I’m not a doc, but have been involved with both products for a few years. I work for the company that makes Testim.
Hope I can help!

I have a ? compared to injection…how much test would i be gettting using 10grams a day of androgel ? my poin tis .im on 100mg a week of injection…so if i added 10grams a day of gel…whats the comparrsion ? how many much more would I getting.
Hey Testim Guy:
I’ve been using Testim for 4 years and very happy with results. I use 2 tubes daily and spread over upper body as directed, but I also apply to (1) under wrists, (2) back of knee caps and (3)break between forearm and upper arm. My blood test have shown consistenly high T levels of 800 to 1100 along with high levels of E2 (50ish), and now my Dr wants to reduce my testim to one tube per day to bring both T & E2 back into range. When I experiment with only 1 tube daily there is a noticeable reduction in my energy level and mood so I really don’t want to change my 2 tube daily regiment.
My questions are (1) am I doing any harm by applying to the three extra areas, (2) why doesn’t Testim provide some guidance for controlling E2 and (3) are there any cases of Testim use being linked to prostate cancer at higher T levels of 1100 - where I am now?
I appreciate your being here to provide an unbiased view based on you knowledge of Testim.
Thanks
