Repeat testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) for men already prescribed it by a GP or specialist. Tell us about your current treatment and recent blood tests, and a UK pharmacist prescriber will check it’s still safe to continue.
Your current product and dose, who prescribed it, and your latest blood results.
A UK pharmacist prescriber confirms it’s safe to continue and that your monitoring is up to date.
If approved before 3pm, Mon–Fri, in plain packaging.
Low testosterone (testosterone deficiency, or hypogonadism) is when the body doesn’t make enough testosterone. It can cause low sex drive, erection problems, tiredness, low mood and loss of muscle. It’s diagnosed with blood tests taken in the morning, and confirmed by a GP or specialist.
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) brings testosterone back into the normal range. Most men in the UK use a daily skin gel. Because treatment is long-term and needs regular blood tests, we provide repeat prescriptions only, for men whose treatment was started by a GP or specialist.
For symptoms, causes and how low testosterone is diagnosed, see our guide to low testosterone.
We supply the same testosterone gel and dose your GP or specialist prescribed. We don’t switch brands or change doses online.
| Treatment | Each dose | Usual dose | Where you apply it | Wait before showering |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Testogel pump (16.2mg/g) | 1 press = 20.25mg | 2 presses a day (up to 4) | Shoulders or upper arms | 1 hour |
| Testogel sachets (40.5mg) | 1 sachet = 40.5mg | 1 sachet a day (up to 2) | Shoulders or upper arms | 1 hour |
| Testavan (20mg/g) | 1 pump = 23mg | 1 pump a day (up to 3) | Upper arm and shoulder, with the applicator | 2 hours |
| Tostran (2%) | 1 press = 10mg | 6 presses a day (up to 8) | Abdomen or inner thighs | 2 hours |
Already on TRT? Order your repeat prescription.
You can order a repeat prescription if all of these apply:
We’ll ask you to see your GP or specialist instead if:
Checks your dose is right. Usually at 3 to 6 months, at 12 months, then every year.
TRT can thicken the blood. Above 0.54, treatment is paused until it falls. Between 0.52 and 0.54 it’s reviewed.
A prostate check for men aged 40 and over, at 3 to 6 months and 12 months, then every year. A rise needs review.
Checked at least once a year, usually by your GP.
Testosterone treatment is always started by a doctor. Where we fit in:
Your GP tests you and usually refers you to a specialist to start treatment. Your GP may then take over prescribing and blood tests (shared care).
Can diagnose low testosterone and start treatment, for a fee, with its own monitoring.
Repeat prescriptions only, once you’re settled on a gel. We check your prescription and blood results, and keep your GP informed.
Studies haven’t shown that TRT causes prostate cancer, but it isn’t suitable if you already have it. That’s why PSA is checked before and during treatment.
It can pass to others through skin contact. Wash your hands, cover the area and wash it before close contact.
It does the opposite. Testosterone treatment reduces sperm production, so it isn’t suitable if you’re trying for a baby.
Levels above the normal range raise the risk of side effects such as thick blood. Your dose is set by blood tests.
Answers about repeat testosterone prescriptions online.
No. We only provide repeat prescriptions for men whose treatment was started by a GP or specialist. Low testosterone has to be confirmed with blood tests, and other causes ruled out, before treatment begins. A home testosterone blood test is a good first step before seeing your GP.
Proof of your current prescription with the product and dose, such as a repeat slip or clinic letter, and blood test results from the last 12 months, including testosterone, haematocrit and, if you’re 40 or over, PSA.
Not online. We supply the same product and dose you’re already prescribed. Speak to your GP or specialist if you want to change.
Enough for about 30 days at your prescribed dose, in whole packs. Testosterone is a controlled drug, and monthly supply is the usual good practice.
Testosterone treatment needs regular checks of your testosterone level, haematocrit and PSA to make sure it’s working and safe to continue.
We may supply one more month while you arrange them, if it’s safe to, but we won’t continue without up-to-date results. A home blood test can help.
Yes. We share your prescription details with your GP, so your medical record stays complete. We can’t supply testosterone if you don’t agree to this.
Yes. It’s a Schedule 4 controlled drug in the UK. That’s why we check your prescription and blood tests, and supply about a month at a time.
Yes, through skin contact. Wash your hands after applying it, cover the area with clothing once it’s dry, and wash the area before close contact. Pregnant women must avoid contact with it.
Yes. Your GP can arrange the blood tests and refer you to a specialist, and many areas then let your GP prescribe it. Our service is for men who are already on treatment and want a convenient repeat.
If your consultation isn’t approved, you’ll get a full refund. We’ll tell you why, and what to do next, which is usually to see your GP or specialist for a review or up-to-date blood tests.
Yes. Testosterone treatment reduces sperm production, which can make it harder to conceive. Tell your GP or specialist if you’re planning a family.
