:cool::confused::oQuestion about time for androgel 1% to set in..... is 5 hours enough time to leave on? then moisturize 1 hour after applying.. then shower at 5 hours? or should it be left on longer if possible ?

with summer coming, its going to be hard during the day to have it on and go to the beach , pool ect......

SECOND QUESTION: Will if effect me that much IF on occasional days it is applied AT BEDTIME to avoid contact or going in water?
I know ur T levels are up the most in the AM, but if 1 or 2 days out of the week it is used at night will that be bad?? if not at bed time, at least after my day is over like 5 or 6 pm:?

any response would be great! thank you.

I am on 75mgs a day of 1% 6 pumps a day...
-thank you

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.
