Started Testosterone (AndroGel) couple days ago...

Posted by jerrympls on February 11, 2003, at 23:43:15

I talked to my endocrinologist on the phone last week and we decided to do a trial with AndroGel because my testosterone levels keep coming back low. It's been about 4 days and I haven't noticed anything - no side effects - no positive or negative effects. Perhaps it takes time? I'm new to hormone replacement for me (I'm 30 male).

Anyone out there with experience with this?

Thanks
Jerry

Hi Jerry,

What was the measurement of your testosterone level? I recently had a check and it was 450 or so which I gather is in the normal range. Your probably aware that there have been recent studies that have shown a link between low testosterone and depression.

Thanks,

Peter
