    TRT Question

    Age: 22

    So i have been on androgel 1% 5g for over a month now applying everyday, I have had low T for a long time and finally started trying to get it fixed, I got the results back from a blood test and these were the results

    Free test: 24.5 L normal: 35-155 pg/mL

    Total test: 146 L Normal: 250-1100 ng/dL

    LH: 0.2 L Normal: 2.0-9.0 mIU/mL

    FSH: < .1 L Normal: 0.7-11.1 mIU/mL


    the levels appear to have dropped, before my LH and FSH were borderline low and as you can tell they are virtually zippo!! I am going in for an appointment this next week could someone give me some advice on what to ask the doctor as far as TRT goes, like switching to injections and at what mg/week should i push for?

    hi.....perhaps the "Hormone Replacement Therapy" forum might better serve this question...

    I have seen quite a few guys in your age range asking a similar question there.....and the guys there are very helpful....

    I have read over and over that injections are superior to Androgel and preferably get your doc to let you self-inject so you do not have to go to the office to do so.....
