I recently began taking my morning readings after I applied my daily dose of Androgel.

I went from an average of 105 to 90.

During the same period, I also increased my exercise to 45 minutes per day.

Do you think the drop in readings is from the androgel or the exercise or from a combination of the two.

thank you for any comments

I don't know what it's from but whatever you're doing, KEEP DOING IT! Those are excellent numbers! I understand that exercise increases the body's ability to move sugar to the cells and lowers insulin resistance so that may be part of the picture. If you visit the Androgel website you will find that they list lowered blood glucose levels as a side effect of this med. You will want to inform your doctor of your new numbers. He/she may want to change your diabetic meds or adjust dosages. Anyway, keep exercising. It's one of the best things for us.
