Pharmacodynamics. Testosterone ципионат is testosterone ether. 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. At men with primary hyper gonadotropic hypogonadism normalization of level of gonadotrophins is noted.

At women oppresses gonadotropic function of a hypophysis, function of ovaries, mammary glands, causes an endometria atrophy. Antagonistic action in relation to estrogen is applied at treatment of myomas, endometriosis, breast cancer. Shows beneficial effect at complaints of a climacteric.
