Key points

  • Testosterone is an androgen, the hormone class that stimulates the development of male characteristics.
  • It is restricted to adult men; women, children and teenagers must not use it.
  • Testosterone may raise blood pressure and increase the risk of heart attack or stroke, especially at higher or misused doses.

How does Testosterone work?

Testosterone replaces the hormone the body normally produces in the testes. In some tissues it converts into dihydrotestosterone, a stronger androgen that drives physical changes linked to male development. The body controls its own production through a feedback loop in the brain, so adding external testosterone can suppress natural output.
