Hello out there,
How has everyone been?
I recently moved to a new state, Connecticut, and with that came a new Endo. I'm been on T for 2 and a half years now and I've seen some great results. Unfortunately my levels have been out of whack for awhile now. My T levels are very high and so is my estrogen. So clearly my excess testosterone is converting into estrogen. My old Endo and I tried messing with the dose and how often I injected. Nothing seemed to work.
The worst part about this is that I lost a lot of the muscle I gained when I first started T. Sad. So my new doctor suggested I tried Axiron which is a topical solution. I need to apply it under my underarms daily. It's a bit of pain as it takes after two hours to fully dry. You can put your clothes on after 5 minutes but no getting wet or sweating until two hours later. There is no burning feeling involved or anything. It is smells a bit like alcohol while it's drying is my worst side effect and perhaps it's a bit messy and drips a bit down my side. Besides that, peachy.
I don't especially want to bring my T levels down. They are at teenage boy average right now. Still it seems that's what I need to do to drop my E levels back to a normal male range. Also I need to work out a bit more and get back some of that lean muscle I lost.
So yeah, is anyone experienced with topical solutions after being on T for awhile? Or experienced with it as a starter?
Paul
