I spent a lot of time on this forum looking for info (and hope) before getting testosterone added my HRT prescription so I thought I'd share my experience of Testogel at 10 weeks.
Hope it helps someone.
So, I've been using the testogel for 10 weeks now. Dose is a 50mg sachet over 10 days, so roughly 5mg per day.
(I'm also on Lenzetto and Utrogestan, which I was using well before adding the Testogel.)
At this point the testosterone benefits are most definitely there in all the areas I hoped it would improve - which were regaining lost mental clarity, motivation, energy, and physical strength and stamina. Libido wasn't a massive concern for me, but that had dropped off a cliff too.
Don't get me wrong, it hasn't been a magic fix all. I'm not "there" yet, but things are going in the right direction.
I can relate to what I've seen many other women post here and elsewhere about the progressive improvements - very gradual and more noticeable some days than others.
Actually, that said, I could do with my libido cooling off a bit. The nightly sex dreams and "noticing" men a lot more were fun at first, but are getting kind of inconvenient and distracting now!
I've read a lot of posts where women say this happens in the early stages of TRT and then calms down, so hopefully it'll go that way for me rather than ramping up further!
I am mostly hoping for further improvements on the mental side and more muscle (re)gain.
I don't want to speak too soon, it's still early days, but I haven't noticed any unwanted side effects as yet (apart from the overactive libido).
I don't usually get away with much but maybe life is throwing me a bone for once on this!
Have to say though, the sides would have to be very bad to outweigh the benefits I'm seeing, especially if things continue getting better, so I'm not too worried about them.
Very interested to hear other women's experiences and happy to answer questions.
