need info on androgel

[timebombnc]

can anybody tell me if it works....

each sachet contains 50mg of testosterone but only 10% is absorbed providing 5mg/day over 24 hr period to provide natural test levels and rhythmic release.

it is good for TRT not for muscle gains unless you bathed in the stuff !

a few people on androgel were reporting total test levels of around 900 ng/dl or above in some cases.

 

[toc67guru]

300-900ng/dl is normal range for healthy males.

I was on androgel for a couple months...After the first few weeks on, I had blood checked and was at 900ng/dL. But after two months on the stuff, I lost the "feel good" feeling from it, and for good reason...My T levels were WORSE than before starting the gel - dropped from just over 400 to just over 300. I suspect I was still producing some nat T at the time of my first bloodwork.

Got switched to cyp injections and no regrets; it's good shit. As someone else in this thread said, the most T you will get from the max prescribed dosage is about 70mg/wk (2 50mg packets ed).

whats the half life of androgel? more specifically would you notice an increase using it preworkout in conjunction with a test cycle?

Androgel requires daily application. Using as a pre-workout boost would be retarded....While the dosage is low, it's still gonna completely shutdown your HTPA.

i mentioned using it while on aas. like test e @ 500mg wk and using two packets preworkout.

Ah....sorry about that...didn't catch it first time around.

Peak occurs two hours after application with the stuff. You gotta remember that the 10g absorbed thru the skin is absorbed into the bloodstream over a 24 hour period....the effects of this "pre-workout" are not even going to be noticeable. If you use this in conjunction throughout your entire cycle (ed,ew of the cycle), you'll be taking 570mg of test...hardly worth the trouble of the gel. If you've got it laying around, then that's one thing...But i wouldn't go out of your way to get it.

Also, you need to avoid sweating heavily within 5-6 hours of application...So effectiveness as a pre-workout supplement would be even further eliminated.
