After 5mos on Axiron T-levels down?

[Bevo777]

May 5-10-12 my Total Test was 469 and Free Test was 6.2 ( Doc didn't do LH test). Started the Axiron on 5-12-12 @ 2 pumps a day (60mg), my strength increased a good bit for awhile and so did my metabolism.
But by mid July to early Aug, i've felt like my metabolism has slowed down and it's been harder to burn fat and my energy level is down. On 9-5-12 my doc pulled blood again and my Total Test was 219 and Free Test was 4.8, LH was <0.2?
I asked my Doc why these #'s would go down and why would I not feel as good? His answer was to start taking 3 pumps a day?? I told him I didn't want to continue with the Axiron and that I would like an injectable. So he just prescribed me Test Cyp 1/2cc a week? ( Haven't taken it yet, I don't think 1/2cc a week will do much anyway)

I do not think this is the answer....I think it has something to do with my body shutting down it's natural production? I know there needs to be a balance, I just need help with how to go about achieving that?

Open to any advice or comments!

take the injections like your Dr suggested, the cream is most likely not going to work for you. This is common with the creams.

there is no balance, once you supplement your natural production will shut down, it sounds like you were not absorbing the cream, or just converting to estrogen like crazy, did he test your E2 ? I doubt he did.
