I am on pure testosterone. I have never heard of .05 testosterone gel. That's a new one for me. That's right, Mad. Blood tests for menopause are useless.
Ovaries kick in and out.
Therefore, FSH and LH levels are meaningless if you still have any periods at all. Natural testosterone is the same, molecule for molecule, as the testosterone the body makes, but it can be converted to estrogen, and it's not as well absorbed as methyltestosterone when taken orally. I do not recommend natural tesotsterone. Please read the chapter in my book. Natural testosterone can be converted to estrogen and you need to keep levels stable.
