Brief Answer:
You may try this alternative once again.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic. I have gone through your query as well as the link provided.

SD-200 contains pure extract supplement of Tongkat XXXXXXX (Eurycoma Longifolia Jack). Since you have already tried it earlier and have found it to be effective, you can try it once again. You can try tapering androgel over 2 weeks. For the first week take 5 mg daily, then take 5 mg on alternate days and then switch over to SD-200.

Let me know if I could help further.

Regards
