Hi all I started to use 2 pumps of Tostran 2% per day a very low dose but it gives me just what I want, Ive ben on it now for three months and it was great till about 2 weeks ago but even though I used to put it on opposite sides every other day it has now started to burn if I put it on my leg or arm its fine but my side is the best. Has anyone else had the same problem?
Thanks in advance
Sorry I cant edit the title yes it should read causing.

My guess is that there's something in the medicine that you are reacting to.
Have you tried consulting the company?

Product information for Tostran warns about unspecified skin conditions and recommends contacting a medical professional for advice if this occurs. --FLO--

I had rash problems with Testim and switched to T injections instead. Never looked back.

The only problem with the injection is I only want a realy low dose between 15 to 20 mg per day and Ive been told there is no way of getting that low with an injection its a shame there is no daily jab that you can control the dose like diabetics can with an epipen that would be great and easy if only someone woulddo one.
Thanks

Reason can't really do a daily injection like insulin is because Test. has to be injected intramuscular, and because of thickness of the oil comes in, the needle gages has to be pretty big, so an insulin epipen wouldnt work.

You can use an insulin needle for extremely small injections under the skin, Theres one really good HRT doc I know of who recommends it this way, as with daily shots of something like Cypionate, the fluctuation that many men complain about is completely overcome. And yes, small amounts of oil (testosterone shots are dissolved in oil) can be injected into fat so long as the volume is small and injection sites alternated. However, you said 15 to 20mg per day, and thats about 100mg/wk, or 1/2 ml shot per week. Why not do it weekly? Other than the slight fluctuation? Personally, when it comes to Cypionate, I do it every 5th day and find theres no really noticeable fluctuation.
BTW, if the alcohol based gels gives skin reactions, perhaps an almond oil based cream wouldn't? I use Androforte from Australia and find it seems to actually enhance my skin. It can be legally imported with a prescription from an American doctor. (The directions say to use it on the scrotum, but it can be used on other areas as well, just have to increase the amount it tells you to use because other skin types don't have the absorption of scrotal skin. Or you can use it on the scrotum and use less)

I suggest switching to AndroForte from Lawley Pharmaceuticals. You'll notice that most testosterone gels will say to not put it on your genitals, even though your scrotum skin is the most absorbent skin -- the reason for this is that most gels/creams are too irritating and they hope that by putting it on your stomach and legs you won't have a reaction.
Well, with AndroForte, it is purposefully designed to not irritate skin and furthermore is meant to be applied to the scrotum. I use it several times a day (I like increased test for bodybuilding purpose) with no problem.
