I absorbing it and the body regulating to the introduction of the hormone takes awhile, at least it did for me. Its also better than taking Testim again.   You seem kind of young for low T levels.  I do not want anymore kids, but a sexy wife that's needs regular servicing. My Doctor did a full blood work up and said my level...
