Experiences with

Androderm

Anyway, I successfully used andro for several years, until my stash was depleted & my integrative medicine doctor began prescribing Androderm T patches. In the steroidogenesis cascade, andro can be produced from progesterone, or from pregnenolone-->DHEA.

I was diagnosed with pmr April 24 and put on 15 milligrams of predisolone I have been reducing ever since and and now on 2 mg. I developed eczema and dermatitis about four weeks ago and have been on steroid cream for about 10 days and now on Aproderm as a moisturiser. I have had severe itching feeling

I asked my GP for some more Diprobase, but was refused as my NHS area's formulary no longer lists it. I remembered a nurse using Fifty:50 so asked for that, and it was allowed. The formulary now lists Epimax as the first choice alternative to Aproderm, Aqueous cream, Aquamax, Diprobase cream, E45 cream

.), my integrative doc prescribed 5 mg Androderm patches. I was already on Arimidex to control estradiol. Along the way Androderm reduced the maximum dose to 4 mg. As of 1/1/2015 my insurance would not pay for Androderm, so I switched to testosterone cypionate - 80 mg injected every 7 days.
