Description
Testoheal Gel is a topical formulation containing 1% testosterone, designed for use in replacement therapy. It is commonly prescribed for individuals experiencing low testosterone levels, a condition known as hypogonadism. The gel functions by increasing testosterone levels in the bloodstream through transdermal absorption. The formulation includes several inactive components: carbomer, ethanol (67.0%), isopropyl myristate, purified water, and sodium hydroxide.
Testosterone gel is advised for use as a replacement therapy in instances of insufficient testosterone production. The beneficial effects associated with this medication encompass:
Enhanced libido
Elevated mood
Better bone health
Augmentation of muscle mass
Improved sexual function
Boosted energy and motivation
Elimination of the need for injections
A more consistent release of the hormone into the bloodstream in comparison to injectable or oral testosterone forms.
Testosterone gel is designed for topical application on the skin.
The recommended dosage is 5 grams of gel, which contains 50 milligrams of testosterone, equivalent to one sachet. This amount should be applied to the skin once daily, ideally at the same time each morning.
While the daily dosage of Testoheal Gel should be tailored to the individual, it must not exceed 10 grams of gel per day. Users may gradually adjust their dosage as needed.
The application should occur on clean, dry, and healthy skin, specifically on both shoulders, both arms, or the abdomen, and should be performed by the user. There is no need to rub the gel into the skin.
Upon opening the sachet, the entire contents should be squeezed into the palm and promptly applied to the skin. It is important to allow the gel to dry for a minimum of 3 to 5 minutes before dressing. After application, hands should be thoroughly washed with soap and water.
The Testoheal gel UK should not be applied to the genital area, including the penis and scrotum, due to the potential for local irritation from the high alcohol content.
It is recommended to wait at least 6 hours after applying the Testoheal gel before bathing or showering. However, occasional bathing or showering within 1 to 6 hours post-application is unlikely to significantly impact the treatment.
Side Effects:
Testosterone gel, like all medications, may produce side effects; however, not all individuals will experience them.
When administered at the recommended dosage of 5g per day, the most commonly reported side effects include localized skin reactions at the application site, such as skin redness, acne, and dryness.

Cognitive impairment, elevated blood pressure, prostate enlargement, diarrhea, headaches, fatigue, mood fluctuations, reduced sexual desire, anxiety, emotional instability, depression, hair thinning, acne, breast tenderness, breast enlargement, and benign prostatic hyperplasia (non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate).
Additionally, due to the presence of alcohol, frequent application may lead to further skin irritation and dryness.
