I am a 69 year old male. I have been on the 2Mg pact only several days. The best news is this drug has made me more alert and able to do things around the house. I am less tired. and my mental attitude has improved. I was not expecting anything from the first dose. Was I ever surprised. An hour and half after dosing, I had a good erection. The next morning I woke with a hard on. Neither...

My husband started using the 4mg Androderm patches and noticed enlarged NON-tender lymph nodes in his neck. Has anyone had this experience?? He has a history of Hodgkin's lymphoma so he's seen his oncologist & has a biopsy scheduled. I'd rather this be some sort of rare reaction to the patches verses a Hodgkin's relapse.

I feel much better on the patch. For an unknown reason my pituitary gland is not making LH. The patch does not stick well and I have painful bright red raised rashes where the patch was applied. I am young and like to take off my shirt so I am having a hard time finding places to put it. Quality and frequency of erections is much improved. My mood and memory are much better. My condition is not just age related androgen deficiency so I have other things going on but the patch is much better and more consistent than Depo-T injections.Read More Read Less

Androderm was prescribed for lack of energy and Low T. After two weeks I started to feel great with less back pain, more energy and back to taking care of business. After 23 days I woke up one morning and was shocked to see 6 bright red rashes where patches were placed. They itched like crazy and took weeks for the strawberry raised rash to go away. Stopped using them and hope there is something else in the marketplace that will work

No problems with sticking, I do not wear it in the shower (apply after) some occassional redness and minor itch after removal... It has fixed my fatigue problem and have increased libido (unfortunetly) after 45 years of marriage, partner chooses not to participate.. It is increased my appetitie which isnt good, so have to be very careful about carbs and calories

I am a Type 1 diabetic for the past 29 years. Was often tired, moderately depressed, no desire to do much of anything. My testosterone level was extremely low. I started the Androderm patch about 15 months ago. I feel much better physically and mentally. I have more energy than before. The side effects has been an increase in allergic reaction to the site. Red patches, itchy and slightly burning are becoming more and more frequent. This didn't happen much for the first year, but increased a lot in the past three months. I would definitely recommend it as a help to those men with low T levels.Read More Read Less

35-40yr old male, diabetic for 30yrs. Haven't had desire to make love. Wasn't able to stay hard, very tiered all the time and no matter what I did couldn't loose weight. Just started one day woke up this morning with a erection. I was going to open a bottle of champain, haven't happened since I was a teen ! Leading up to this all,I didn't even know about low Testosterone and the afects it has on men until I saw a comercial and heard the Guy talking about his symptoms and decided to tell my doctor what I was feeling, so I was tested and the results shock me my level was 130 ! At my age it should be in the 500 ! So here I am. To get the Patch to stick I use medical tape and it stays on. If you are like me and are feeling the way I did don't waste time and tell your doctor to check your Test, because you will be happy you did ! Good Luck & God BlessRead More Read Less

I took this medication because I have MS, which led to very low testosterone levels (I'm 39). The patch caused severe burns that I could not tolerate, switched to the gel (Testim)and am much more satisfied.

These patches have helped me regain the energy level I once had in my 20s. It also boosted my mood and decreased anxiety levels. On the downside, the side effect is irritably and unattractive. I experienced very noticeable red rashes where the patches were placed. These rashes have been extremely itchy and takes 2 to 4 weeks to clear up!
