There are many options. Unfortunaterly most US doctors are pretty ignorant of testosterone deficiency. Those doctors who have many AIDS patients will have experience with using testosterone to combat muscle wasting. Some choices::,
1) injection of testosterone. Many different forms,
2) Injection of other steroids,
3) testosterone gel applied to body (Testim),
4) patch applied to scrotum,
5) "buccal" plug that sits on gum under lip for 12 hours,
6) implant that sits under skin for six months ,
7) injections of a pituitary product that stimulates testes to prodyce testosterone,
8) methyl testosterone capsules,
9) bunch of herbal stuff (tribulus etc) that allegedly/questionably increase testosterone production
