What is better? Testosterone Injections or Gels?
Nov 6, 2008

I am currently on testosterone enanthate, one injection every two weeks. Is there an actual advantage to using testim, the gel? I have all options available to me.

Response from Mr. Vergel

If you are used to the injections, you may not feel the same "lift" by the gels. The injections cost around $80 a month compared to $1100 a month for Testim or Androgel. Some people argue that gels are better to keep your testosterone blood levels more constant and to avoid "peaks and valleys"

Some people love the daily gels. I am an injection guy since I do not want to deal with daily application.

Also, most people do not know that you can get better and more concentrated testosterone gels from compounding pharmacies at around $60 a month.
