Testosterone question

I just started on a 1% cream compound this week. Is anyone else using this dose? If so, how is it working for you?

Testosterone question

Bonella,
I use a 1% testosterone cream. It has worked well for me. When I first started using it I applied once a week, than went to every other day, than a few times a week, and now I use it occassionally. I just had my levels checked and they were good, as compared to my last test, when my level was "in the toilet" <doc's words, not mine >.

Testosterone question

Hi Bonnie!

I use 1% compounded testosterone. It works great for me! I started out using it daily and gradually cut back as my levels increased. Now I can use it once a week or less and still have the benefits and no side effects.

There are symptoms to watch for when using testosterone. For me it's acne along with oily skin and hair. More symptoms to watch for are in this link to the Too Much/Too Little list.

Good luck with your cream! I hope it helps you as much as it has helped me.
