I want to keep my levels more consistent has anyone tried to split up the pumps. Meaning my doc prescribed 2 pumps a day at night after I shower. I was thinking of 1 pump at night before I go to sleep and 1 pump in the am before I go to work to keep my testosterone levels more balanced instead of 2 pumps at once. If anyone has tried this I would like to know the results, tomorrow will be my first completed week, thanks.

Hello, Justin! How are you?

I don't think there'd be any harm in trying it, but I am not a doctor, so I strongly urge you to consult yours, before making such a change.

The FDA lists this as being a hormonal supplement and lists the typical side effects as possibly including dizziness, headache, skin irritation, mood swings and irritability.

Has anyone tried it this way?
