[QUOTE="Cataceous, post: 141568, member: 38109"] With T (cypionate?) you were getting about 70 mg per week of testosterone. Transdermal testosterone applied to the scrotum can be absorbed far more efficiently than when applied to other skin. Absorption efficiencies of up to 60% have been reported. Clearly you're not absorbing 400+ mg/week, but even at 20% absorption you'd be getting twice as much testosterone as you were with injections. There are various possible explanations for the lower estradiol. One is that the test is wrong. If this happens to be LabCorp's sensitive test then I can report that for me it has been grossly wrong a third of the time. The standard free T test is also going to be unreliable. There are some reports that DHT has aromatase-inhibiting properties. If this is the case then perhaps you have high DHT from the scrotal application. Regardless, it's still advisable to test this hormone sooner or later. [/QUOTE]
