I've used both, and I think what is "better" depends on the individual. I prefer Androgel, as it only takes about a minute or so for it to dry on my skin and it doesn't feel sticky or oily after. Some folks seem to like Testim, but again, it's a matter of preference. Either way you have gel and will likely do fine as long as you apply it to a fatty area(I use my thighs/stomach), let it dry before you put clothes on, and give it ample time to absorb into your system(I've been told to allow 6-8 hours to let the T into my system before washing it off).
