A well known news weekly has recently given wide publicity to the method adopted by Foss in England of administering to patients testosterone propionate by inunction. Following this work, several firms have put on the market ointments containing testosterone propionate. Foss and also Parkes administered to several eunuchs doses of from 20 to 50 mg. of testosterone propionate in about 2 cc. of ointment daily in order to obtain satisfactory results. The products marketed in this country contain only 2 mg. of the androgen per cubic centimeter of ointment. It is apparent, therefore, that to administer the appropriate amount of active material the patient must anoint himself with from 10 to 25 cc. of ointment daily. This would, of course, make quite a mess.
