Quick Answer
Testosterone can be delivered through injections, gels, or pellets. Each method has trade-offs related to convenience, dose control, consistency, cost, and safety. The right option should be chosen with a licensed provider.
Injections
Injections are commonly used because they allow flexible dosing and provider-guided adjustment. Some patients prefer them because they can fit into a consistent routine. The downside is that some men are uncomfortable with needles or need education on proper use.
Gels
Gels can be appealing for patients who prefer to avoid injections. However, they require consistent application and precautions to reduce transfer risk to partners, children, or others through skin contact.
Pellets
Pellets are placed during an in-office procedure and can last for months. Some patients like the low-maintenance aspect, but dose adjustments are less flexible once placed.
Why Dose Control Matters
Testosterone response can vary, so the ability to monitor and adjust therapy is important. Symptoms, labs, side effects, and goals all matter.
