AndroGel works well for some and for others not at all. It's impossible to predict where you will fall. The problem with transdermal testosterones is that some men simply can't absorb them. This is not the case with injectable testosterone. Unfortunately, any doctor that prescribes AndroGel or any transdermal testosterone over injectable as in preferring gel over injectable, he's only doing so because he's bought into what the AndroGel sales rep told him when he came to the office. There is nothing out there, no data at all that shows AndroGel to be a more effective testosterone compound over any injectable form.
