DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO

I was recently diagnosed with low testosterone levels. I’m 43 years old and I’m really worried about it. I was prescribed testosterone in gel but I only applied it for a week because I had so much discomfort. I also noticed that my genitals shrank and that made me feel depressed. Now I don’t know what to do. I take viagra every time I want to have sex because I can’t have an erection to perform with my partner. Any suggestions will be very appreciated. Thanks
