Unfortunately drew the process is really slow for topical T. I did not do the androgel but the creme and was on it for i think 3 years before I started injections. I can tell you i have great body hair on my inner thighs where i applied it the most ... and my voice and some features changed a tad. Also for a time my sex drive increased. Major changes in body hair, voice, and that monthly crap didn't happen til I went on injections and even there they didn't happen on the initial low dose ...

What the creme mainly did for me was it provided me a safe slow platform to see how my body would adjust. Maybe it can be the same for you. I know there are concerns you and your drs have about the T and maybe this is just the pathway to the changes you desire.
