Androderm/DMSO and other questions

[Guest guest]

I've been on Androderm for 5 days. I previously asked about using

DMSO with it, and YBESLOW responded that he didn't think it'd do

much, because the amount of T in the patch is what determines how

much gets in your system (hope I remembered that right, YBESLOW). But

in reading the insert and also the info at their web page, the amount

of T in the patch is 12.5, but only 2.5 is delivered. That's only

20%. Seems like it just makes sense to try and get more into the

bloodstream by using DMSO.

Another question: when I change patches, I don't notice any less gel

in the used patch than in the new one. And being frugal like I am, I

hate wasting the gel that's remaining. Has anyone experimented with

removing the remaining gel and using it? I don't think I'll do it,

but I am curious as to the advantage and disadvantage.

One last question: everyone refers to T in grams - Androderm lists it

in milligrams. What's up with that?
