I feel the need to know what I am going through and I love learning. I want to be a sponge and soak up as much information as possible. Their is so much conflicting data among us that we argue frivolously even though we are all in the dark to some degree.
I’d rather be wrong and learn than to be right and lose something bigger. I’ve been wrong enough to learn my ego is dangerous and being right is not that important. I’d rather help someone else and be of use rather than harm. In turn, I always reap greater benefits anyway…so do others.
To put things in perspective: I grew up in Los Angeles and did not receive any formal education beyond the 9th grade. No one can say I’m book smart by that standard.
Most importantly, the medical field is often wrong. Most in depth medical studies on biological functions hit a brick wall concerning different aspects of a particular process. I brought up Zinc.
Zinc is well studied and established as a necessary mineral for healthy persons biological functions.
Most of humanity has known this for many ages in different parts of the world, but medical journals will openly admit that they do not know how all of Zinc’s functions work precisely in the human body. Because it can’t all be proven, much of it is guesswork. Zinc is a small example of what we don’t know about entirely, regarding biological functions.
…sorry about the diatribe.
Scrotal cream. I’ve heard the benefits of it touted by its users and believe what they are saying. As far as I know, all non oral methods of Testosterone delivery bypass the livers initial first pass metabolic function. Most oral Steroids (and many other oral chemical compounds) are destroyed, changed, and/or excreted through the liver. Almost all the blood in the human body is pushed through the liver at some point so I doubt that Scrotal creams do not ever enter the liver at all. Since transdermal applications still pass by capillaries, they enter the bloodstream to some degree regardless of where they are applied.
Transdermal Scrotal application has shown to increase Testosterone concentration levels in the blood more than other transdermal formulations used at different location sites on the body. The milligram of the dosage used in equivalency to other transdermal application methods (like gels or creams on the arms) do not raise blood Testosterone serums level concentrations to the same level as trans-scrotal creams.
In short:
5% concentration of Testosterone gel applied to the upper arms would not raise blood serum levels to the same amount as a 5% concentration of Testosterone Scrotal cream applied to the Scrotum.
So…I would guess…transdermal Scrotal cream has a chemical makeup that allows it pierce through the scrotum easier and/or the Scrotal area has a better efficacy regarding its ability to absorb Testosterone in that area.
Basically:
Effective cream + effective body site = effective absorption
It is also possible that due to the location on the body, it doesn’t get to the liver as quickly as other it does to receptors in the body (maybe receptors on the Testes specifically? I dunno). Another possibility is that it triggers a mechanism in the testicles, which in turn affects the availability and/or preservation of the Testosterone’s mechanism of action itself through a secondary behavior. It’s unlikely but I’m shooting thoughts here.
These are all guesses but the first one seems most likely.
Anyway, it raises Testosterone blood serum levels more steadily and effectively than any other method out right now.
I wonder what esters is in T Scrotal cream
