TRT typically costs about $40 to $100 per month for testosterone injections, which are usually the cheapest option.[1][7] If you use gels, creams, pills, or pellets, the monthly cost can be much higher, often $200 to $1,000+ per month depending on the formulation and whether labs/doctor visits are included.[2][3][7]
A practical breakdown is:
- Injections: about $20–$150/month depending on clinic, dose, and insurance.[1][4][7]
- Gels/creams: about $150–$600/month.[1][4][8]
- Oral testosterone: about $400–$1,000/month.[2][5][7]
- Pellets: about $500–$2,000 per treatment, which is usually spread over several months.[1][3][8]
The medication price alone is not the full cost. TRT often also includes lab work, provider visits, and ongoing monitoring, which can add meaningfully to the monthly or annual total.[2][7]
If you want, I can also estimate your likely monthly TRT cost based on injections vs gel vs pellets and whether you have insurance.
