Tostran gel

Hi all,

Reading older posts seems to be a love of injections over gel. I can’t say as I’ve only been on gel for two weeks but have noticed an effect already.

I use Tostran gel 2% 6 pumps daily.
I was diagnosed with testosterone deficiency, I’m 42.

I have noticed increased semen volume and I’m not as tired but some days it feels like the gel isn’t working. I’d like to ask a few questions if I may:

Is there a guaranteed benefit to applying a moisturiser to the gel site and if so how long after application.

Would it be prudent to shave the area prior to application

Can I use other areas of my body safely to apply gel (currently inner thighs, one thigh alt days and abdomen). I have seen posts mentioning upper arms and shoulders, but the patient leaflet doesn’t mention these.

I have been searching for answers to these questions and have conflicting answers or none at all! The internet is not your friend sometime. So I am asking you guys (if gel users) for your anectodal experiences.

Thanks in advance

Yes, you can. Just avoid your scrotum if the gel is alcohol based

hello Sir

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.
