According to Chinese medical philosphy, the kidneys are directly related to male virility and female fertility. Almost all sexual disorders are connected with the kidney system.

By “nourishing the kidneys”, sexual virility or fertility can be achieved,worst off, it assist in maintaining one’s overall vitaily and health.

For the Chinese, everything can be classified into yin and yang, including the kidneys. There is kidney yin and kidney yang; kidney yin refers to water in the kidney which kidney yang refers to fire in the kidney. The concept of fire is a very important one in Chinese medicine - here it refers to the kidney’s capacity to become energetic, active both in lifesytle and sexual performances. Therefore in Chinese medicine when a man becomes sexually impotent, it is attributed to ” insufficient kidney fire”; when a man is sexually overactive, it is attributed to “excessive kidney fire”.

Interestingly, Chinese medical expert conceptualize that when a man has a higher level of the burning fire of kidneys , he remains skinny and has a strong sexual capacity. To be slim is to be sexy. A fat guy will not have a strong sexual capacity and a guy with a strong sexual capacity will not be fat.

The different pharmaceutical forms of testosterone for human administration currently available includes the following:

• Injectable ( such as testosterone cypionate/testosterone enanthate in oil)
• Oral Andriol,
• Bucall Striant
• Transdermal skin patches and transdermal creams
• Gels Androgel and Testim
• Roll on and Nasal Sprays

Some interesting roles that Testosterone have played:

Testosterone & Sports/Athletes:

Increasing testerone is often used by athletes to improve their performance, and in the former Eastern Germany they even used it in women athletes so they would have superior physical abilities to other competitors. The noticeable side effects on those women are growth of facial hair and outer look that was male like. In men however, a slight increase in testerone levels can have great effects on their physical shape. Anabolic steroid ( of which testosterone is one) have also be taken to enhance muscle development, strength/endurance. After a series of scandals and publicity in the 1980s such as Ben Jonhson’s improved performance at the 1988 Summer Olympics, anabolic steroids were designated as “controlled substance.” 

Many other applications of Testosterone includes the following:

• The original intention of Testosterone were the treatment of males who have too little or no natural endogeneous testosterone production-males with hypogonadism. Appropriate use for this purpose is legitimate hormone replacement therapy which maintains serum testosterone levels in the normal range
• Infertility
• Lack of libido
• Erectile dysfunction
• Osteoporosis
• Penile enlargement
• Height growth
• Bone marrow stimulation
• Reversal of anemia
• Appetite stimulation

• As Anti ageing wonder drug ( the decline of testosterone production with age has led to a demand for Androgen Replacement Therapy) 

• Testosterone is often administered to female-to-male transsexual men as part of the hormone replacement therapy, with a “target level” of the normal male testosterone level.
  

• Like-wise, male-to-female transsexual women are sometimes prescribed drugs [anti-androgens] to decrease the level of testosterone in the body and allow for the effects of estrogen to develop.

• Women may also use testosterone therapies to treat or prevent loss of bone density, muscle mass and to treat certain kinds of depression and low energy state
