Hello
If you are not familiar with my situation- i was on androgel and it was going very good. I felt good with a very good sx drive!
I started using a DHT gel,, and within a week or two i had lost all benefits of Androgel.
My hypothesis is that the DHT gel caused my androgen receptors to down regulate. DHT is a much stronger androgen than testosterone and on the Andractim website it says:
"After continued use of topical DHT, the androgen receptors begin to down-regulate. This make the DHT less effective over time. To combat this you take breaks to allow the androgen receptors to up-regulate back to normal. Then you can begin another growth cycle"
Which confirms my suspicion that this stupid gel screwed me up!
I am off Androgel for 14 days now.
Would 30 days be enough for my androgen receptors to up regulate? Or should I wait 60days?
I threw the DHT gel into the garbage.
Thank you kindly,
