Testosterone Therapy

I'm wondering how many men are on testosterone therapy. My testosterone has always been very low and the doctor just gave me a gel to put on.

I'm on "Vitamin T" myself.
I'm not on gel, though, I do weekly injections (prescribed, of course). I was going to try the gel, but after learning how careful you have to be while handling it I was concerned about what if my wife came into contact with it, etc. I opted for the injections. 0 -

What difference have you seen?0 -
I know this is an old thread but I just joined this group. I started TRT in 2012 and got off in 2017 to try and have another kid. After about the 6-7 month mark I started to really notice that I had energy, no motivation, no desires. I started TRT again in December and now everything is so much better.0

I was on TRT for quite some time. Estrogen is stored in fat... and that made my estrogen high (for a male), plus my testosterone was low. Both problems resolved when I lost 90 lbs.
I've regained some of that, but my T levels remain good. Part of that involves other lifestyle/ habit changes as well.0 -
I was on T therapy for a short time (gel). It did help. I'm 45 now and just getting back into trying to regain fitness. Feel pretty good at the moment, but I do plan on getting my T levels checked when my physical comes up.0

I tried the gel but and the patch but both irritated my skin, not attractive to the wife. So now on twice a month shots.0
