Information About Testosterone

Testosterone is an androgen hormone used to treat male hypogonadism, delayed puberty, and gender-affirming hormone therapy in Singapore. Available as a 50mg–250mg intramuscular injection, 1%–2% topical gel applied daily, or implantable pellet depending on indication, it is HSA-registered and available on prescription only in Singapore. Regular monitoring of haematocrit, PSA, and cardiovascular parameters is mandatory during therapy as testosterone increases erythropoiesis and may stimulate subclinical prostate disease — haematocrit above 54% requires dose reduction or treatment interruption. A valid doctor's consultation is required before dispensing. Order Testosterone online at DoctorOnCall Singapore with same-day delivery available.
