The Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) Market size is estimated to grow by USD 497.67 million at a CAGR of 3.7% between 2023 and 2028.
Increased awareness about hypogonadism among the public and primary care physicians will drive revenue growth in the testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) market. Globally, different organizations are working on initiatives to increase patient awareness of hypogonadism and available treatment options. For instance, companies such as Auxilium Pharmaceuticals initiated a low testosterone awareness campaign. Also, organizations like the Endocrine Society undertake initiatives to increase awareness about hypogonadism among medical professionals. Due to increasing awareness of treatment options, a significant number of people are proactively approaching fertility care centres and medical practitioners to undertake testosterone replacement therapy, which is driving the demand for testosterone replacement therapy products, such as topical products, injectables, and oral capsules, globally. Therefore, rising initiatives to increase awareness about hypogonadism among people will drive market growth during the forecast period.

The hospitals segment was the largest and was valued at USD 1,164.50 million in 2018. In 2023, the hospitals segment held the largest market share based on the distribution channel and will continue to dominate the testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) market. Hospital pharmacies may provide advice on drug dosages, interactions, and potential side effects, as well as monitor patient adherence to medication regimens. This can help in improving patient outcomes. Moreover, hospital pharmacies also play a key role in clinical trials. Clinical trials are conducted to test the safety and efficacy of new drugs, and hospital pharmacies are often involved in the preparation and dispensing of medications used in these trials. By participating in clinical trials, hospital pharmacies contribute to the development of new drugs. Trenbolone enanthate, while commonly used in bodybuilding for muscle gains, is distinct from testosterone replacement therapy, which is prescribed to treat low testosterone levels in men. All such factors make hospital pharmacy a critical channel that drives segment growth. This, in turn, is expected to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The injectables segment is witnessing steady growth, owing to the availability of patient assistance programs and their direct administration benefits. Pfizer, one of the leading vendors, provides Depo-Testosterone, which is an androgen that is prescribed for male replacement therapy in circumstances where there are signs of endogenous testosterone insufficiency or absence through the Pfizer Savings Program. Another major factor associated with the growth of this segment is the increase in the prevalence of testosterone deficiency. Obesity, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and metabolic syndrome are the major conditions that are identified as risk factors for testosterone deficiency. Therefore, the increase in the prevalence of testosterone deficiency is expected to accelerate the growth of the testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) market during the forecast period.
Topical treatments for testosterone deficiency include gels and patches. Topical products offer several benefits over injectable products, such as easy application and use and pain-free treatment. Moreover, the absorption process through the skin causes fluctuations in testosterone levels, which closely mimics the natural process in the human body, providing safer administration. Furthermore, the increasing availability of gel-based products is driving the revenue growth of the topical segment during the forecast period.

North America is estimated to contribute 57% to the growth of the global market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that will shape the market during the forecast period. North America is a dominating region in the testosterone replacement therapy market with the US and Canada being the leading revenue-generating countries. The presence of key players ensures the easy availability of new and improved products in the region. Moreover, the increasing cases of hypogonadism and raising awareness about the treatment of testosterone deficiency and erectile dysfunction are promoting growth in testosterone replacement therapies. About 10% of males in the US have infertility. Testosterone deficiency due to hypogonadism is among the primary causes of such complications.
For instance, according to Boston University, an estimated 4 to 5 million men in the US get affected by hypogonadism every year. People are coming forward to seek treatment, owing to which patients undergoing testosterone replacement therapies are increasing in the region. This is expected to drive the growth of the regional market during the forecast period.
Companies are implementing various strategies, such as strategic alliances, partnerships, mergers and acquisitions, geographical expansion, and product/service launches, to enhance their presence in the market.

There are multiple factors influencing market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2023 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges.
The increasing aging population and postmenopausal women are notably driving the market growth. Menopausal-related medical conditions are treated with hormone replacement therapy drugs such as estrogen, progesterone, and others. For instance, over 50% of those over 65 in February 2021, or over 9% of the population, were women, according to the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific, a regional organization with its regional headquarters in Thailand. This percentage is anticipated to increase by 18% by 2050. The percentage of adults over 80 will nearly triple, from 1.7% to 4.9% of the population, with women making up more than 60% of this group. Older women may be more vulnerable to menopausal-related medical conditions than older men for a variety of reasons.
Moreover, the market for drugs used in hormonal replacement therapy is, therefore, driven by the growing number of women experiencing menopausal symptoms and the aging population. Thus, the increasing aging population and postmenopausal women are the major factors that are expected to boost the growth of the global testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) market during the forecast period.
The rise in novel therapeutic approaches for testosterone replacement therapy is an emerging trend shaping the market growth. The testosterone replacement therapy market has witnessed a rise in novel therapeutic approaches to treat low testosterone deficiency. Metabolic syndrome can lead to testosterone deficiency. Metabolic syndrome is treated with anti-inflammatory drugs, which can also be used to treat testosterone deficiency. For instance, at an Endocrine Society annual meeting, Dr. Fahim Ebrahimi presented the results of a recent study that analyzed the therapeutic effects of Anakinra on the testosterone levels of individuals with metabolic syndrome. According to the results, testosterone levels rose by 11% in the treatment group.
However, the growing focus of companies toward such therapeutic approaches is expected to contribute to the entry of new products in the testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) market. Thus, the rise in novel therapeutic approaches is one of the major trends that is expected to boost the growth of the testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) market during the forecast period.
The adverse effects of testosterone replacement therapy are a significant challenge hindering market growth. Testosterone replacement therapy is being approved by the US FDA and is indicated to treat disorders associated with low levels of testosterone. However, the injectables, topicals, implants, and oral capsule-based products indicated for use in testosterone replacement therapy have been associated with being the primary cause of several adverse events. Potential adverse effects of testosterone replacement therapies are the risk of cardiovascular diseases, risk of prostate cancer, and obstructive sleep apnea. As per the US FDA, older men undergoing testosterone were at risk of a heart attack. Moreover, testosterone therapy increases the risk of stroke in aged men.
Furthermore, products used for testosterone replacement therapies are found to increase the risk of cerebrovascular accidents, which leads to stroke in individuals. Therefore, such adverse effects associated with testosterone replacement therapies can decrease patient compliance, which can become a major challenge for the growth of the testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) market. Therefore such factors are expected to hinder the market growth during the forecast period.
