    GlossaryOral Testosterone

    Oral Testosterone, also known as Testosterone Pills or Testosterone Tablets, refers to a form of testosterone replacement therapy where the hormone is administered in pill form. This method is used to treat conditions caused by low testosterone levels, such as hypogonadism. While convenient, oral testosterone can have significant liver metabolism, which may lead to liver toxicity, making other forms like injections or transdermal patches often preferred.
