I was on Androgel for 3 years. It never worked well for me and stopped working all together a few months ago. I switched to 100mg/week of TE and now wish I had been on injections the whole time. My T levels went from 365 to 731 and I feel 100% better. Endurance, muscle mass, and libido have improved dramatically and ED has almost disappeared in just 3 months.

I have been in treatment for about 2 1/2 months using both the androgel for 1 1/2 (daily 5mg) and now I have received three shots of 100mg of testosterone without results using any of the two methods. I will start my next appointment with an injecition of 200mg and kind of scare about this increase in the treatment.

In 2012, my GP would administer Sustanon 250 in my outer right thigh every 6 weeks (3 weeks on / 3 weeks off PCT) The solution is oil based and would take about 48 hours to be effective. After 48 hours of dose, the pain in my right leg was debilitating I would limp for the next 5 or 6 days. I did not eat clean and did not exercise. My original weight was 76kg and increased to 89kg in about 16 weeks. I did not sleep soundly for 24 weeks during both on and off cycles. I have been on and off T-boosters both prescribed and non-prescribed for some years while training to olympic standard most times. I suspect my heart has enlarged significantly.Read More Read Less

55 year old male, prescribed to me about 18 months ago for TRT. My initial T-Level was around 250 with usual symptoms. Started out 1/2cc of 200 mg for about 2 months with no real change in levels or how I felt. Doc increased to 1cc every 2 weeks. Half way through a cycle I'm up around mid/high 600s. As of my blood work last week at the end of a 14 day cycle I was mid 400s. Prior to this I always droped back to the 250 range. My free T-Level is still low (1.66% of 1.6-2.9% scale) but I don't think this drug fixes free T-Levels. Overall I feel better and my libido is great again. If given the choice I'd take 1/2cc every 7 days than 1cc every 14 days to avoid the half life cycle.Read More Read Less

Have been on it for 2 years. Have lost 80 lbs and stamina and energy have improved drastically. No side effects, except acne at times. Receive an injection every two weeks. At 51 and having high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol and with the medications I take for those issues, my physician states my health is great.

Diagnosed with Low T I was put on 100 mg per week. Prior to the shot I was very moody, depressed, gaining weight and really just tired all the time. I had quit working out after over 20 years of regular visits to the gym. 3 years in to treatment I'm now back in the gym and my mood is "greatly" improved. I was impotent prior to the shots(my t level reading was 260) but now I'm fully recovered and working fine. It has worked well for me.

Positive, much superior to gel or patch...have used 110 mg/ml every ten days, but causes too much hemoglobin requiring 240 phylebotomies in 20 years of use. Testosterone cypionate crystalizes in 10 ml bottles whereas enanthate doesn't.

Used for low T. 55 years old - very healthy. 170 mg every two weeks. Helped with sleep & concentration & mood. Libido still low but otherwise beneficial. Have a tingling in upper back that I haven't found an answer for. Overall, satisfied.

I was diagnosed with Klienfelters Syndrome about 6 years ago. I have used the testerone replacement patch and the gel, with little effect. But I have been using the injection for two weeks now and I have seen a big difference in many areas in my daily activities.

I am a 49 year old female who has been treated for Chronic Fatigue & Fibromyalgia for about 13 years. I had a complete hysterectomy 15 years ago and always felt that my problems were related to hormone imbalance. Even though I have an OB-Gyn prescribing progesterone, estrogen, DHEA, & testosterone, I was finally prescribed this testosterone and WOW! Suddenly I feel good again & want sex! I have felt lousy for so long, this is just incredible! I started on 1cc per week, and now take .3cc per week plus a cream. I feel like I'm 30 again. Maybe my husband needs some to keep up with me.Read More Read Less

I am a 45 year old man utilizing 2 cc's a week and I feel Great! No hair loss, libito & erections like I was a kid. In addition, I had previously taken Ambian CR because I couldn't sleep. Within (3) weeks at 2 cc's (2) units in a 5 ml syringe, I was/am sleeping like a baby without the ambian CR! I have further benifited by a dramatic sence of wellbeing.

I was percribed this to replace my test. levels. As they were lower than average causing some problems. My symptoms subsided but my hair started to fall out and I could only sleep for four (4) hours a night. I gained very little weight and was taking 250mg in 1cc per week. It helped to resolve some but not all the problems I was having.
