Effectiveness

How Fortesta Affects PatientsTestosterone helps to create and develop male body parts and characteristics. The effects of the drug vary from person to person, usually lasting 10-100 minutes. The amount of testosterone that is considered safe in a healthy adult male is between 300-1000ng/dL. It is important to warn patients about the potential risks of children being exposed to testosterone products.
How Fortesta works in the bodyThe androgen receptor is a protein that is found in cells, often bound to other proteins. When androgen hormones, such as testosterone, attach to the receptor, it changes shape and allows the hormones to travel into the nucleus of the cell. Once inside, the hormones activate genes related to masculine characteristics. This includes the development of body and facial hair, changes in fat and muscle distribution, and the enlargement of certain organs, like the prostate and larynx.

Fortesta for Deficiency of Luteinizing Hormone-Releasing Hormone
So far, I'm feeling better after using this treatment for four weeks. Two pumps on each leg does the trick. It's easy to use and rub in, but it can take a while for the gel to dry. Once it's dry, though, it feels sticky.
