Androrise Gel

Androrise Gel belongs to a group of medicines called androgens indicated for replacement therapy in males for conditions associated with deficiency/absence of endogenous testosterone, such as acquired or congenital primary hypogonadism and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. Testosterone replacement therapy, also known as androgen replacement therapy, is used to treat low testosterone levels.

Androrise Gel contains Testosterone, which helps replenish the deficient testosterone levels in adult men. Thereby, Androrise Gel helps in treating low testosterone levels. Testosterone is the anabolic steroid and primary sex hormone in males, which plays an important role in the development of male reproductive tissues like the prostate and testes.

In some cases, Androrise Gel may cause side effects such as application site reactions, acne, prostatic disorders, and headache. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.

Let your doctor know if you are allergic to any of the components in Androrise Gel. Do not use Androrise Gel if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Androrise Gel is not recommended for children below 18 years as safety and effectiveness have not been established. Keep your doctor informed about your health conditions and the medicines you are taking to rule out any side effects/interactions.

Do not use Androrise Gel if you are allergic to any of its components, if you have prostate cancer or breast cancer, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Androrise Gel is not intended for use in women due to a lack of controlled studies on women. Inform your doctor if you have high blood pressure, heart problems, high red blood cell count or haemoglobin/haematocrit levels, enlarged prostate, liver or kidney problems, migraine, sleep apnoea (breathing problem while sleeping), hypercalcemia (high calcium levels), hypercalciuria (excess calcium in the urine) or oedema. Androrise Gel is not recommended for children below 18 years as safety and effectiveness have not been established. Virilisation (female develops characteristics associated with male hormones) have been reported in children who were secondarily exposed to testosterone gel. Children should avoid contact with unclothed/unwashed application sites of men using Androrise Gel.

• Tuna, egg yolks, fortified cereals, oysters, shellfish, and beans are good sources of Testosterone.

• Application site reactions
• Acne
• Headache
• Prostatic disorders

• Avoid flame, fire, or smoking until the gel has dried.

Testosterone replacement therapy: Testosterone replacement therapy, also known as androgen replacement therapy, is used to treat low testosterone levels. Testosterone is the anabolic steroid and primary sex hormone in males, which plays an important role in developing male reproductive tissues like the prostate and testes. Symptoms of low testosterone include reduced sex drive, erectile dysfunction, low/zero sperm count, loss of pubic/armpit hair, shrinking testicles, and hot flashes.

Primary hypogonadism: Primary hypogonadism is a condition in which the gonads (testes in men and ovaries in women) produce insufficient sex hormones. Sex hormones are responsible for secondary sexual characteristics such as testicular development in men and breast development in women. Autoimmune disorders, genetic disorders, severe infections, pituitary disorders, and inflammatory diseases could be the causes of hypogonadism. Symptoms of hypogonadism include abnormal breast growth, erectile dysfunction, muscle loss, loss of body hair, osteoporosis, low sex drive, infertility, fatigue, hot flashes, and difficulty concentrating.

Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism: It is a form of hypogonadism that occurs due to a problem with the hypothalamus or pituitary gland. It is caused due to lack of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and luteinising hormone (LH). Damage to the pituitary gland, genetic defects, high prolactin levels, severe stress, nutritional problems, and certain medical conditions could be the causes of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.
