The only difference is the delivery

[Guest guest]

Testosterone is Testosterone. Once the ester cleaves off of the cyponate and

other

injectables the molecule is for all intents and purposes identical to the

testosterone found

in gels, creams, and pellets. It is all made from the same yams and soy whether

it is

generic or name brand. Andractim on the other hand is chemically different as

androstanalone is a man made version of DHT.

As for your endo's claim that gels and patches do not deliver enough Test to

treat

hypgonadism, I question this assertion. I have never heard of any one liking

the patches

and that they typically do not absorb as well as creams. My own experince has

validated

this claim.

If you were using a 10% quality compound Testosterone cream and you apply it to

the

inside of your wrists, barring a very major absorbtion problem, you can get your

T up

pretty high. I know this because mine was at 1200 plus.

With any topically applied testosterone whether generic or name brand the key

variable is

absorbtion. So someone who's skin does not absorb the Testosterone very well

will have a

harder time getting his total T into the 800 plus level, but it can be done. At

the same

time Body builders are not going to like to use creams and gels because they

are

shooting for supraphysiological T levels that are much easier acheived with

injectables.

I agree with Phil- T is T once the ester group cleaves away from the T moleclue

in the case

of injectables, and the only differences are the means of devivery into the

blood stream.

Each delivery method whether it be injectables, pellets, creams, gels, patches

and oral test

undecanote have their advantages and disadvanages.
