I am 60 yrs old, in 2010 my urologist verified a 305'ish test level via bloodwork and placed me on therapy using Andro Gel x 2 packets per day.
Readings improved during blood tests each 3 mths until 700-900 levels were reached and i was placed on an every 6 mth bloodwork program to keep tract of test levels, PSA, liver functions ect.
I transferred my Test therapy to my family physician just to cut the amount of doctors and co-pays.
Life was much improved accross the board. Easy and fast to apply and be done with it.
Began dieting, working out, although disc herniations limit overall performance levels we all had at younger ages. But, losing 50 lbs of fat and getting cut was a good thing along with cholesteral dropping 268 to 186! Maybe i can add a few more years on the other end and pester my wife alittle longer.
Today, a routine doctor visit to review last weeks blood work showed a 383 test level???
I have found it harder to go to the gym recently. Poundages are remaining same but with less gains and a few more of those bad days you just don't want to go. Like today.
Doctor thinks it might be a bad reading and wants me to go for another blood work in 2 mths to verify. As a family physician he had no real answers. I began to ask about receptors, oversaturation and got deer in headlights look. Maybe you need to go back to urologist and change gels, dosages or find something that works better for you.
Is it a known thing for those on Andro Gel to drop test levels over time?
Not sure if it's time at my age for injections and dealing with that or just change to another gel or possibly update the amount Andro Gel used.
Thank you for assist
