What Testosterone Undecanoate is
Testosterone undecanoate is a testosterone ester used as testosterone replacement therapy in men with confirmed hypogonadism. It is available in different formulations, such as long-acting injection and oral capsules; the formulation is to be confirmed with the partner pharmacy.
