DMSO Protocol for Test Gel?

Hi I’m looking for advice on how to dose my test gel while using DMSO topically to increase absorption. I’m on a 1.62% gel that amounts to 16.1 mg a day or 113mg of test a week.

In theory if I use DMSO to help absorption I can cut down my daily dose of gel as I understand, as you apparently get 99% absorption into the blood when you apply DMSO to the area directly afterward.

At the moment I’m applying my gel to my traps, shoulders and tops of my feet and tend to experiment with these sites while doing blood work regularly.

Are there any links to topics here on T Nation that can help?

I would definitely NOT do that. DMSO is a pretty wicked solvent, and should not be applied to large areas or used really often. You also have to thoroughly wash the area first, every time. I ti will carry anything on the skin all the way to your bones. I seriously doubt that will aid absorption in any meaningful way, but it may carry it somewhere that you don’t actually want it.
