Testosterone 100-200 mg/g cream (25-100 mg daily)
Compounded medications are prepared by state-licensed pharmacies. Prescription only — available if a licensed provider determines treatment is appropriate after your online visit. Not available in all states.
Lab work is billed separately at a flat $115 per session (before starting and every 90 days). No insurance, no membership fees, no auto-renewal.
Testosterone in a concentrated cream base (100–200 mg per gram) is absorbed through the skin into the bloodstream over the course of the day, restoring testosterone to a healthy range and holding it there with daily use. Because it's applied every day rather than injected weekly, levels stay flat without the end-of-week dip some men feel on injections.
The cream's higher concentration lets your provider prescribe larger doses than a spray delivers, which makes it a strong option for men who need more replacement but want to stay needle-free. Transdermal testosterone is an established FDA-approved route; this compounded cream is prepared by a licensed U.S. pharmacy and is not itself FDA-approved.
Your provider prescribes 25–100 mg daily, measured with the supplied applicator and rubbed into clean, dry skin on the upper arms, shoulders or inner thigh at the same time each day. Let it dry fully before dressing and wash your hands afterward.
Your 90-day labs are drawn a few hours after application so your provider can see your peak level and adjust the dose. Each 3-month plan covers 90 days at your prescribed dose.
Testosterone cream is for men 35 and older with lab-confirmed low testosterone and symptoms such as fatigue, low libido, loss of muscle or brain fog, who want direct replacement without injections and can commit to a daily application routine and ongoing lab monitoring. It's a good fit for men who need a higher transdermal dose or who prefer a cream to a spray.
Men who want the lowest-mess option may prefer the hypospray; men under 35 or those keeping fertility in the picture are usually better served by Enclomiphene. Your provider recommends a path after reviewing your labs.
Weeks 1–4. Levels rise into the healthy range. Many men notice better energy, mood, motivation and libido within the first few weeks as the fog of low testosterone lifts.
Months 2–3. Sleep deepens, recovery after exercise improves and body composition starts to shift as insulin sensitivity improves. Your first follow-up labs at 90 days confirm your dose.
Months 3–6. Strength and lean muscle gains compound with training, and benefits stabilize as levels stay steady. Your provider fine-tunes the dose based on labs and how you feel.
Ongoing. Testosterone therapy is maintenance treatment: benefits continue with consistent use and quarterly labs, and taper off if treatment stops.

Measure the prescribed dose with the supplied applicator and rub it into clean, dry skin on the upper arms, shoulders or inner thigh once daily at the same time. Let it dry fully before dressing, wash your hands, and keep the area covered or washed before close skin contact with women or children.
Yes, applied daily it produces consistent levels without the weekly peak and trough of an injection. Absorption varies between people, so your provider uses your 90-day lab results to fine-tune the dose, and timing your blood draw a few hours after application gives the most useful reading.
Testosterone replacement therapy restores testosterone to a healthy range in men whose levels are low and who have symptoms such as persistent fatigue, low libido, loss of muscle, brain fog, low mood or poor sleep and recovery. GobyMeds confirms low testosterone with a blood test before any prescription is written, and your provider reviews both your labs and your symptoms.
A comprehensive panel is required before starting and every 90 days while you're on treatment. We charge a flat $115 per lab session, which covers the blood draw at a lab near you and your provider's review, about $38 a month. Labs are the only cost outside your plan price; there are no membership or hidden fees.
Testosterone replacement (injections, hypospray and cream) suppresses the signals that drive sperm production, so it can reduce fertility while you're on it and is not recommended if you may want children soon. Enclomiphene works differently: it raises your own testosterone by stimulating those signals, which is why it's the usual choice for younger men and those keeping fertility in the picture. Talk this through with your provider before choosing a path.
Yes. A team of licensed U.S. providers reviews your initial labs, writes your protocol, checks your follow-up labs every three months and is available by message between visits. Dose changes are made based on your levels and how you feel, not a fixed schedule.
Testosterone Support uses enclomiphene, a once-daily capsule that prompts your pituitary to signal your testes to make more testosterone, so your natural production is preserved. TRT delivers testosterone directly as an injection, spray or cream and is built for men 35 and older whose production is unlikely to recover. A licensed provider reviews your labs and helps you choose.
Common effects include acne or oily skin, fluid retention, mood changes, reduced sperm count and testicular shrinkage, and a rise in red blood cell count or blood pressure. Testosterone can worsen sleep apnea and may stimulate an existing prostate cancer, which is why PSA and hematocrit are checked at every lab session. Topical forms can transfer to others through skin contact, so wash your hands and cover the area. Tell your provider right away about chest pain, shortness of breath, leg swelling or a severe headache.
If a GobyMeds provider decides a prescription isn't appropriate for you, you receive a 100% refund of the medication price (lab fees, where they apply, are not refunded). Once your order has been sent to our medical partners or to the pharmacy for fulfillment we will do our best to accommodate changes or cancellations, but we can't guarantee them, and in some cases an adjustment or cancellation carries a $50 medical consultation fee.
Because of regulations covering prescription medication, we are unable to accept returned medication for a refund.
No insurance is needed and GobyMeds does not bill insurance. The price you see is the price you pay, with provider consultation and shipping included and no membership fee.
HSA and FSA cards are accepted at checkout, and we can provide a letter of medical necessity if your plan administrator asks for one.
You answer a short health questionnaire and upload a photo ID. A licensed U.S. provider reviews your history, confirms the treatment is appropriate, and writes the prescription. There is no video call to schedule unless your provider or your state requires one, and follow-up messaging with your care team is included with every plan.
If you're not a candidate, you'll be told why and refunded in full.
Daily topical testosterone cream, 25-100 mg, provider-guided with real lab work.
Start your online visitCommon effects of testosterone therapy include acne or oily skin, fluid retention, mood changes, breast tenderness, reduced sperm count and testicular shrinkage, and a rise in red blood cell count (hematocrit) or blood pressure. Testosterone can worsen sleep apnea, may stimulate an existing prostate cancer and can raise PSA, which is why hematocrit, PSA, estradiol and lipids are checked at every 90-day lab session. Seek care right away for chest pain, shortness of breath, one-sided leg swelling, slurred speech or a sudden severe headache. Report side effects to the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.
Topical-specific effects include skin irritation, redness or acne at the application site. Testosterone cream can transfer to others through skin contact and has caused early puberty signs in children exposed accidentally: wash your hands after applying, let the area dry and keep it covered or washed before close contact with women or children.
Testosterone is not prescribed to men with known or suspected prostate or breast cancer, to anyone who is trying to conceive, or to women. Tell your provider about heart disease, a history of blood clots or stroke, untreated sleep apnea, high red blood cell count, severe urinary symptoms from an enlarged prostate, liver or kidney disease and all medications you take, including blood thinners and insulin. Prescription only; available only when a licensed provider determines it is appropriate after reviewing your labs. Not available in all states. Do not apply to the genitals or to broken skin. Compounded drug products are not approved or evaluated for safety, effectiveness or quality by the FDA. Testosterone is a Schedule III controlled substance.
