Hi George,

It seems that you are having an allergic reaction when applying Fortesta (i.e. the rash). Fortesta has testosterone as its active component.

So, I'd suggest to talk to your doctor (endocrinologist/urologist) to prescribe other alternatives to Fortesta (i.e. other drugs containing testosterone).

Once stopping fortesta, the symptoms you are experiencing will disappear too.

Hope it helped!
