    I have been searching for test and came across a source with androgel.
    Does anyone have experience with it?
    Pros cons vs cyp or test e?
    What is the dosages used being used...

    Seeing that you posted this in here I am presuming its regarding cycling!

    Androgel isn't used for cycles.

    androgel's bioavailability is about 10%. if it says 50mg on the pack, it means only 5mg goes into your body. compared to 200mg/ml or so of any injectables.

    you'll most probably not be able to apply enough androgel to get the same amount of test into your system, c.f. injectables

    Yes, its products which is used for TRT and its not used to build tissue while on cycle. You wouldn't be able to use enough of it to make any kind of tissue gains especially when compared with injectable Test.

    Well if you had enough to soak like a bath it might work. No it's not quite the same. No even it you used multiple packets a day it only absorbs like 10% Is someone looking for alternatives to injection??? Do you have needle phobia? LOL Dont worry, many of us do and you learn to get over it, more or less.

    For the purposes of TRT, I found that about 10gms (2 packets of 1% 5gms) was roughly as effective as my current dose of 100mg Test C a week. So, you'd need a ridiculous amount of Androgel daily (my guess is 10+ packets) to see results somewhat comparable to a standard cycle. I'd be willing to bet the absorption factor alone will greatly diminish as your skin becomes saturated.

    Androgel is a PITA to rub onto your skin with 1 packet, imagine 10+.
    Androgel is expensive as f!@# compared to oils.
    Androgel requires daily application.

    Talk about inconvenient.

    Your MUCH better off with the injectable. Far more effective.
    Topicals have poor absorbtion rate and are messy.
