[QUOTE="ReGenesis1, post: 73834, member: 15285"] We, at ReGenesis, have used both injectable, as well as creams/gels. To obtain similar blood levels as an injection you have to assume that only about 10% of the cream dosage ever makes it through the skin. So, you have to use 300mg of testosterone cream/gel PER DAY, in order to get about 200mg per week. Most patients, even with that dose, don't get to quite the levels on 1cc per week of testosterone injection (200mg/mL.) For the men we have on cream, their levels held steady at 700-800 for about a year or so. After that, I've seen their levels dramatically decrease down to as low as 300! This is due to transdermal fatigue. Additionally, testosterone creams/gels convert to DHT much more readily than injectable testosterone; thus, requiring addition of finasteride which can/does steal some of the benefits of testosterone. Having treated hundreds of patients with low T we, at ReGenesis, feel that there is no substitute for good old fashioned injectable testosterone with anastrazole and maybe a baby dose of finasteride, depending on the patient.
