    Test Cream -- 200 mg/day.

    Just got my test cream from the compounding pharmacy yesterday. 200/mg per day! Is that high??? I know there are many variables for absorption, etc. We shall see.

    My doc started me on 65 mg a day compounding cream. It raised me from 320-409 after 3 months. Now she just bumped it up to 200 mg a day as well and I started it yesterday. I have heard and others more knowledgeable might confirm this but most compounding creams have about a 10% absorption rate. If true that means 140 mg test a week which seems to be about average for most people pinning.

    You absorb a small fraction of the test through your skin. I've seen 10% claimed but don't know how correct that number is.

    Well, I can say with certainty that the 200 mg cream is MUCH stronger than the Axiron/Androgel dosage I was on previously. We'll see.

    The 10% is about right for the guy who absorbs well; many men don't as we all know.

    Get BW done in 2 to 3 weeks, that's long enough for your serum levels to stabilize and you'll know how you're doing from there...

    That's the plan. The AI is probably helping too. I already feel better with it.

    Was your estrogen high? Its pointless to take an ai if it isn't. Where are these pharmacies?

    Estrogen was extremely high. 49 something on a scale of 0-35.
