There are many men who take testosterone regularly with no ill effects. But still the essential task is to get your testosterone measured. You should ask to get measures of both total serum testosterone and total free testosterone. A person could have a high testosterone level but low level of free testosterone, and vice versa. Definitely don't attempt to supplement testosterone until you know for certain your level is low.

> If you have a deficiency you will need shots or gels for the rest of your life. You will be going to the pharmacy and buying controlled substances (which can cost over $200 a month), which you will have to apply every day for the rest of your life. No showering for 6 hours after applying the gel, which must be removed before having sex. The alternative is to get shots every 1-4 weeks from your doctor's office. These can be painful, and for best results you need them every two weeks or less. And when I say painful, I mean painful. Meanwhile your testes will shrink and you may develop prostate problems, bigger breasts, and a bunch of other problems.
