Is It Normal To Have Soreness In Penis After Taking Testosterone Injections?
Due to my energy levels my doctor presribed testosterone injections. Was 2x monthly now 1x every 10 days. My question is I constantly feel I am trying to get an erection and nightly when I do it is like even my briefs touching me makes it sort of sore and tender, is this normal?

Hello,
No, it is not common to have soreness in the penis after testosterone injections. However, its possible after getting an infection or some inflammatory conditions. I need to know if you are sexually active or not. Do you have any burning, bleeding or any foul smelling discharge in urine. I suggest you to visit your doctor for local examination and tests if needed.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
