Brief Answer: You can take testosterone 1000 mg every 3 month. Detailed Answer: Dear sir , Though you have not specified the cause of low testosterone , if you are still low with the present dose definitely you need to take a higher dose. You have market preparations available with 1000mg depot which you can take every 3 months. You can let me know how you are doing with it. I would definitely not be able to write a prescription here hence you can discuss about my views with your treating doctor. Perhaps he/she can write you the prescription. Regards
