Comment:
I had low T 352. Very low energy level and other issues. I can definitely tell a difference when I apply the gel and when I don't. Have increased energy level, lost a bit of weight ang in general feel good. I do notice some sensitivity and rash in the application area (upper arm and shoulder areas.) I am afraid to stop using because of the energy difference I have felt.

Comment:
6 months ago I was prescribed Androgel 2% daily because of a testosterone score of 362, which is very low for my age (early 40's). 6 months later with regular use as recommended I'm down to a score of 250! So obviously hasn't worked for me and as a bad side effect my testicles are about half the size they used to be! Hope they get back to normal after I stop using this crappy product!
