I've used the Angroderm, Androgel, Testim Gel, and am on the Enan injections. I started with the patches but had issues getting the dosage in due to the patches falling off. The gels worked great, the only issue was with insurance. The cost is greatly reduced with the injections but you feel the hormones wear down as you get further out from the treatment. I was going every two weeks, but after 11-12 days, I was completely out of energy. Currently, I am weekly and doing better.
