    delivers testosterone through the skin to treat low levels

    A testosterone patch, also known as a testosterone transdermal patch, is a medical device that delivers testosterone through the skin. It is used to treat conditions caused by low testosterone levels in men, such as hypogonadism. The patch is applied to the skin, typically on the back, abdomen, upper arms, or thighs, and provides a steady release of testosterone into the bloodstream over a 24-hour period.
