If you want to combat osteoporosis risk, then Androgel in low levels is

fine.

There are 5% and 1% gel packs. One every third day of the 1% will provide a

low level of testosterone to postpone loss of bone density. I know several

eunuchs who take that level and lower to keep a certain level of energy.

Bone density is affected by several factors, only one of which is hormone

level, whether male or female. A great deal has to do with mild stress

placed on the bones by regular exercise, and this stress stimulates bone

growth with proper nutrition. Diet with sufficient calcium in usable form

is important. I've always enjoyed milk and cheese. Lack of exercise

contributes to the onset of osteoporosis. Lack of exercise stems from loss

of energy caused by loss of testosterone (or estrogen for women).
