In rare cases, it's been prescribed to ciswomen. I inject a very small amount of testosterone cypionate every 4 days. It's been working out quite well for me and I have had much better results vs gel daily. Less side-effects (coarser body hair, acne/oily skin) and more benefits like increased energy and strength, libido, sensate clitoris, less cellulite, nicer skin and hair, improved mental disposition (calmer, improved memory, better mood), sleeping better.
Sometimes, you need be a little bold to get where you want.

The problem with gel is that since testosterone is applied to the skin where there is a high concentration of 5-alpha reductase, more of it gets converted to DHT so that one gets more DHT then they should relative to T. DHT is a stronger, more potent androgen which results in scalp hair loss, acne, more and darker body hair (especially where applied).

I didn't like it.
