Testosterone treatment questions

I am hoping I am in the right place.   I am a 44 year old male who has literally suffered the last 2 years with very low thyroid and testosterone.   My testosterone level is 215 , 230 and the highest it has been was 245.  I never thought that my symptoms of absolute fatigue could be from low t.  I also have no sex drive despite being mentally. Engaged in thinking about it like a normal guy.   My ears ring as well.  I had some androgel prescribed to me about 5 months ago and just started taking it about 5 days ago.  I am rubbing 4 pumps on my chest every morning.  I seem to be doing better but it's too early to tell.  My question is,  is this the best method? Am I taking the right amount? My dr. Told me to start with 4 pumps but I feel like I can do 5 or 6.  

Will this help me with my interest in sex and night time erections?

Hi,
   Actually low thyroid can do more harm than low T, and it can be responsible for all your symptoms. What are you doing for low thyroid, I feel you should correct that first.Do consult a physician and do the needful.

Lol.  It's all good.   I have read that the needles work great at first but wear off very quickly.  I have hashimotos disease as well which causes fatigue as well.  I'm so tired all the time a can hardly function.  The erection thing seems to be an issue as well but don't really care as long as u have some energy.   Am I in the right place?

Did they offer you any other methods of dosage? They have actually said that the oldest method still proves to be the best and that is the mean ole needle >(. But if it helps hey a little ***** is worth a nevermind anyway best of luck bruce and see if maybe a different method might bebetter for you. Hope all is well.
