Topical Test verses Injectable Test

ad

What's up guys! I've used lots of injectable testosterone in the past. I've used it by itself, I've ran different cycles which included test, and I've also used different forms of TRT(Testosterone Replacement Therapy), which included topical test. Specifically, the form of topical test that you apply to your armpits. I have a few unused bottles of this form of topical test, which have added up, after being prescribed by my endocrinologist, while I'm running gear.

Now, obviously, I know that it raises your testosterone levels, so it can be used to build muscle. However, I'm curious to know, if the same amount in mg's of this topical test, would equal the raised test levels, of the same amount in mg's of injectable test. I'd like to use this topical test in a test only cycle, but I don't know if it's a stable enough form of test, or how many mg's would equal, let's say 500mg's of injectable test for instance. Whether or not topical test is stable enough, is probably the most important concern I have. Or, if it's even worth the hassle of using in a test cycle.

So, I have these unopened bottles of this topical test just laying around collecting dust, and instead of letting them go to waste, I'd like to get some use out of them. If anyone has any experience in using this form of test in a cycle, and not just for TRT, I'd really appreciate what your thoughts are. I'm aware, that with bloodwork and basically trial and error, I could find the right dosage to bring my test to the desired level. However, I'd really like to hear some advice from anyone who has used topical test in this manner, and it's equivalency to injectable test, in all aspects. Any helpful information is appreciated.

I thought this subject had been raised & discussed many times before on here and the end result being that its basically useless for any kind of training gains other than normal TRT purposes and even that is nowhere near as effective as gear doses that are used for TRT etc..

Think about it - 80mg of most transdermal test preparations are meant to deliver approximately 10mg into your blood daily. So how much would you need to use to get 100mg daily? Do you have enough skin to rub that all on......Jesus I can’t believe I just wasted my time writing this.

No.
Why?
Bioavailability.

The topical test has a lot of issues with transferring to other people like kids and women depending on where your applying it. I think for TRT the best option is the testosterone implanted pellets, lasts like 3 months.

Unless you're wanting to be on trt only and using specifically for the benefit of normal test levels its basically worthless for bodybuilding or gaining lbm. Im not 100% sure on the absorption rates etc, but its not as effective as IM test by a long shot. Hence why no sources sell it... ok maybe 1 out of 50ish
