question from a user

I'm pushing 47 years old now and was in TRT in the past. I didn't like that big freaking needle, and my BP increased but maintained at 140 while on the cypionate. Im wondering if the cream would be just as good?

It’s hard to say, because everyone responds differently, but most men do well on the creams, and creams are known to have less of an impact on blood lipid and hematocrit levels.
