Help ladies! My doctor has prescribed Testogel 50mg 5gm sachets which I just picked up tonight. She told me to use a whole sachet on my inner arm and that it will be a bit like a patch and give me a consistent dose over the 10 days.

So I’ve covered my arm in a whole sachet then thought I’d have a look on here to see how others have got on with it. To my shock and horror I realised I’m only meant to have a blob each day over 10 days, not the whole sachet at once! What shall I do? I washed my arm when I realised about an hour after I applied it. I’m panicking a bit now worrying what it’s going to do to me. Please any advice would be so appreciated! xx

Hi

If you’ve only done it once I very much doubt anything will happen especially if you washed it off.

Don’t worry.

Probably not a lot!  GPs really need to learn how to explain thoroughly to patients how to use various treatments 

Try not to stay awake waiting for side effects  and let us know how you feel in the morning.

God I hope you’re right Nik. I feel a bit wired but that’s probably just me flapping. What an eeejit!! I should have known to check here first 

Thanks for your reply x

Ha! Love that.

I feel much calmer now thanks. Mind started working overtime earlier thinking I’d become a man overnight or something. I’ll let you know if I wake up with a beard in the morning
