Hello,
Your Testosterone level was low and in these circumstances the Testosterone replacement therapy is helpful.
Testosterone replacement therapy is available in several forms. All can improve testosterone levels.
If you think that Androgel is not very effective, you may start the T injections.
Deca injection contains the active ingredient nandrolone decanoate, which is a type of medicine called an anabolic steroid.
Anabolic steroids have the same properties as the natural hormone testosterone but I don't think it is the right choice considering your last T level.
If you were my patient, I will suggest starting the T injections (DEPO-Testosterone injections.
50-400 mg should be administered every two to four weeks and the dosage is adjusted according to the patient's response and the appearance of the adverse reactions.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
