Yes for boys: If you mean testosterone gels - not compounded creams which may or may not contain enough testosterone. First find out why you have delayed puberty.

Not advised: Something with more accurate dose measurement would be a patch or long acting testosterone injection. Creams and gels get on clothes and sheets so also expose others to the hormone. Inadequate hand washing following application may also expose others
