Hi there Gilla
I noticed none of those side effects whatsoever - and as already said the general advice is that changes can take up to 4-5 months to be felt!! Not sure about sex drive. Mine did not improve (ie libido) although response was completely restored!
The only change I have experienced is hair growth at the application site. I used to apply to upper inner thigh, then inside of knee and now to sole of foot ( following sheila99) but sadly I think my hairy thighs are here to stay

. Nothing that a razor won't deal with though and a small price to pay....just have to remember to wear my glasses in the sunny summer when I wear v short shorts because otherwise I don't see the hairs!!! Oh the joys of being a woman!
I wouldn't have thought weight gain would be shown that quickly?
Using tostran is more likely to produce spikes in testosterone because it is twice as concentrated as testogel sachets. As such I would not want to use it though many women do. What dose and product do you use?
It is important to have a tesosterone ( and SHBG) test some months or weeks after starting T to ensure that your dose is not too high.
CLKD - the virilisation (voice deepening) you refer to is a myth when levels are maintained within female physiological range. Could it be perpetrated by men wishing to deny women this important hormone?! Yes decreased sex drive is indeed hormonal although some medications can also produce this undesirable effect.
