Pharmacodynamics. Testosterone is primary male sex hormone synthesized and emitted by testicles. It stimulates growth and development of men's generative organs and secondary sexual characteristics (maturing of a prostate, seed bubbles, a penis and a scrotum), distribution of hair on men's type on a face, a pubis, a breast), development of a throat, muscles of a body and fat distribution. Nitrogen, sodium, potassium and phosphorus detains, strengthens anabolism and reduces a catabolism of proteins. Premature increase in concentration of testosterone in a blood plasma during the period before puberty causes closing of an epiphysis and suspension of growth. Stimulates products of erythropoetin and erythrocytes. On a negative feedback mechanism (feedback) oppresses secretion of luteinizing and follicle-stimulating hormones of a hypophysis and the spermatogenesis oppresses.

Testosteroni propionas has biological and medicinal properties of natural hormone, but is more slowly soaked up and testosterone is more resistant in an organism, than. Testosteroni propionas is appointed mainly to men at a sexual underdevelopment, functional disturbances in a reproductive system, a menopausal syndrome, at an acromegalia.
