Testosterone: First of all, it's important that you don't take tv commercial ads seriously. They often talk about 'low t', like it's an epidemic. Testosterone testing is notoriously unreliable and the actual number of people with low t is a small fraction of what advertisers want you to believe. Therefore, for most people, it isn't necessary to boost your level. Low libido could be from depression, stress.

Options: No need to boost testosterone unless you have symptoms of low T, and blood levels of T are low, or very low normal range. If truly need T level increased, best options are topical T gel products applied to skin daily, or implantable T pellets placed under skin 2-4 times a year (depending on product used) in a 5 min offc procedure. Injections are synthetic, T levels and symptoms fluctuate.
