I recently started trt 1 week ago through the general health care. The only starting option was transdermal gels so I chose Testavan. I know gels are shit, but had no choice. My dose is 3 pumps on each shoulder in the morning (69 mg of test).

Yesterday I took bloods on the behalf of my self… I took throughs in the morning 24 h since last dosage. My results were 12 nmol/l test and 5.9 free test (up from 10 nmol/l) since starting. Absolutely shit.

Is it to early to throw this garbage in the pile, or can i expect any build up of T?

Gels are in and out of the system really quick if I understand the pharmacokinetics correctly? They usually measure peaks and not throughs on gels, kind of retarded?

Hard to say. Are you showering and washing your shoulders before application? Or are you applying the gel to a bunch of dead skin cells?

May also need two applications daily. Seems inconvenient but gotta figure that out for yourself.

Im not showering everytime before application. But I am cleaning my application sites with water and a towel before applying the gel. I am also exfoliating 2 times per week and using skinlotion about 1 hour after applying. Sometimes I also derma roll before applying.

As you say I gotta figure out what’s best for me and Im still in the early stage.
 
It is anecdotal from people who it works for, but shaved pits and testicles seem to be what works. Testicles supposedly increase DHT conversion, but again, anecdote.
