Switching from TestoGel (Looking for advice)

[Megazoid]

Hi Guy's,

After being on the testogel for five day's i started noticing improvements in my general health. While i wasn't getting my full sexual function back i was seeing some mark improvements in my muscles and joints.

With that said i was suffering from some "body" itching and getting some rashes on my upper arms which i never had before. I called my doctor (Anti-Aging/Testosterone Specialist) and he want's me to switch to to Adromen (I think it's called). He say's this is a cream which you must apply to the scrotum twice daily. He think's this will work alot better than the testogel.

I asked about trying "Testim" instead but he still think's i will get better results from the Andromen cream.

This got me thinking - wouldn't this cause elevated DHT/E2 levels because it's being applied to the scrotum? Because the cream is being applied close to the scrotum could this cause further testicular shrinkage and prostate problems?

Will the Andromen work better for me than TestoGel (50mg) a day? I am a little scared to experience the change because i am applying it to the scrotum area. I think the Dr mentioned something about it being a higher dosage of Testosterone also (I could be wrong though).

Here is a link and no where in this does it say to put on your scrotum. I do know it you put Androgel or Testim on your boys it will drive up your DHT to 3 to 5 x's above range I did it.

The following link talks about the different forms of TRT and it takes about the scrotum Patch.

I don't feel trying this will do any damage when I drove up my DHT I felt nothing it just showed up on my blood work. Try it and see how it goes.

Check the research from here (http://www.androgel.us/TransdermalTe...Carruthers.pdf) and you will find out why AndroMen should be applied to the scrotum. In fact their latest advice is to apply it to the scrotum.

Much better than AndroGel - AndroMen is $100 for 50 doses and now because of the scrotal application only need 1 dose a day.

No alcohol in AndroMen and therefore no itching skin.

One big problem doing this cream on the boys is it can drive up your DHT very high. I had the patch you put on the boys and it drive up my DHT so high 3x's above the top of the range and my prostate was going nuts it started hurting a low pain and I started having problems voiding. I started getting bladder infections. Later doing Androgel and Testim gels same dam thing and it did not go on the boys.

Another thing might be a higher risk of transferring this to your partner. On your upper arms or shoulder you can just put on a shirt. On the scrotum this would be harder during sex. I know you put it underneath but those guys can flop around. I guess you would need a shower for sure before getting jiggy.
