What is a testosterone shot?

Testosterone boosters are supplements that claim to increase testosterone levels, potentially improving sexual performance, libido, and muscle.

Some OTC testosterone boosters may be safe when used in moderation, but they cannot permanently raise or maintain your testosterone levels. All forms of OTC testosterone boosters offer their own unique health risks.

The term over-the-counter (OTC) refers to a medication that can be purchased without a medical prescription. In contrast, prescription drugs require a prescription from a doctor or other health care professional and should only be used by the prescribed individual.
