    medication applied to skin to treat low testosterone levels

    Testosterone Gel, also known as testosterone topical gel or testosterone replacement gel, is a medication applied to the skin to treat men with low or no testosterone. It helps restore normal testosterone levels, which can improve symptoms such as low energy, mood changes, and reduced libido. The gel is absorbed through the skin and enters the bloodstream, providing a steady release of testosterone.
