[QUOTE="tomas, post: 70800, member: 15507"] Okay so I got my lab tests back. Testosterone is low and converting to DHT like crazy since I am applying 200mg of 20% Testosterone cream on scrotum based upon my original doctor and matching this protocol: [URL]http://www.hormonesolutions.com/blog/2013/12/scrotal-application-of-testosterone-is-up-to-5-times-more-effective-than-to-the-upper-body/[/URL] Clearly this protocol is not working and will have to change it. I am wondering if I should just give it another shot on normal skin? I see suggestions of 1/2 to 1 gram of 20% daily to normal skin, would that be correct? Then measure my free and total testosterone in another 4 weeks? Also I probably should go donate a pint of blood soon.
