Testosterone Enanthate Injections

Available in the form of an injection, testosterone enanthate (Delatestryl®) is a hormone replacement medication that is used to treat low testosterone levels. It is also approved to help treat breast cancer in women in certain cases. This medication is given once or twice a month and is typically injected into the gluteal muscle. Although most people tolerate the medicine well, side effects are possible, such as pain or inflammation at the injection site.
