Testosterone Blood/serum Test Reads Too Low??

Updated

I have found several papers which state that serum test for testosterone reads too low in the case of topical application of T, which of course we do with Androgel, so consequently people are taking too much in order to get their levels up. They say salivary test is a better indicator. Taking too much is obviously not good for one's health. Is this real or not??
