Q: is it safe to inject testosterone while taking antiboitics for orchitis caused by chlamydia?

Yes, but...: In general, at your age (20) it isn&#x27;t &quot;safe&quot; to inject testosterone at all. If medically indicated or as part of a muscle building program, I hope you are doing it with medical supervision. In any case, it will not interfere with the antibiotic or with its effectiveness against chlamydia or orchitis.
