Applying testosterone cream can be a great way to boost your levels of this important hormone and potentially improve your overall quality of life. However, for maximum absorption and efficacy, it is important to take the time to understand where best to apply the cream. Let's look at some of the key aspects you should consider when applying testosterone cream or gel.
Choose an Area: The area where you apply the cream has a big impact on how well it absorbs, so it is important to select a location carefully. Common areas where people may choose to apply their testosterone cream include shoulders, upper arms, abdomen and thighs. Generally speaking, hairless areas are preferable as they often absorb better than those that contain higher concentrations of hair follicles and oils.
Apply Evenly: When applying your testosterone cream or gel, be sure to follow label instructions carefully; spreading it evenly over the chosen area in order to maximize absorption rates is key. Also keep in mind that rubbing too hard can disrupt the process; use gentle strokes instead for better results.
Give It Time: After applying your testosterone cream it may take anywhere from several minutes up to an hour for it become completely absorbed by your skin cells so give yourself enough time before dressing again or getting into contact with water or sweat as these can wash away some of its effects if applied immediately after application.
