Testosterone
About Testosterone
The primary male sex hormone. Testosterone treats male hypogonadism, a condition where the body produces insufficient testosterone. It is available as injections, gels, patches, and pellets. Testosterone therapy improves energy, libido, muscle mass, and mood in deficient men. The medication has been heavily marketed for age related low testosterone, which is controversial. Use without genuine deficiency carries risks including cardiovascular events, prostate enlargement, and fertility suppression.
