Before Fortesta, I had all the symptoms of low-T. Lack of energy, lack of motivation, grumpy, lack of endurance, sleep issues, decline in sexual performance/satisfaction, difficulty losing weight, etc. After starting Fortesta, every one of those symptoms declined markedly or went away. For me, it could not have been more effective. I am an older athlete and I expected to see a big increase in ...

Hypogonadism - on it for several years now at 20 to 20mg per day (2 to 3 pumps). Increases libido and stamina. No identifiable side effects over time.

Started Treatment for low libido with Fortesta Gel 6 weeks ago, used 2 pumps each thigh for 5 weeks, pump ran out. Went back to doctor today, testosterone levels raised less than 100 points after 5 weeks! Doctor prescribed 3 pumps a day for 6 more weeks, I did not feel any difference after the first 5 weeks!

Starting just two hours after my first dose, I felt a big change in mental awareness and my sluggishness went away. My headache went away and I was able to actually focus. Day 2 my self confidence came back and I was full of energy and self esteem. I stepped on the scale and for the first time it did not say LOSE WEIGHT FAT BOY. It just gave me a number. It is definitely not a placebo effect. I hope it lasts. I compare it to taking 4 caffeine pills without the jitters and sweats. My T-levels were tested twice and they were 148 and just over 200. Anyone want to arm wrestle?Read More Read Less

Lets get this straight first - I am 70 years old and have been on HRT since I was 62 due to a doctor making a mistake and giving me wrong meds for BPH which resulted in permanent shut down of my testicals. First I was on the pellets and had a bad reaction to them, then I was on the stuff you smear all over you chest and abdomen for three years when my insurance decided they did not want to pay for it. I have been on this stuff for two years now and it works just fine. I know that I won't be a stud from this or any other medication so believe me when I say that my energy level is up where it is supposed to be and my wife is VERY happy with our love life.

I have been on Fortesta going on 45 months now, 4 pumps per day. I have noticed that once I get into the 4th week of a pump, around 110 - 115 pumps, that the amount of medication delivered with some of the pumps is less that normal. Has anyone else experienced any issues with inconsistent amounts of the gel being delivered? Thanks

I an 76 years old and have low T (72). After being on this drug for 3 months now have good erections and wife is much more satisfied. Prior to taking this there was no semen at ejaculation. Now as much or more than when I was younger. No side effects. I will be tested in another month to see the T increase. Love this and will continue to use it.

Pros: I'm starting to feel better after 2 pumps on each leg, for 4 weeks. It is very easy to use. Con: It takes a while for the gel to dry even after rubbing it in and once dry it feels sticky.

Noticed significant improvement in sexual desire after 3 weeks using 4 pumps. At 6 weeks I suddenly had a very nervous/anxious feeling in my stomach and loss of appetite. I cut back to 2 pumps and symptoms decreased. I stopped using fortesta for a week and then began 1 pump a day for a week or so. I then increased to 2 pumps and I have no side effects at all. I've been on 2 to 3 pumps daily for about 5 weeks and feel great. Increased sexual desire, & improved blood flow. I have also noticed mentally I feel less stressed and more of a positive feeling. Hard to describe it but I feel a lot better. I run 15-20 miles a week and work out but can't say I feel any real difference in exercise performance. Fortesta is a winner I my book, I definitely think it's worth a try.Read More Read Less

I am a 44 year old treated for only 11 days at present, I find this product very uneasy to use. It takes a extreme amount of time to dry and have not seen any improvement yet. My T levels where in the low 300's at time of starting treatment. A constant concern is transfer to My Wife or Our Grandson's, waiting to dress for up to 45 min. takes up alot of My morning getting ready for work. Will repost at 4 weeks with results.

Positive experience in that it has increased my low energy level and T levels. Took a couple of months to get right dosage. Too high of a dose and I get a little shakey. Levels must fluctuate a little, even when correct dosage. Only takes a few minutes for application area to dry. I only take 3 pumps and I rub the excess on my calves just to make it dry faster. PSA is OK at present. No side effects. Have been taking it about a year plus. 59 years old. Has helped my libido but that wasn't my purpose for taking it. Read More Read Less

So, I switched to this because the other Test booster made me sick to my stomach. All I have to say is you have to give it time for your body to kick in. After several months it started working. I have been working out and WoW its def working, also hard as rock if you know what I mean.Just give it some time and don't skip days.

After a little over a month I am feeling a bit more energy. I go today to get blood drawn to re-check testosterone levels which were previously at 168. Only thing I don't like is that the applicator pump is terribly inconsistent with how much comes out per pump. Sometimes almost none comes out even holding perfectly upright.

I'm a 26 year old who has been taking this for about 4 months now. I have a pituitary tumore that causes my body to not make testosterone. When i got tested my test level was 98. needless to say that I was tired and my sex drive was non existant. I have since been taking fortesta, 4 pumps a day. granted, it does take some time to dry, but I have noticed a difference. Also, this medicine does take a little time to feel the effects. 2 month ago, my levels were tested and they were at 320. I understand that this is still low, but it is a great increase over my base line. My sex drive has increased and I have more energy and strength. I will not get my levels check again until Jan. of 2013 but I hope my levels will continue to increase, I hope my endo will increase the pumps also so I can be in the desireable 600-700 range.
