Anybody with low testosterone use this instead of injections? Due to my insurance going away it seems like a low cost solution. Doc gave me the info packet with card, but says it may not absorb as good as injections.

Never heard of it. I use the androgel as I have the T levels of a 90 year old man

It works for me but is expensive as hell. I pay $75 for a 3 month supply through my insurance mail prescription service. I think without insurance that stuff would cost $300 a month, no way I could afford that

So its a topical cream/gel like the androgel?

OP I would think that the shots of test would be the cheapest route if you dont have insurance. YMMV.

I am losing my insurance so I was looking for a cheaper option.

its an alcohol solution that you pump into a cup, then rub into your arm pits.
truly a solution in search of a problem if ever there was one.
but I guess if you can get docs to prescribe it, you can make money on it.

Testim seems to work better for me.

Testim is messier to apply but I feel noticeably stronger at the gym with it (1 tube - 50 mG / day) than with Axiron (2 pumps - 60 mG / day).

That's a lot cheaper than the Testim that I tried. It was a topical that was going to run me about $10/dose after the manuf. incentives ran out. It didn't really do much for me. I guess I'll just have to wait until my numbers get low enough that my insurance company agrees that I have a problem.

maybe you should ask for the axiron card.

Hey Sparky, how has the Axiron been working for you? I was just prescribed this yesterday and was curious about your results so far.

It was fine , but I opted to go back to the injections. My Doc increased my dose and I would have had to smear a crap load on every day.
