Testosterone newbie - help!

How on earth so you know what an 1/8 of a sachet looks like? And where do you put it? Mine came with a leaflet saying ‘for adult males only’, saying a completely different dosage. This pissed me off - if you’re going to sell it to women, at least write us a leaflet to go with it…
also do you keep yours in the fridge and when do you do it? After shower? And finally, how long did it take before you felt a difference? Thanks for any advice.

I decant mine into a tiny pot I have and just put on a blob every day. It’s not exact but you get an idea over time how much to use to make it last 8 days. I put it on after my shower on places like thighs behind my knee, upper arm etc. Rotate the areas you use to avoid excess hair growth in that area.
There is no leaflet for women as it’s not licensed for women though apparently there will be one licensed for women in the future. I think I I felt it was working after a week or two

Can I ask how it helped? My testerone levels apparently are extremely low but due to other health conditions I will need a review. I am however keen to try it...

Wondering if I could smear it on my thinning eyebrows and forehead where I am thinning...

@Cars4Govprior to testosterone I felt very disconnected from my body. Touch didn’t illicit the same physical response it used to. Now I feel much more connected to myself and it’s therefore increased my libido. Where once that was a complete no go, it’s now a possibility. So no massive leap but it’s back on the cards. I feel much more like myself again.
I think it’s helped with energy levels too.

Thanks everyone. I’m two days in now. Will see how it goes!

I presume you’ve got the little silver sachets of testogel? I’m 6 months in and now an expert at judging how much of a blob I need everyday to split it over 7 days!
I got the hang of it after a month or so.

Yeah they’re the ones. Feel like I’m just taking a wild guess!
