Gels vs. Injects your personal experience and preference

[zaarel2]

As the title says.....which form of HRT has been most beneficial to you? Listing subjective pros and cons of each as well as any pertinent test results would be great. Hopefully its ok to post a poll like this. Although I have seen comments on this topic scattered throughout this and other forums I thought it would be interesting to see them consolidated.

For me it has been 200mg of cyp every 12-14 days and Indolplex DIM half a tab nightly. I was on Androgel for a year and didn't get hardly any where with it. Finally glad to be free of the daily mess.

This could be a great thread.

For me its 100mg cyp/week, 250IU hCG 2x per week, 2.5 DIM tablets daily (Phytopharmica 120mg/tab). My TMG is on the way.

I was on AndroGel for about 8-9 months, it worked very well for me, but I really like the injections b/c it is a 2 minute deal and you don't have to worry about it again for another week. Instead of getting up early in the morning, so I have an extra 5-10 minutes to apply the gels, every single day. Then having to worry about it coming in contact with my two daughters or having to revolve my days activities around the application of the gel. So I vote weekly injections all the way.

250 mg Testosterone Enanthate (Brandname "Androtardyl") every 14 days,
25 mg Zinc daily,
vitamin B-12 complex. I am on it for three months. Doesn't help me much.

Used to be on 1500IU HCG every 4 days for 6 months. Did not help me.

My T-level before starting HRT was 220 ng/dl on average. I never used AAS.

No contest: gels did nothing for me. Definitely go for the HCG @ low doses 2x/week.

Thanks for all the reponses guys. I look forward to reading even more. I myself cant comment really as I have only tried Gel so far although I recently have addded daily low dose HCG.

I am doing 150 mgs. of Depo T every week and 500 IU's of Hcg 3 times a week. I have been on TRT for over 21 yrs. and this is the best I have felt ever.
