Testosterone cypionate

Testosterone cypionate is an injectable form of the hormone testosterone. It is often prescribed to treat low testosterone levels in men. Some key things to know about testosterone cypionate:

What is it used for?

Testosterone cypionate is primarily used for testosterone replacement therapy in men who have low testosterone (low T) due to conditions such as:

• Primary hypogonadism


• Secondary hypogonadism


• Age-related testosterone decline

It can help alleviate symptoms of low T like:

• Low sex drive


• Erectile dysfunction


• Decreased muscle mass


• Fatigue


• Depression

By restoring testosterone levels, it can improve quality of life.

How it works

Testosterone cypionate works by supplementing the body's natural testosterone that is made in the testicles. It is a bioidentical synthetic form of the testosterone that our bodies produce.

Once injected into the body, testosterone cypionate is gradually released into the bloodstream over the course of 8-10 days. This provides sustained testosterone levels in the body.

Treatment regimen

• Injected intramuscularly (into a muscle like the buttock, thigh, or shoulder)


• Doses ranging from 100-200 mg every 7-14 days


• Requires a prescription and medical supervision


• Blood work required to monitor testosterone levels and potential side effects
