What Could Be The Side Effects Of Testosterone Gel Having Pain In Stomach And Pain?
Hi I am worried about my partner. He has low testosterone and keeps complaining of stomach, back and chest pains. He has been to the Doctor and Specialists and has been prescribed a testosterone gel.
What are the side effects of him using the gel? Will it do him more harm then good to use it?
Many Thanks
Rosie
