Testosterone Propionate is used for growth and development of male reproductive organs, maintains secondary sex characteristics, increases protein anabolism and decreases protein catabolism.

In contrast to the long acting enanthate and cypionate depot, propionate has a distinctly lower duration of effect. The main difference between testosterone propionate, cypionate, and enanthate is the respective duration of effect. Testosterone proprionate has a duration of effect of 1 to 2 days. An eye-catching difference, however, is that the patient draws distinctly less water with propionate and visibly lower water retention occurs.

Since propionate is quickly effective, often after only one or two days, the patient experiences an increase of his training energy, a better pump, an increased appetite, and a slight strength gain.
