Introduction
Male health is greatly impacted by testosterone, which affects everything from mood and bone density to muscle mass and sexual performance. When testosterone levels fall below the normal range—a condition known as hypogonadism—symptoms like fatigue, decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and loss of muscle mass become common. One of the most effective and convenient treatment options is Testosterone Gel 5GM (Cernos).
Cernos Gel is a transdermal testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) that delivers testosterone through the skin, offering consistent absorption and mimicking the body’s natural hormonal rhythm. Manufactured by Sun Pharmaceutical Industries, Cernos Gel is widely prescribed to treat male hypogonadism when the body fails to produce adequate testosterone.
Composition and Strength
Each sachet or tube of Cernos Gel 5GM contains:
-
Testosterone (17β-Hydroxyandrost-4-en-3-one) – 1% w/w
(i.e., 50 mg testosterone in 5 grams of gel)
The gel is used topically to dry, clean skin and ranges in color from colorless to slightly yellow.
Pharmacological Classification
-
Drug Class: Androgens / Anabolic Steroids
-
Dosage Form: Topical gel
-
Route of Administration: Transdermal (applied to the skin)
-
Bioavailability: Approximately 10% of the applied dose
Mechanism of Action
The synthetic testosterone included in Cernos Gel is chemically identical to the hormone that the testes normally produce. After being applied topically, testosterone is transdermally absorbed and enters the bloodstream.
It attaches itself to androgen receptors in tissues such
-
Prostate
-
Muscle
-
Bone
-
Brain
-
Skin
This binding stimulates:
-
Protein synthesis
-
Increased muscle mass and strength
-
Libido enhancement
-
Improved mood and energy levels
-
Bone mineral density preservation
By restoring testosterone levels, Cernos Gel alleviates symptoms associated with hypogonadism and helps maintain masculine functions and characteristics.
