Been using Androgel just over 1 month. It has made a big difference in my desire and ability to perform. No longer need ED drugs like Viagra, Cialis or Levitra.

I have been using testosterone gel for over 4 months. I started with Testim but could not stand the smell. I got my doctor to prescribe Androgel and found it to be way nicer to apply. It does not leave a sticky residue like Testim and is completely odorless. I am in my early 50's and I had previously been on antidepressants for about 2 years. I find that I am feeling a lot better taking Androgel both mentally and physically. I go to the gym 4 or 5 days a week and I feel stronger than I have in years. As far as sex and libido, I can not believe the difference that Androgel has made. Absolutely fantastic.

I began testosterone treatment in June of 2008. I self injected 200mgs of Enanthate. After 2 months I stopped using it due to painful injection sites. In 10/08 my Doctor prescribed me the Androgel pumps. My levels were at 198 which for a 36 year old male is way low, no wonder I felt terrible. No drive to do anything, including sex, which for me was unheard of. I started out with two pumps but I noticed no change. In 11/08 4 pumps which actually caused a drop in my levels. 01/09 I began six pumps. In the past 5 months I have felt good. I am playing sports again, sex life is better, and I have lost 15 lbs. I have no side effects. Still a head of hair! I just feel really good. I feel like I am 26 again. No regrets. Use 100mg of B6 and more protein.

Have been using it for less then 30 days. Noticed a difference in 3 days (as the pamphlet said). I now feel 62 or less, instead of 90. Not near as irritable. Applying to stomach area where I have a surgery scar, which the gel (possibly the alcohol) irritates. I've been objective, taking in consideration the psychological aspect.

I have been using Androgel pump since July 2008. The first few months I noticed no changes with my mood, motivation or sexual interest. The Urologist had to adjust the dose a few times to have the right blood levels of testosterone. Once this was achieved I have been feeling great. I noticed a big difference in my sex drive (almost a night/day difference from day one). Lately my muscle mass has been increasing, almost like being on steroids. I do quite a bit of manual labor and my arms have gotten huge. I have lost just about all of the spare fat around my waist and my mood has been right on track with how I was when I was younger. I'm so glad I had the motivation to seek help when I did.

Have used pump for a year and a half. Used packets for six months before that. Prefer the pump. Works well and I feel better. Have gotten back muscle mass, better outlook on life in general, and can feel sexual again. Only negative is that testicals are smaller and softer since they no longer have to produce testosterone, but they don't bother me otherwise.

I'm a 35 year old male and I had no idea that lack of testosterone could have such an effect on the body. While my sex drive was on the low side, that was not the major problem. I had been put on various antidepressants over many years. However, my low testosterone level was the real culprit. I would advise all men who have depression issues to have their testosterone levels checked.
