Brief Answer:
Go for PVC< slowly taper fortesta

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking

Fortesta is a testosterone supplement used topically. I wonder what has been the reason for your prescription. before answering , let me clear some of the misconceptions people use testosterones supplements for.

Testosterone therapy is not a fountain of youth. There is no proof that it will restore you to the level of physical fitness or sexual function of your youth, make you live longer, prevent heart disease or prostate cancer, or improve your memory or mental sharpness. Do not seek therapy with these expectations in mind.

If erectile function has been a problem, testosterone therapy might not fix it. In fact, it might increase your sex drive but not allow you to act on it. You may also need medication or other therapy for difficulty getting or maintaining erections.

Now the Skip beats and PVC, so that needs ablative techniques. Fortesta might have triggered it for sure as it is likely to cause cardiac complains in cardiovascular history. It should not have been used in first place with heart problems, If inevitable, should have been more follow ups for the risk assessments.

Apart from heart problems there is long list of problems it can cause. At your age prostate is likely going to be fried and hypertrophied with these testosterones. There is a reason nature has decided taper off hormones naturally with advancing age.

You should not stop it cold turkey. As you have been taking it for 254 days. Thats almost a year. In this time frame your hypothalamo pituitary axis might have been completely off the grid. So better way would be to taper off slowly. Get your doctor to help you in this regard.

Nut shell, you should have the ablation for PVCs and get your doctor to taper this thing off slowly to avoid any adverse effects or minimize it.

I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discusion please.

may the odds be ever in your favour.

Brief Answer:
Yes ablation no fortesta

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for getting back

That's exactly what I mean. You should go for ablation. And for testa I mentioned should not have been taken in first place.

Now how to wean off depends on your gonadal hypothalamus pituitary axis which is severely affected by exogenous testosterone supplements. One thing is for sure to slowly taper the dose. Now how to do that depends upon the extent of depression of inner cycle which I am sure would be too much for 256 days use is chronic one.

Let your endocrinologist be the judge of that by assessing the hormonal status and advice accordingly.

You won't die for quitting cold turkey but you will be off the grid for a while in Sexual and intimacy desires along with other adverse effects these supplements has to offer. The best course would be the one advised by your doctor.

Nutshell. You need ablation and you need to stop fortesta.
Take care.

Brief Answer:
Topical Does not harm.

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking!

Internet is one big distracting piece of information in chunks. It sure causes deranged ECGs or PVCs but only if used oral or systemically to treat resistant hypertensions. Using topical minoxin creams are very rare to cause this. I dont see any reason to discontinue a topical vasodilator for hair therapy. There is a reason they are topical to prevent its oral use adverse effects. You may reduce the usage fromt wice to once a day though.

And once again i would say let your cardiologist have a say and let him decide whether to continue or not, But i don't see any reason to discontinue topical use.

Take care
