Mechanism of action
Testosterone supplementation provides exogenous androgen to restore physiological hormone levels in men with primary or secondary hypogonadism, supporting maintenance of muscle mass, bone density, and standard metabolic function.
Testosterone topical 1% is testosterone gel in single-dose sachets, the same strength as Androgel. It is rubbed into the skin once a day to replace testosterone in men with hypogonadism, confirmed by blood tests.
Keep it away from women and children. Testosterone passes to anyone who touches the treated skin, and can cause bone-growth problems and early puberty in children. Wash your hands with soap and water after applying it, cover the area with clothing, and wash the skin before close contact (MedlinePlus). Women and children must not use it. It is not used with known or suspected prostate or breast cancer, and treatment needs regular blood tests, including PSA.
