User Reviews for Axiron

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: I am 44. My T level last year was 182 and climbed to 222 last month. Decided to try Axiron with the free 30 day trial. So far feeling pretty good. Mood is up, libido is up slightly, and it seems my muscle tone has improved. The problem is my insurance doesn't cover it so at around $300 / month this will be too costly to continue. Hoping for cheaper alternatives - perhaps injections. I would love to continue using Axiron but it doesn't appear to be in the cards unfortunately.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: At 54 I had little energy by day's end. I was falling asleep in chair after dinner. For the first time, ever, my libido, was diminished. And was moody and depressed. Also, had problems concentrating at work. On 60 mgs for a month and all symptoms turned around except libido. Doc moved me ot 90 mgs. I have been on that dosage for 2 weeks and seem to have regular headaches.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: I have tried it all! Very frustrated with the lack of results, my doctor put me on Axiron about a month ago. This is the one product that has truly changed my life. I feel much better. I feel much more energetic and my anxiety and mood issues are gone. I really hope this is not to good to be true!

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: Worked well enough to stop taking any of the erectile dysfunction prescriptions that I was taking. Very pricey.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: My T-Level was 145 then just two weeks later 135. Then I started loosing bone mass and muscle tone. My Doctor advised me to try Axiron. Only on day two, lifting weights and walking has already become easier to do. Sex drive as always been there. Brain willing, body function not so good. Will post again in two weeks to let you know how things are going. So far though for two days I am happy with results.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: I have been on the gel for 5 months and all I can say is wow! My doctor put me on a strict diet and told me to try this. I was hesitant at first but after about a week of use I started to see some serious changes. Sex drive, energy, alertness, and overall performance. I had gained quite a bit of weight, to be exact I was 418 lbs! With diet, exercise, and increasing my test levels I have lost 68 lbs and still dropping. My side effects were a little different from others. My ejaculation increased and my size increased as well. Also I shave my arm pits now to ensure that all the medication is being absorb, and I apply the medication at night after I shower. I also wait about 25 mins before getting dress.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: I personally love it. Great stuff

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: Same symptoms as most other reviewers. Been on Axiron for about a month now. Feeling significantly better. Mood, energy, and sex drive are way up. Noticed slight sinus burning/headaches, but I'm not sure they are associated with Axiron. Underarm redness and burning have been pretty significant, but bearable. Dont know levels yet. Another test to come.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: I have been using Axion for a little over a month. I am 65 years old. About 2 weeks after I started the use of Axiron my energy level was unbelieveable. I feel better than I have felt In several years. I have just started my second bottle of it and will give another opinion when I complete this bottle. So far I am very happy with this product.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: Hi, I'm a 35-year old male with Hypogonadism (primary testicular failure not producing any sperm and smaller testies). My T level was 200 nmol/L which is below the lower limit of the normal range. This is day 2 on being on Axiron (60 mg / day dose) and I already feel different: my mental cloudiness is gone, I have more energy and I don't need to drink that much coffee to stay awake. Got a strong 'morning wood' like I haven't had in years. Erections, orgasms also quite improved already! I feel that my body is finally performing at the level it should be. Yeah! The only downside is I observed myself snapping momentarily with anger for small things.. I'll keep posting about my experience. I can't believe how different I feel in just 2 days!

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: Have fought low Testosterone levels for 10 years (starting in my mid-30's). T-level range untreated=<200. Initially, used Testim but it was much too sticky with transfer concerns and because my body did not absorb it well my levels would never get above low-normal. Was on Striant for several years and it works pretty well but dosing is 2x per day so I could not handle using in evening (kept me awake, anxious, etc). Two months ago, I was prescribed Axiron and it's the best testosterone replacement! Applying under the arm eliminates most or any transfer concern and because it's alcohol based, it dries quickly. I did switch to spray deodorant because roll-ons became sticky. Most important, I feel great all day and evening and my levels are 500's which seem to be my best.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: My husband's testosterone levels have been crashing. He is on opioid for a spinal fusion that did not take. His total testosterone level 3 days ago was 35 when it should be between 550-700! No that is not a typing error. You can imagine how he was feeling. He has just started the Axiron so it is to early to tell. I wanted to let everyone know that on Axiron's website, there is a phone number your doctor can call and the company will send a copay card that will make your cost, even with insurance, $25.00 per month. The card will pay up to $75 per monthly prescription. The card is good for 11 months. Hope this helps! It is definitely some pricey stuff!

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: I'm 59, good shape, pretty well preserved. Prostate removed due to cancer. Levels were around 150. Started Axiron and energy level, libido improved. Levels now around 650. Happy with results but having redness under arms and a few small skin tags. I started putting on my calves until I can get my Dr to return my calls

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: I was on Androgel when I read about Axiron. While Androgel was OK, it didn't seem to do much for my libido. It did help with weight loss but other effects were mild. I asked my doctor to switch my prescription, which he did. Wow, this stuff really upped my libido significantly. I am 69 and feeling more like 45. Other than the mild burning after applying it (like some deodorants) I have not experienced any negative side effects. Application, once you realize you don't push the pump like you do with Androgel (sends it flying), but press slowly and apply slowly it is actually faster and easier to do with less mess. I would highly recommend trying this if you are having problems with diminished libido.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: I got a free 30 day supply to try and outside of getting used to filling the delivery system I found it was not difficult at all to use. When I started using it the force from the pump was so great it made about 1/4 of the liquid fly out and land on the counter. I learn to slowly fill the cup with the container on it's side worked without losing any product. Otherwise only slight swelling of my ankles and my nipples but not a bother. Wish I could have found a Part D company that has this on formulary. I did not find it on any formulary so will have to switch back to the injections which I hate. I would definitely continue with this if I could afford it.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: Happy, hard and excited again says it all.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: Switched from Androgel to Axiron 3 weeks ago as total T levels slipped back into low range. Effects were immediate and noticeable. Great workouts, better mood, more energy, increased libido and truly major physical changes! I'm 50 years old and for the first time in my life I have a lean, flat stomach and without changing my workout at all. My weights at the gym have increased by about 20%. I do 45 mins of lifting, 30 mins of cardio 4-5 times a week. In three weeks, my body has changed completely and people are noticing! Go back to Dr. in 3 weeks to check levels....so far, it's been amazing for me.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: Lilly told me that my undershirt is still a risk to my family after 10 hours. How am I supposed to manage that? Many people do laundry in my house. Shirts are in baskets and the laundry shoot. I can't get everyone to wash their hands every time they touch something of mine.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: Well my experience isn't as positive as most. I've been on Axiron for about 4 months, 2 pumps a day. When I began my total Testosterone was 209. Today it is 130, so it dropped about 80 points in 4 months while on this. Early on it did seem to improve things. Application isn't the best as it tends to run and drip. I also burned quite a bit which I eventually got used to. I am switching to Androgel which I've used in the past, and will hopefully have better results with that one. Overall Axiron is worth a shot if you have low T because it does seem to help quite a few guys - just not me.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: Gentlemen I am following up with my prior review of AXIRON. Now that I have been on it for two months there are a couple of well, downsides to this and depending upon how you view such things you may find them a negative. My "boys" have indeed gotten smaller (not to a huge degree) and the amount of "ejaculate" I put out is much, MUCH less. At 53 I don't give a care about those things but some do. I have lost a full inch of fat off my waste, sex is great again. I actually feel like doing things again to working out more, etc. etc. Whatever tradeoffs there are they are worth it.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: Went to my doctor to discuss issues with erectile dysfunction. All I got was a prescription for Viagra. Didn't like the side effects. Doctor ordered tests to rule out problems with plugged arteries. After that was ruled out, I pushed for a testosterone test, free and total . Results were below the normal range. He prescribed 60 mg of Axiron per day. After 8 weeks my total T went fro 300 to 1300 with free rising from 7 to 33. Feel great with lots of energy, positive attitude, and erectile problems are gone.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: For about 8 months or so I had started to feel completely different than I had ever felt in life. Now at 53 years old, I don't expect to feel like 20 but I sure didn't want to feel dead either. No interest in things, no libido at all, depressed, moody and didn't care. I had no energy...none! My first thought was it was thyroid related since I suffer from Hypothyroidism and just thought the meds needed to be changed. My doctor and I discussed it, took the various blood tests etc. The thyroid was fine but my testosterone levels had fallen almost 200 points since the previous test about a year ago. So, my doc put me on a one month trial of Axiron and what a difference. Numbers up 100 no more complaints!

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: I had some weird side effects while on this medication. I experienced gout in one ankle then I had a tooth abscess then I had a sinus infection and then tooth pain. Not sure if these things were actually side effects of Axiron or just a coincidence. I felt incredible in between the side effects though and slept better and had more energy. Not sure if I will continue taking it.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: I am a 50 year old male and pre-Axiron, testosterone tested out at 323 in the morning. I was feeling tired, sluggish, no sex drive and falling asleep in the early evening. I started using 60 mg a day of Axiron. I noticed a huge increase in energy and increased libido during the first two days. Day three I could feel the effects of Axiron tapering off and I returned to feeling tired and sluggish. After one month of using Axiron, a morning test of my testosterone tested out at 257. Axiron dosage was just increased to 90 mg a day. I am not sure why Axiron would work initially and then stop working. I will give the 90 mg a day of Axiron a try for another month and have my testosterone re-tested.

Axiron (testosterone) for Hypogonadism, Male: This was my first testosterone supplement. My testosterone level was 249. My doctor prescribed Axiron - 1 pump under each arm (60mg) daily. In about six weeks, my testosterone level rose to 766. My method of application was to wash under each arm with a soapy washcloth to remove any anti-perspirant, dry well, apply at bedtime. Then I would shower and apply anti-perspirant as normal each morning. Although the supplied instructions stated differently, I was told by my doctor that the anti-perspirant would block the absorption of the Axiron, so I made sure that it was all removed prior to application.
