I am currently taking 5g Andorgel daily. Although my total t level was around 300 for a 52 year old, it had been declining and I had all the symptoms of andorpause. I believe my problems were triggered by the use of statins for high cholestoral. While I have noticed improvement, I am trying to balance the positive effects of HRT with the negitives of long term use. I have read that a combination of 2gm propionyl-L-carnitine plus 2gm acetyl-L-carnitine are as effective as testosterone replacement. Any truth to the claim?
