Testosterone enanthate - Hormone Harmony Clinic

What is testosterone enanthate?

Testosterone enanthate is an injectable form of the hormone testosterone. It is an anabolic-androgenic steroid used to treat low testosterone levels.

Some key points about testosterone enanthate:

• It is a synthetic version of the natural male sex hormone testosterone. The enanthate refers to the ester attached that controls the hormone's release rate.
• It is designed to slowly release testosterone into the body over multiple weeks when injected intramuscularly. This provides more stable blood levels compared to shorter esters like propionate.
• Uses include: treating clinical hypogonadism and hypogonadal symptoms like low energy, decreased muscle mass, reduced libido, and erectile dysfunction. It can also treat delayed puberty in adolescent males.
• It has potent anabolic effects - meaning it can stimulate muscle growth and protein synthesis. For this reason it is used by athletes to enhance performance and bodybuilders to increase muscle mass. However this is illegal without proper 'therapeutic use exemption'.

Administration: Testosterone enanthate is administered via deep intramuscular injections, with a frequency between every 2 to 4 weeks. Injection sites include the gluteal, ventrogluteal or vastus lateralis muscles. Needle gauge will depend on the person and volume.

Side effects may include rise in estradiol levels, facial/body hair growth and acne, testicular atrophy from reduced natural production, and more seriously - negative cardiovascular and liver changes. Though these can be managed under proper care and with ancillary medications.
