Can testosterone therapy help kids with delayed ?

Not exactly: I assume you're asking about delayed puberty. The boy needs an endocrine evaluation and genetic testing to determine cause of delayed puberty prior to starting testosterone. Often, he will respond to pituitary gland stimulation which is better to preserve fertility.
