[QUOTE="HealthMan, post: 90739, member: 13512"] If you look at the graph of total testosterone vs 24h provided by gels like Fortesta you can see some pretty big daily swings ~ 300. So not really stable levels. When i was using testosterone creams there were big swings as well (despite of using 2x day). So i think the idea that gel/creams always provide stable levels is incorrect. But indeed creams/gels usually dont provide supra-physiological spikes. But what would be relevant to HCT? Big swings of TT levels or supra-physiological spikes? Not sure. But if you looks at Vince experience his HCT was stable with TT > 1500. And some people with TT within range but injecting less frequently sometimes have HCT issues too. Tough to know for sure until we have some studies on this subject. However daily injections of testosterone cypionate should produce virtually stable levels. [/QUOTE]
