820 is a good levels
The question is when was the blood drawn in relationship to the application of the gel? When i was on gels my levels where 900 2 hours afer application so yes it is popular. Where is your e2 and dht levels and shbg. Total T means very little if it is all bounded plus other hormones and thyroid are out of balance. -

your peaking about 1100 to 1200.
I would apply it 2 hours after application then measure peak.
Then measure again in the morning before application then this will give you a peak and trough. I like to know where the high point and low point due to people can burn through testosteorne at different rates and may need 2 application per day 12 hours apart. Again every one is different. - 01-05-2011, 10:14 AM
Get away from Androgel if you can. It's been documented to have less absorption than TESTIM (a thicker type gel). I switched from Androgel to TESTIM and my levels climbed from the 500's to over 700.

EVery one is different and many insurances will not cover testim. Again you are at the mercy of the big pharma. I prefer testim over androgel for many reasons, but its pricey..You can even go to a compounded t gel for 1/10 the price if you are paying out of pocket. If you are getting these results then stick with it. If it aint broke do not fix it.

Does the gels give you water retention. Ive been on test e injections and I get major water retention.

Agreed, seems like healthy levels, 10-12 hours. Are you recovering from a cycle? The number doesnt suggest it, but wondering why you seem disappointed.
