TESTO BASE O
Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone and an anabolic
steroid. In male humans, testosterone plays a key role in the
development of male reproductive tissues such as testes and
prostate, as well as promoting secondary sexual characteristics
such as increased muscle and bone mass, and the growth of body
hair. In addition, testosterone is involved in health and
well-being, and the prevention of osteoporosis. Insufficient
levels of testosterone in men may lead to abnormalities
including frailty and bone loss.
Testosterone is a steroid from the androstane class containing a
keto and hydroxyl groups at the three and seventeen positions
respectively. It is bio-synthesized in several steps from
cholesterol and is converted in the liver to inactive
metabolites. It exerts its action through binding to and
activation of the androgen receptor. In humans and most other
vertebrates, testosterone is secreted primarily by the testicles
of males and, to a lesser extent, the ovaries of females. On
average, in adult males, levels of testosterone are about 7 to 8
times as great as in adult females. As the metabolism of
testosterone in males is more pronounced, the daily production
is about 20 times greater in men. Females are also more
sensitive to the hormone.
In addition to its role as a natural hormone, testosterone is
used as a medication, for instance in the treatment of low
testosterone levels in men, transgender hormone therapy for
transgender men, and breast cancer in women. Since testosterone
levels decrease as men age, testosterone is sometimes used in
older men to counteract this deficiency. It is also used
illicitly to enhance physique and performance, for instance in
athletes.
Medical use
Testosterone is used as a medication for the treatment of males
with too little or no natural testosterone production, certain
forms of breast cancer, and gender dysphoria in transgender men.
This is known as hormone replacement therapy (HRT) or
testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), which maintains serum
testosterone levels in the normal range. Decline of testosterone
production with age has led to interest in androgen replacement
therapy. It is unclear if the use of testosterone for low levels
due to aging is beneficial or harmful.
Testosterone is included in the World Health Organization’s list
of essential medicines, which are the most important medications
needed in a basic health system. It is available as a generic
medication. The price depends on the form of testosterone used.
It can be administered as a cream or transdermal patch that is
applied to the skin, by injection into a muscle, as a tablet
that is placed in the cheek, or by ingestion.
Common side effects from testosterone medication include acne,
swelling, and breast enlargement in males. Serious side effects
may include liver toxicity, heart disease, and behavioral
changes. Women and children who are exposed may develop
virilization. It is recommended that individuals with prostate
cancer not use the medication. It can cause harm if used during
pregnancy or breastfeeding.
