There are three forms testerone can currently be delivered to patients: injections, pills or skin patches. Pills are not prescribed frequently because they tend to be harsh on the liver. But 2.4 million prescriptions were filled for testerone in the United States in 2004. This number is double the figure from just four years ago.
The positive effects are numerous. It increases energy and libido, increases muscle growth and prevents bone loss and heart disease. Side effects include hair loss, acne, depression, breast enlargement and sleep dysfunction.
Unfortunately, the attempt to use testerone cream in females to boost sex-drive has failed to produce results. Procter and Gamble and many other pharmaceutical companies have attempted to but the studies have not yielded any success versus a placebo.
