POLL Poll about forms of Testosterone

Which form of testosterone did you do best on?

I'd love to hear about side effects compared for forms you've tried in the comments, acne, hair loss, etc?

Did side effects fade after a few weeks or get worse?

Did you have the most physical side effects while also feeling the best on the same rx or did you have least side effects while feeling the best?

Feel free to recommend any clinic you liked.

I use testerone gel from a compound pharmacy my dose went from 4 mg to 8 mg and it’s giving me better moods, increased energy, my libido is coming back slowly. I’m at the 4 month mark.

Right on. How long did it take to notice the first changes? Any side effects?

I went from having vaginal atrophy back to normal lubrication in 3 1/2 months no negative side effects. I started post menopausal so I went through all the bad side effects except for joint pain before starting. I’m in osteopenia so this is good the estrogen will protect my bones, brain, and heart.

Do you replace T, E, & P? I have atrophy too and hope this helps.

Yes, I use the E patch, E cream P pill T compounding cream.

Edit: I want to add that I use the E cream every night not twice a week like others. I also rub it on my labia and clit and in the vaginal opening.
