Testosterone propionate, sold under the brand name Testoviron among others, is an androgen and anabolic steroid medication

Yes I just read that.Testosterone does get produced by our bodies but propionate gets injected.

many men now use T injections after the age of 50... but its monitored by a doctor and not for young people unless they have endocrine problems or are doing it illegally for bodybuilding and other sports

......testosterone is present in almost all male mammals that still have their testes in tact....most anabolic steroids synthesize or even introduce additional testosterone as this is a metabolite of the anabolic action....so the testosterone levels are greatly increased above normal thresholds.....when drug testing for steroids many cannot be detected....however it is the higher levels of testosterone that are detected that indicate that steroids must have
been used....
