[QUOTE="Gauge, post: 62051, member: 15026"] Good day Gents I ran a few different search queries looking for this topic but to my suprise came up empty. I started trt approximately three months ago. My total testosterone was around 150ng/dl, and i had all the common symptoms, lack of libido and extreme low energy being the most troublesome. I was prescribed %20 testosterone cream (compounding pharmacy), 0.5ml to be applied daily, to the scrotum. After week four i was starting to feel some results, which I'm sure the missus would attest to. After two months however, all of my positive improvements had gone. Today i visited the doc to discuss the bloodtest results from last week. Looks like my testosterone levels are now even lower than before starting trt. I would like to add that my doctor gave me no instructions as to the blood test, so i went to the test immediately after waking, 12 hours fasted, without having applied the cream for the day (i typically apply first thing in the morning). His course of action is to simply double my dosage to 1ml per day, applied in two separate doses. The main reason i am posting is that i would greatly appreciate the input of anyone else whom has found themselves in this situation. I have my doubts that simply doubling the dose will bring my levels to within normal range. He has made an appointment for me in three months time, and i am praying that i do not have to live with low testosterone symptoms for that much longer. I see that many here go the injectable route and am hoping my doctor and i can agree upon this at my next visit. Thanks in advance for any replies/help [/QUOTE]
