Testosterone cypionate 200 mg/mL (100-150 mg weekly)
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.
Low testosterone saps energy, drive, strength, focus and recovery. Testosterone cypionate is testosterone bound to a slow-release ester; injected into muscle or under the skin, it is released gradually over the week, restoring circulating testosterone to a healthy range. With levels stable, the body resumes normal protein synthesis for muscle, red blood cell production, bone maintenance, libido and the cognitive functions testosterone supports.
Weekly dosing of 100–150 mg avoids the peaks and valleys of older every-two-week schedules, so energy and mood stay even. Testosterone cypionate is FDA-approved for testosterone replacement in men with confirmed low testosterone; it is dispensed by a licensed U.S. pharmacy.
Your provider sets a starting dose, typically 100–150 mg once weekly, based on your baseline labs, symptoms and body size. You inject on the same day each week into the thigh or glute (intramuscular) or under the skin of the abdomen (subcutaneous), as prescribed; some providers split the dose into two smaller subcutaneous injections for even smoother levels.
Follow-up labs at 90 days measure total and free testosterone, estradiol, hematocrit and PSA, and your dose is adjusted from there. Each 3-month plan covers 12 weekly doses.
Testosterone cypionate is for men 35 and older with lab-confirmed low testosterone and symptoms such as persistent fatigue, low libido, loss of muscle, brain fog or low mood, who want direct replacement, are not prioritizing fertility and are comfortable with a weekly self-injection and ongoing lab monitoring. It's often the choice for men whose levels are well below range or who have not responded to enclomiphene.
Men under 35, men who may want children soon and men who prefer to avoid injections are usually better served by Enclomiphene (Testosterone Support) or a topical form; your provider will recommend 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.
Answers from the GobyMeds care team. Still have a question? Your provider can answer it during your online visit.
Testosterone cypionate is drawn from a multi-dose vial and injected once a week into the thigh or glute (intramuscular) or under the skin of the abdomen (subcutaneous), whichever your provider prescribes. Your kit includes syringes, needles and alcohol swabs, and you'll receive step-by-step instructions and a video walkthrough; most men are comfortable after the first or second dose.
Cypionate is a slow-release ester, but levels still drift down toward the end of a two-week interval, which can mean peaks and valleys in energy and mood. Weekly dosing of 100–150 mg keeps levels steadier. Some providers split the weekly dose into two smaller subcutaneous injections for even smoother levels.
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.
Once-weekly testosterone cypionate injection (100-150 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.
Injection-specific effects include soreness, redness or a small lump at the injection site and, rarely, a brief cough or flushing immediately after injecting (pulmonary oil microembolism). Rotate sites and inject slowly.
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. Testosterone cypionate is a Schedule III controlled substance and must be taken exactly as prescribed.
