Why T-gel? Why not testosterone injections? I started TRT/HRT 6 months ago because I have low T. I had low T. I inject 200 ml every 10 days and my T levels are 800-900 the day before injection. Me estrodial is now on the low side of normal. I was on T gel years ago and it didn’t do anything for me. My levels barely moved. My fitness journey just started. I’m watching videos now just to see others opinions.
@@brucejoshua21 in my country for example we are required to use the gel for 3 months to see if our bodies react to it well before we're offered the option to switch to injections. and also everyone reacts differently to it, for many people the gel works just as perfectly as the injection does
I appreciated this! Even though I got my dose and how to apply it from my doctor, I just did my first thing of testosterone gel. It was nice to have the visual confirmation that I was doing things right, and sorta feel like I wasn't doing it alone! Thank you.
Thank you for having this video out, I just applied my first dose on my arm and you really helped me to move passed my nerves and do this. Thank so so so much.
Thank you for this! My endocrinologist told me how to apply this but didn't visually show me; it's nice to have the visual tutorial just to make sure I don't somehow screw it up. Super helpful ^^

Careful not to get it under your arms. I asked my doctor if I could put it in my armpits and underarms (to protect my wife from accidentally touching it) and she told me that wouldn’t be safe because the skin there is too thin. Don’t shoot the messenger. I’m just repeating what my doctor said. Please consult your doctor personally for any questions or concerns that you have with your own medical treatment.
Some of you all don't listen!! The young man told you that he wasn't a doctor that you will have to ask your doctor about any questions you may have!! You still asking questions that should be asked by your doctor..smh His video was just mainly talking about how he applies his dose the steps he takes of the do's & don't to help you how to apply it!!
I worthless doctor has just made me switch. My first doctor gave me just the right dose. He retired so now I have to mess with all this. Are you having any luck with the cream?
@@ScottHendrix-yz3du hey! i have been on the gel for rougly 3 monrhs now and it was going well! the daily application was abit tedious but not that big of a deal. the changes definitely come slower, but the applying daily helped keep my hormones (and mood) more stable! i ended up going back to injections because it was easier/cheaper for me to inject. if you have any specific questions, feel free to ask
thanks for sharing ryan! love your videos. I personally would love to see a video about your experience transitioning in college (since I’m about to do the same thing!)
Thank you for the tip! I would’ve never thought to clean my arm with hand soap before applying. Sometimes showering takes to much energy or I don’t have the energy to shower in the morning so this is very helpful! My first try I rubbed it into my shoulder and arm without showering or cleaning the area and it was indeed very gross with the flaking and it took longer to rub in.
Thank you for the info! I am waiting for insurance approval for androgel. I have a generic disorder called 47 XXY, Klinefelter's Syndrome. I am looking forward to giving Androgel a try! One question - why do you switch arms/do you have to do this?
Hey great video man, thank you for posting it. I'm in the process of switching from the injections (which I had been on for decades) to one 5 gram packet of gel cream per day, everyday, effective today.🎩
@ScottHendrix-yz3du Yeah, it really worked out great but I stopped using it and switched back to the injections because it kept blocking my ability to have spontaneous sex. It also stopped me from cuddling up at night with my wife because we didn't want the gel to rub off on her. The other thing is that the gel had me growing hair on my back and on top of my shoulders.
@@chicagopapi6152 yeah I'm worried about all of that stuff except the shots made me grow hair on my back to. I can't even really grow hair on my chest or a full beard but now have back hair. I'll have to find another doctor I guess.
Hell yea bro thank you! I’m finally able to switch to the gel from the shot and this answered most of my questions about it. I’m super pumped to get started! I can’t believe I’ve never come across your channel before now, but I’m glad I did and I’m subscribed now 😊🏳️⚧️
Hi Ryan. Keep your eyes on T level. Im FTM and had T injection for 8yrs. Early this yr I decided to try T gel and I got my period back after 2.5 months of using it. Which never happened for 8yrs. Found out my T level was very low. So now im back to T injection. It was a horrible experience.
@@adamsebastian74665 years late just to tell you that you're spreading misinformation because shots actually tend to imbalance hormonal levels and gel tends to stabilize them. 😭
Team Gel! I break mine up too, like two pumps on each thigh or arm, or two on the belly and the rest on the arm. Basically try to change it up a bit. I was worried the first time I noticed the dirt and dead skin bunching up too, but I just asked around in a couple groups on facebook to see if that was normal.
hey ryan! what's the reason for alternating the right and left arm everyday? two pumps on every side every day would seem easier (less time to let it dry).
Thanks a lot for this video, Ryan. My boyfriend came out to me as transgender on March,2017 and since that day we hope to get someday a therapist for him and also see if he can go on testosterone.He is diabetic (type1) and we both are worried because We don't know yet if there's going to be a risk using it. He told me that he wouldn't transition just Because He thinks using testosterone will cause many problems to his health.... I'm worried about him and I just wish at some point We could clear our doubts when he talks to a professional.
kika Cabrera hey, I'm sorry your boyfriend is going through this, but I don't think diabetes type 1 is a no go for testosterone. I'm no doctor but I believe testosterone can affect sugar(?) levels and is not recommended to people who take insulin, because it can make the drug ineffective, but as long as his levels are checked I think he might be fine, but that's just me, again, I'm not a doctor.
Fellow type 1 here and I'm on T :) They say that it can make insulin a little less absorbable but that just means your partner would have to take slightly more units :) It shouldn't cause any more problems than that tbh but I've only just started so can't say for sure. An endo would keep an eye anyway. I'm starting to make videos about being on T with medical conditions so it'd be cool if you check them out so I can reassure as time goes on. There's nothing on my channel quite yet, I'm still editing 😂
Hey boo come to hamden Connecticut anchor health initiative is the only practice that doesn't require you to have a gender therapy approval.. they have u sign a paper its called a informed consent paper
Weeelll, you never start off with the gel because the gel dose is way too high. You always start off with a small dose and then slowly build it up. By the time you're on the recommended dose of t that allows you to start using the gel you've probably been using t for a year or more so your body has already changed quite a bit. I use two pumps a day, used to inject once in two weeks but the gel dose is a lot higher than the injections. Also with injections my voice started to change after a month (depends on your body how fast it goes tho because i already had unusually high testosterone levels so my body adapted really fast to it)
Musa Nomo I’m about to start on gel hopefully this month. If I took the injections it would be too high of a dose. With the gel you can go down to 1/4 of a full adult dose of testosterone. Hope this helps you understand lol.
@@forrestseven8355 ah that's weird, the dosage is probably different from where I live (netherlands) here its standard to start with injections because the gel has a high T concentration. Anyway congrats bro
Super thanks for the video, I found it super helpful. Today, I'm starting my testosterone treatment and I'm a visual.learmer. As such, I needed to visually see how to apply on my shoulder correctly. I appreciate your tips and I made sure to shower and dry prior to applying. I'm also letting it air dry a good 20/30 minutes before I put in my shirt. I know 20/30 minutes is overkill, however it works out as I'm busy getting ready during that time. Today is my first day of the T Treatment. My T levels went down, as I'm now 50 years old and such. chEErs
So ive just started t and i work where they dont know im trans. Im stealth so they address me as male. Basically they will wonder why it looks like im finally going through puberty (at 21 lol), and im wondering if you have experience/advice on how to come out? I feel that if i don't tell someone, they'll probabaly ask anyways.
Hi Ryan i just started Testogel today. I was just wondering does the gel stay on your clothes when you put them on after applying it I mean even after your skin is dry again :)
My gel prescription has instructions for each number of pumps per day. It states that with 4 pumps a day, you should put two on one shoulder and two on the other.
tyy i knew i just had to put it on my shoulders but i didnt know if i should have just let it dry without fully rubbing it in or as much as i could. so that rly clears things up
Thanks for this video. I've been applying two pumps per arm just like this for four months now and don't see any difference at this point. I'm wondering if some peoples' bodies just don't absorb it.
So January will be my 2 years on t I believe and I just wanted to know how is it with gel then the shot? My wife does the shot for me since I don’t like the look of needles and my hands shake whenever I hold it. I really don’t like shots at all since I always get scared of my wife giving me a shot every Saturday. Is the gel worth it? My voice was deep for 7 months until I had to lower my dosage and it’s ehh kind of deep. I’m kind of not getting much result due to what my doctor is doing so as of right now I’m changing clinics to someone who is professional and knows what I need and want. Should I change from shots to gel?
I hear that gel and shots really do not have a difference in how effective they are. They’re just different in applying it, as shots are either, weekly, bi weekly or even monthly depending on where you are. Some people say having shots can make them feel drained right before their next shot, while t gel is every day and kinda evens out the levels. Also you can’t really have skin to skin contact with someone for 4-6 hours after applying. The effectiveness usually depends on your genetics and how your body handles T. If you’re scared of needles it probably wouldn’t hurt to try Gel. I’m thinking of getting gel, as I don’t have a partner anyway to worry about skin to skin contact (if I ever do in the future I’ll think of injections) but I’m nervous about having to do the shots myself so maybe if I get a partner one day I would ask if they could do it too. I understand the anxiety of doing it yourself and am having an appointment today for t.
Ryan, why did u switch to gel from t-shot. Is it because the aggression? Your afraid of needles? Can you please make a video about the reason why you’re switching from shots to gel. Because my md is trying to switch me to gel due to aggression
My test was low in blood test I'll be starting today not trans just a 32 year old man with low T getting a MRI next week to make sure I don't have a patoitry tumor that is causing my hormon imbalance
Hi! 😊 Maybe this could seem a stupid question, but I was just wondering if we can pet animals after T. I'm on gel too. I put it on my upper chest and shoulders then I wear a t-shirt and I carefully wash my hands. Can I pet my cats and can they sleep next to my legs, or should I wait a few hours even for touching them with my clean hands?
I know this video is 4 years old but does anyone know how long you have to wait until you could put on long sleeve clothes after applying T gel? Thinking of switching from injections to gel after top surgery.
The gels suck. They give you inconsistent levels because the gel absorption rate can never be the same each time you apply it. It's worse than doing test cyp/enan injections every two weeks (way too long in between shots-2x/week is ideal if using cypionate or enanthate). If you don't like administering your shots you should switch to test undecanoate which you can inject once every two weeks. Also, don't use those giant skewers of a needle and switch to insulin needles. I'm a young male on TRT who was terrified of needles to the point I had to go to my doctor to get my T shots, but I've been doing them myself for years without issue after learning that the giant 23 gauge needles aren't necessary.
If you don't believe me ask your doctor to draw labs every day for a week, at the same time and same duration after applying the gel so there are no external variations. You'll see that your T level varies SO much on the gel compared to injections.
How come you don't put it on both arms two pumps each arm because the gel I use tells me to only use it on the upper part of my arm and shoulder on both
Lacey Sanchez oh its forever. This is the less invasive method so if its gonna be forever it might as well be like this. Unless the person dont mind being injecting T all their lives.
When do u start notice the effect i have been taking testo gel for 3 days now but put in on my stomach under my bellybutton is it better to put on shoulders? I use it becuse im on metadon and have low testo levels and think it always been low even before metadon and i got very littel facial hair and really want more. So how long does it takes to start nottice the effect?
I do one arm and then the other for my other pump hoping that’s ok I do 2 pumps altogether and one pump on one arm one pump on the other I didn’t know you put it on one arm and alternate .. hoping I’m doing it ok
About to start T gel. Have my gel next to me and this vid just helps with applying confidently. Thank YOU!!

It's worse than doing test cyp/enan injections every two weeks (way too long in between shots-2x/week is ideal if using cypionate or enanthate). If you don't like administering your shots you should switch to test undecanoate which you can inject once every two weeks. Also, don't use those giant skewers of a needle and switch to insulin needles. I'm a young male on TRT who was terrified of needles to the point I had to go to my doctor to get my T shots, but I've been doing them myself for years without issue after learning that the giant 23 gauge needles aren't necessary.
If you don't believe me ask your doctor to draw labs every day for a week, at the same time and same duration after applying the gel so there are no external variations. You'll see that your T level varies SO much on the gel compared to injections.
How come you don't put it on both arms two pumps each arm because the gel I use tells me to only use it on the upper part of my arm and shoulder on both
I got two questions, #1. Can you still put the testosterone gel on? Do you have to switch off on arms?
is androgel readily available on pharmacies or any drug stores? does it require doctors prescription? tnks for the answer!
Thanks. Very helpful.
Why dont both shoulders and belly everyday?
What was your T level? 4 pumps a day sounds like a lot.
i love how thick your hair is, how do you keep it that way
How long do you have to take testosterone for is it forever or is there a stopping point!
Lacey Sanchez oh its forever. This is the less invasive method so if its gonna be forever it might as well be like this. Unless the person dont mind being injecting T all their lives.
Lee S. Reyes Thank you for replying
Why does he need to inject testosterone? Is he a "she" before??
Daryl Pingol He is a transgender man. Which means that he was born female but identified as a man so he transitioned into one physically.
Mainly because she is a girl that does not produce testosterone......... but yes.

Does Testosterone Gel cause Hair Loss in Men ?
You should also post a video on your post-op update top surgery :)
Thank you so much!
My doctor prescribed T gel cause my T levels were too low, starting tomorrow.
Thanks man!! Needed this!
How fast does it work in comparison to injections? Also to get to where you are in this video - how many bottles did you go through?
He used injections first, than switched to gel. Injections give you faster results.
is there any reason why you can't just do two pumps on each shoulder every day?
When do u start notice the effect i have been taking testo gel for 3 days now but put in on my stomach under my bellybutton is it better to put on shoulders? I use it becuse im on metadon and have low testo levels and think it always been low even before metadon and i got very littel facial hair and really want more. So how long does it takes to start nottice the effect?
