Androderm Testosterone

Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone and androgen in males. In humans, testosterone plays a key role in the development of male reproductive tissues such as testicles and prostate, as well as promoting secondary sexual characteristics such as increased muscle and bone mass, and the growth of body hair. It is associated with increased aggression, sex drive, dominance, courtship display, and a wide range of behavioral characteristics. In addition, testosterone in both sexes is involved ...

Is it safe to use axiron and androderm simultaneously? I was on axiron for a year and my Urologist prescribed androderm. I read that axiron delivers 30 mgs of test versus 5 mg that androderm delivers. Will this drop in dosage cause unwanted side effects? ## Hello, Ed! How are you? Which dosage of the Androderm was prescribed? There is more than one available and how often do you change the patch via the prescribing instructions? A dosage change may result in your feeling more tired and having a lower libido for a few days, until your body adjusts. ## I was prescribed the 2 mg patches but they come off too easily especially when I sweat. My Urologist told me to go back to Axiron and one pump per armpit. Testosterone is the best. Test is best ...after a year on it I feel great. My concern...

I've used both testoderm and androderm,and one brand works on me while the other brand does not.Any comments? ## Which works better? ## In my opinion,Testoderm works best. Androderm does nothing for me. ## It can vary from person to person, so it is best to use what works best for you. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including weight changes, irritability, mood changes, and increased libido. What dosage have you each been prescribed?

I read old post and Androderm sure got a lot of bashing. I have yet to have one fall off. Actually they are hard to take off. Had the glue stick to me after i removed it. I showered with one on just to see and it would not come off, even using a scubby cloth on it. I found out if I take a shot shower and scrub where the patch was, the red spot does not last as long. that is the only two complaints I have is the spot it leaves on my body and itches like crazy. I hope my levels continue to increase. I only had them on for a month. I have to wait 2 more months before new blood work. My balls have not shrunk or my hair fallen out like i read in older posts. I hope I get good results. Only think so far is the muscles stiffness is gone. I am getting workouts at the gym too. I been really hung...

Getting information is difficult. It seems every person is different on Androderm. The first 2 weeks on 2mg patch was good. Morning erections, sex thoughts, good sleep, then after the 2 weeks, things seems to subside and now nothing. I was tested after 2 weeks on 2mg and my total t was up from 301 to 331 and free t was up from 42 to 72. My doctor said stay on the 2mg and retest in 2 1/2 months which would make me on Androderm for 3 months. I am worried nothing is going to improve. Why was the first 2 weeks amazing and now nothing? Do I just need to be patient. I found out the body only produces about 6mg a day. The doctor is trying to find a level that does not interfere with my natural production and shut it down. If you take too much T, it will shut down what your body is making. Hope...

I was taking 10 mg of Androderm every 24 hours for treatment of Low-testosterone. I just switched from an endocrinologist to a urologist and he wanted me to discontinue the patch and wait 4 weeks and get retested. I was hoping it would be out of my system much faster? ## How long once Androderm is stopped does it take for that medication in the system have NO effect in subsequent testing?

I have used Axiron for 3 months. Last Feb, Mar and April. Then my insurance would no longer cover this very expensive medication. BUT it has worked better than any other testosterone replacement I've tried. I've tried Testim, Androgel, Androderm and injections. Axiron worked very well for me. T levels went from 195 to over 800. Much more energy and confidence. I also had to use Axiron first, then apply my Mitchum. I got skin tags but so what. Here is the bad part. After insurance dropping it, my levels plunged. I actually started getting hot flashes b/c my doc said my system stopped making testosterone all together since using Axiron. I went back to Androderm and the hot flashes stopped. I got a free 30 day supply of Axiron and after 25 days, my libido was thru the roof. Erectio...

I just got prescribed androderm and I am in a drug and alcohol program. Will the alcohol on the androderm patch make me test positive for alcohol?
