In the search for an easy way to increase testosterone, many men are
looking at creams and gels and patches.
The first rule is dont self diagnosis or self medicate see your
doctor. There is a specific test that will show just how low the
testosterone level is. You need this information before you start any
course of replacement testosterone therapy.
A testosterone level of 300-1,000 ng/dl is considered normal. That is a
pretty big range. What works for one man may be way off for another. The
fact is that men simply slow down production of testosterone as they age.
The highest level is around age 17 (who would have ever guessed that).
Research shows that the level decreases an average of 1.2% a year.
Side Effects of Testosterone Creams
These are possible side effects which are usually mild but can grow
more severe unless treatment is given.
Depression mood disorders and anxiety
Stomach pain and indigestion
High Blood pressure because of fluid retention
Headaches and or Dizziness
Skin irritation in the area where the cream is applied.
Prostate problems if you already have prostate problems you must not
use testosterone cream
Testosterone cream is rubbed into different areas of the body just once
a day. It can be applied to thighs, stomach area, arms or shoulders. To
avoid skin irritation, the application area should be alternated every
day.
This ritual does not go on continuously you will have to take a break
after 8 weeks of use.
Replacement Testosterone Therapy requires a doctor to closely monitor
the PSA (prostate specific antigen) levels.
