Hello! I am the man who first started taking the medicine only a few days ago (in a different post that you can read on here). I promised myself that I would get back to this website and write about how I am doing now that I have been taking this medicine for around 6 months now. I originally went from 1 1/2cc every 2 weeks to 2 1/2 cc every 2 weeks. I am feeling GREAT. My wife has noticed that I Have a more "upright" stance when I stand up, my shoulders are more rolled back, I have lost about 15 pounds of fat and gained about 15 pounds of muscle! On an emotional level, I have taken anything from anxiety medicine to paxil and ever since I have started my testosterone, I have never felt better about myself! This has been the greatest drug I have ever been prescribed! Not to mention it boosts up my sex drive as well so my wife is very happy too. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this drug. Thank GOD for my doctor for finding out that my levels were so low (among other things) and prescribing this to me! Don't suffer! And don't be afraid to use the shot- you will get used to it after a few times and it will be just as easy as taking a vitamin. Good luck to all and thank you! :) Read More Read Less

I'm a 35 yr old male taking this medication for low test levels. The suspected reason is opiate maintenance treatment, which can reduce or stop your body from being able to produce its own testosterone. I can definitely say that it has made an enormous difference in my libido. Before starting injections, I hadn't wanted sex in over 3 years. My wife was ready for divorce. I've been on it for 3 months know, and I think my wife is ready to start hiding my testosterone vial from me. On the flip side, on my last visit to my MD, my testosterone levels looked good, but my estrogen levels had become elevated. The Doc says this is sometimes caused by these injections, and now we are trying to adjust dosage to compensate. Haven't really noticed any difference in energy levels, but I'm perfectly happy being back from the land of the nuetered. Don't suffer, if you suspect symptoms, get your levels tested, you'll be glad you didRead More Read Less

an injury at the age of 13 caused permanebt loss of the testicles. I have been on testosterone treatment since 26 ( 50 years). injections were used until 2ooo when patches were tried which caused a skin reaction. next salve was used which was a mess and dis not seem to enter the systen effectively. back ti injection came in 2004. this methid has proved to be far the best. intected at a rate or 200ml biweekly. Improved strength and mental attidude are only two of the noticible benefits. The sexual side is also positive. Read More Read Less

I had a 100 reading of testosterone and my Dr. perscribed this drug. It has worked great with an increase in sexdrive, muscle mass, and energy. My Type 2 diabetes is improved.

I first started taking this medication only a few days ago. The first shot of it was given by my doctor when he showed me how to properly give myself a shot. After only an hour of being on the medication, I started feeling better! I thought that it was just because I was so happy to be on testosterone, but in fact, it helped my depression which is an underlined problem and not a main problem that I am having! I have had massive trauma to my back in my life, have been in chronic pain, have had trauma to my testicles, and also I am hoping to gain muscle in my back because I do not have any (due to so much pain in my back). I am really hoping that this will work and I am praying that I will gain some muscle in my back and lose some of the extra fat in my belly. Even though I have only been on this a few days, I am already feeling better on a emotional level and I sure do hope that it will work for building muscle and raising my testosterone levels to a normal range again. The doctor said that I will be on this medicine for the rest of my life. I take 1 1/2cc every 2 weeks for now, and he said that I will be bumped up to 2cc every 2 weeks next month. It seems to be a wonder drug from what I have read and what I have already gained by using this medicine! Thank God for doctors because I feel great already! :) Read More Read Less

I'm on this drug for low testosterone and elevated estrogen levels. I've been doing my cycles for the past 100 days and have noticed an increase in sexual libido, more facial hair growth, weight loss, muscle growth, a stronger body odors when sweating, increase in assertiveness or aggression and a loss in sleep time. I have very little change or even a slight decrease in energy. I've also noticed a slight decrease in the amount of sperm produced. As for the use of the drug, once you get over the needle phobia aspects, it is very easy to use and is not painful. My dose is low (150 mg.), so I’m not anticipating and damage to internal organs or muscle ligaments and I take the drug as prescribed (1x every 6 days). As for the conflicting studies I’ve read about the use of anabolic steroids, it appears that you will find the “pros” and “cons” about any drug or treatment for whatever ails you. Overall, I do feel better for taking this treatment as prescribed by my doctor.Read More Read Less

I'm 28 yrs old male with extremely low testosterone levels, and just started the injections a week ago. I inject 1 ML (200mg) every week, and have found that injecting the RX is much easier than I originally thought. It took about 3 days to start feeling the effects, and about 4 days after that the 1st dose peaks. On top of the testosterone injections, my DR has prescribed estrogen blockers to minimize side effects, because the body turns testosterone into estrogen. So far I have tons more energy, contentration is better, sex drive up, depression gone, and increased confidence. The only side effect I've noticed is that I have woken up with a bad headache for two days which Advil took care of. I wish that I was prescribed this sooner, because it seemed as though the two doctors I went to were scared to prescribe it even though all tests/labs showed I needed it!Read More Read Less

I use this every 8 days after trying various doses and amounts. It does a lot for my quality of life and I'm very glad its around. Sex drive, energy mood all great. If its not lasting long enough (as another poster described) speak to your Doctor and ask to adjust either the dose of frequency of injections. Don't suffer in silence.

I use this drug to prevent HIV wasting, basically loss of muscle mass and to keep fat from overtaking my body. It does a good job of this, but the fact that it has to be injected is inconvenient. I am not willing to inject myself, therefore I must visit my doctor's office every time I need an injection. Also, in addition to this being by FAR the most effective delivery mechanism, it's the only one that my insurance will pay for 100%, because I am getting it through my doctor, not the pharmacy. Androgel and Testim were the methods I'd tried before this and they worked less effectively and my insurance jacked the price up on them so high that I couldn't afford them anymore.Read More Read Less

I have hypogonadism. My body makes and extremely low amount of testosterone and that is the purpose for taking this medication. The one thing I caution is that it does not last as long as they say it should in me. They say it should last about 2-3 weeks but it only lasts about 10 days before I start to notice the effects of low levels of testosterone again. I still wait the last four days because this is not a drug to be misused. However, used properly, it will give wonderful results.
