If i'm on androgel 10mg for 6 years it meen my body not produce natural testosterone and the testicle stop producing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Androgel: Hi, yes, the exogenous testosterone can suppress the FSH/LH?testosterone pathway by suppressing the LH/FSH (the hormones secreted by Pituitary gland and stimulate the testis to produce Testosterone), therefore the natural production of Testosterone decreases and also the Testis could shrink down nd also the production of sperms get disturbed.
