[QUOTE="Gene Devine, post: 13220, member: 4"] Hi T-Dog, and welcome to the forum...you came to the right place! Nice post and very well stated but so sorry for your condition. You are without a doubt hypogonadal as your Testosterone serum levels indicate and supported by your symptoms. Clearly, you are not absorbing the transdermals well as your serum levels did not elevate accordingly...this is not uncommon with transdermals. You would do much much better with weekly injections as this will guarantee that you will get the testosterone into your bloodstream. Please know, most Endos and Uros are not trained well in TRT in men unfortunately. You really need to find a TRT Specialist who knows and understands hypogonadism in men. There are many reasons why your serum levels dropped so quickly; anything from a Pituitary Tumor to Thyroid conditions to simply age-related decline. For us to really help you we need to see your bloodwork before you started your transdermal. If you can get those and post them here in this thread complete with ranges that would be great. Also, I think you may be better cared for with a Physician who only practices hormone replacement in men. There are a number of clinics here on the site you can call and discuss your options for a better medical evaluation. Your situation can be fixed but you need to be in the right care for that to happen. Post your blood work if you can. [/QUOTE]
