Recently added testosterone cream, up coming blood draw

So I recently added testosterone cream to my protocol (help libido - scrotum), along with test cyp and HCG. all taken daily.
If I understand it correctly, I want to apply the cream prior to blood draw and blood draw still directly before next injection. Is this correct?

Also, so far cream has not helped at all. Perhaps next results will either indicate increase or discontinuation. I kind of hope for discontinuation as it is a hassle to apply.
 
Yes, I don't have the numbers in front of me right now(bottom half of range) but will see how it increases on the next labs and go from there
 
So what's the deal with testosterone cream. I thought women weren't supposed to be in contact with the testosterone. Does the cream soak into the balls and it is no longer dangerous to a woman?

They definitely need to avoid contact with the cream. I was told to avoid area for a couple hours to allow absorbtion. area could be cleaned then. I am taking a small dose, majority of therapy from Test Cyp injections

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
