[QUOTE="YBWV, post: 134233, member: 32335"] It sounds as though your prescribing Doctor has left the application site(s) of the T Cream up to you in which case my [B]suggestion [/B]would be to initially split each daily application, say 50/50, between scrotum and another site. If you use too much of the product on scrotum you may send DHT higher than desirable and not achieve a good balance with E2. The issue of what ratio of injectable to transdermal to use is going to be highly individual with the determining factor being efficacy. Cost, convenience, absorbency and logistics may influence what is possible. I think the main advantage of getting a significant proportion of T from injectables is the ability to maintain sufficiently high serum levels of T and E2 without the absorbency issues that may come with using a greater amount of the transdermals. There should normally be a cost saving too. You will probably have bloods and a follow-up once you're into your therapy. If you're not getting the results you seek then you could discuss the mixed modality with your Doctor. It may seem counterintuitive and unnecessarily complicated to many Doctors but the selling point should be that you can potentially achieve relief of symptoms with less of the pharmaceutical and thereby reduced risk of side effects. Best of luck with your new therapy and yes, as you've offered, please do post up your results. [/QUOTE]
