Hello
Thanks for query .You have not mentioned about your Testosterone value .You have been prescribed Testosterone in injectable form .
It is natural for every one to lower down Testosterone levels by 1% every year with advancing age above 50 years .
Injectable exogenous testosterone does help to improve general health and increase libido .However one his to monitor Testosterone levels in blood by blood tests for Serum Testosterone very three months so as to adjust doses and frequency of injections .
