Yes-scrotal or inner-thigh skin yields higher absorption than torso sites; clinicians may select location based on desired pharmacokinetics and patient tolerance. Does topical testosterone raise the risk of heart attack? Compounded testosterone cream should be stored at 20 °C to 25 °C (controlled room temperature) with permissible excursions between 15 °C and 30 °C, protected from direct sunlight and excessive moisture to preserve emulsion integrity and prevent oxidative degradation of the steroid nucleus. Testosterone is primarily metabolized by hepatic CYP3A4; potent inhibitors (e.g., azole antifungals, ritonavir) may raise serum testosterone and DHT concentrations, whereas inducers (e.g., carbamazepine, rifampin) can reduce efficacy. Men with carcinoma of the breast or known or suspected prostate cancer must not receive exogenous androgens, as stimulation of androgen-responsive neoplastic tissue could accelerate tumor progression; therefore, screening digital rectal examination and age-appropriate PSA testing remain obligatory prior to initiation and during therapy. Testosterone cream is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to testosterone or any excipients in the base vehicle, including penetration enhancers or preservatives that may precipitate allergic or irritant contact dermatitis. Topical delivery avoids hepatic first-pass metabolism that converts testosterone to inactive epitestosterone and androstenedione, thereby achieving a higher bioavailability per milligram applied compared with oral or buccal routes.
