Brief Answer: TRT Detailed Answer: I see What form of TRT are you on ? Injections, gel or patch or something else If you are on injections then may I assume you have received only one dose because these are typically administered once every one to three weeks. In this case, the effects should wear off completely in a couple weeks as the testosterone gets completely eliminated from your body and the blood levels return to pre-treatment levels If you are on the daily gel or patch, the effects are short lived. In this case too by a week or two the testosterone is virtually gone from your body
