dialing in my protocol, but seeing improvements. I have usually gone with a 1X/day application, applied right after I shower in the AM. But now I’m wondering if I would feel better if I spaced my dose out to 2X/day. Just curious what...

We have sex on average twice a day, very hard for me to tell in advance exactly when. I apply testosterone cream (Pentravan base) twice a day to the scrotum. My scrotum comes in contact with her vagina and her mouth. How long is it safe to wait before engaging in sex after cream application...

I tried various protocols on the cypionate and never felt really very good. Always somewhat high strung or anxious feeling. I switched over to cream and I feel significantly calmer, no bloodwork yet. I'll do a little experiment and give myself a small injection of 30mg of cyp and that anxiety...

Hello all, My wife is 50 years old. Never had kids and is in menopause. She has low T, no energy, brain fog, hot flashes. So she did pellets. Worked ok for 2 out of 12 weeks she had them in. (Week 6 and 7 ONLY). The rest of the time showed no results. Been off T pellets for 4 months. She was...

For those guys that have tried it, can it be felt from the first dose? I don't mean you'll be stabilized after just one dose but can you feel something?

Hi everyone, not my first post but this seemed the most appropriate section to post this. I just got my latest lab work back, first full set since august. I’m approaching my 2 year mark on trt and I’m wondering where I go from here? First year I was on test cyp 140mg/week and ranged up to 160...
