Injection is the oldest way to administer testosterone. When testosterone is
injected into muscle, usually in the buttocks, it is absorbed directly into the blood. The early
forms of injectable testosterone broke down rapidly in the body so injections had to be given
every 2-3 days to maintain the proper levels in the blood. New forms of injectable testosterone
are more longer acting - usual frequency of injections is every 2-4 weeks or longer. The injection
can be painful. Side effects can cause emotional and sexual highs and lows when the initial "boost"
is followed by the "down."
