64 year old (with baseline total T 193/120 two separate tests) who started generic of Fortesta 2% T gel (4 pumps) a week ago.
"Recommended" application site is front and inner thigh. Transfer of T to others not major concern. Any experience with other sites that are better for absorption? I viewed Dr Crisler's great video so know the inner forearms are a good site but with small forearms concerned I may inadvertently get the gel in the blood draw site especially with my poor eyesight.
Is is their any advantage for absorption with rotating the sites?
Also seems that there are concerns that the larger the area you spread the gel the more conversion to estrogen and DHT. IS THIS A SIGNIFICANT FACTOR?
Would splitting the application dose to two pumps a.m. and then two pumps p.m. be better for absorption, minimizing conversion to estrogen and DHT and maintaining more even testosterone levels?
