Question for those using transdermal gels

[larrygreg]

I am currently unsing Testim.

I was wondering if the soap I use to shower with could be imparing my absorbability. If a transdermal is absorbed in the skin, most of todays soaps/shower gels contain a moisturizer. Could these "block" the skin and slow down or impare the absorbability of transdermal medicines?

Thanks,
LarryG

I do not think so. Testim has an emolient in it already, too.

In fact, for those with very sensitive skin, Testim may be a better choice than Androgel, which can dry the skin.
