I'm taking Androgel for perimenopause symptoms (after a lot of research) and am so thankful to have found this! As a 39 year old woman, it's difficult to find a doctor who will prescribe. I'm saving money too, as 30 packets will last me nearly a year! I use a scale and put about 3-4mg per day on my upper arm, and I feel so much more optimistic and alive. My stomach is less bloated and I'm exercising again! It's been about 6 weeks and I plan to get my hormone levels tested every 3 months. So far I have no side effects - apart from insomnia at first as it is stimulating - but now I'm sleeping deeply. Thank you RUPharma!
