A member asked:
Got prescribed testosterone injections to replace my androgel 1%. how long after my last pack of androgel i have to wait before starting injections ?

Depends: That depends if your last pack had 25 mg testosterone or 50mg or one that delivers 12.5mg per actuation. It is best to check with the doctor who prescribed it.

About 2 weeks: Testosterone shots rapidly increase your levels. Thus, let the body metabolize the topical gels, so the testosterone levels don't reach too high
