What it is

Bio-identical testosterone cream for clinically low testosterone, prescribed after blood tests. Lower strengths are typically prescribed for women and higher strengths for men; your doctor will confirm the right strength for you and monitor treatment. Testosterone is a scheduled substance and is not prescribed for performance enhancement.

How it is supplied

Available in several strengths (see the table below), each compounded for you by name, on prescription, by a SAHPRA-licensed South African compounding pharmacy — not imported research-grade material bought online.
