Impotency meaning
In the search for an easy way to increase testosterone, many men are looking at creams and gels and patches.
The first rule is don't self diagnosis or self medicate - see your doctor. There is a specific test that will show just how low the testosterone level is. You need this information before you start any course of replacement testosterone therapy.
A testosterone level of 300-1,000 ng/dl is considered normal. That is a pretty big range. What works for one man may be way off for another. The fact is that men simply slow down production of testosterone as they age. The highest level is around age 17 (who would have ever guessed that). Research shows that the level decreases an average of 1.2% a year.

Testosterone cream is rubbed into different areas of the body just once a day. It can be applied to thighs, stomach area, arms or shoulders. To avoid skin irritation, the application area should be alternated every day.
This ritual does not go on continuously - you will have to take a break after 8 weeks of use.
Replacement Testosterone Therapy requires a doctor to closely monitor the PSA (prostate specific antigen) levels.
