When testosterone hormone levels are low, a healthcare provider or doctor can prescribe synthetic or natural forms of testosterone to restore normal levels. Testosterone is sold both generically and under brand names like Aveed, Delatestryl, and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Depo-Testosterone<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Most of the time, testosterone is administered by injection, but it can also be taken as a tablet, gel, or patch.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Testosterone replacement therapy <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(TRT)<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is FDA-approved to treat males with hypogonadism\u00a0 (lower than normal testosterone levels). It can also be used to treat conditions like delayed puberty and low testosterone levels caused by chronic illnesses and certain cancers. Testosterone is also prescribed off-label to provide gender affirming care for transgender males, and for women during menopause.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"does-insurance-cover-testosterone\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Does insurance cover testosterone?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, health insurance does typically cover testosterone, says Pranav Dadhich, MD, a urologist focused on men\u2019s health. \u201cI prescribe various formulations of testosterone and treat a large number of patients with testicular hypofunction,\u201d he shares. \u201cHowever, there can be significant burdens and prior authorizations that delay prescription of the medication.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s important to understand that health insurance coverage can be complicated, and coverage for testosterone treatment can vary based on a myriad of factors. Not only that, but testosterone <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">copays<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">coinsurance<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> may come into play, meaning that even when your health insurance company covers testosterone, there may be additional out-of-pocket expenses that you are responsible for. Additionally, some insurance companies may encourage you to try a generic version of testosterone before covered brand names, such as <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AndroGel<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Testim<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, or Depo-Testosterone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are some specific considerations to keep in mind when it comes to the question: Is testosterone covered by insurance?<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"coverage-based-on-testosterone-formulation\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coverage based on testosterone formulation<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coverage can depend partly on the type of testosterone your healthcare provider prescribes, whether injections, gels, patches, or tablets. \u201cSome of the newer formulations of testosterone (oral therapies) have lower rates of coverage and often require that a previous form of therapy (gels or injectables) have failed or resulted in some sort of complication,\u201d Dr. Dadhich says.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Linda Khoshaba, NMD, FABNE, board-certified in naturopathic endocrinology and founder of Natural Endocrinology Specialists (NES), shares that in her experience, not all forms of testosterone are equally covered by insurance. \u201cThe delivery method absolutely matters when it comes to what insurance will pay for,\u201d she says, noting that testosterone injections are typically the most affordable and most widely covered by insurance carriers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cGels and patches are more convenient for some people, but they tend to be more expensive and are sometimes only partially covered\u2014especially if they\u2019re brand-name,\u201d Dr. Khoshaba explains. \u201cTablets are less commonly prescribed and often not covered at all.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"coverage-based-on-medical-conditions\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coverage based on medical conditions<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether or not your health insurance company covers testosterone also depends in part on what underlying condition your healthcare provider has diagnosed you with.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Typically, health insurance companies will cover testosterone when it\u2019s prescribed for <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">low testosterone levels<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (hypogonadism), says Dr. Dadhich. Often, your provider will need to provide documentation to your health insurance company that you have hypogonadism. \u201cMost insurers require documentation of at least two morning testosterone levels that are low,\u201d says Dr. Dadhich. \u201cSome will require additional documentation of pituitary gonadotropins (hormones secreted by the pituitary gland that signal the cells in the testicle to make testosterone).\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The process of proving to your insurance company that you qualify for testosterone can be tedious and discouraging, Betsy Greenleaf, DO, triple board-certified urogynecologist and founder of International Pause Institute, says. \u201cI have spent long, frustrating hours arguing with insurance companies that the patient\u2019s testosterone is now normal because they are being treated,\u201d she shares. \u201cOccasionally, we would have to take people off hormones and then retest and then wait until it is low and then prescribe again.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coverage for other medical conditions can vary from one insurance company to another. \u201cGender-affirming hormone therapy is more likely to be covered now than it used to be, especially with ACA (Affordable Care Act) plans, but it still depends on the insurer,\u201d Dr. Khoshaba says. \u201cSometimes there\u2019s more paperwork or extra hoops to jump through when it\u2019s prescribed for gender-affirming purposes.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for women in menopause who are seeking testosterone, it\u2019s usually not covered, and typically, patients end up paying for it out of pocket, Dr. Greenleaf says.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"coverage-based-on-insurance-type\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coverage based on insurance type<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The type of health insurance you have can also affect whether your testosterone prescription is covered. Here\u2019s what to know, according to Dr. Khoshaba:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employer-sponsored plans and most ACA marketplace plans cover testosterone, but what they cover and how much you have to pay out of pocket vary quite a bit.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Medicaid is state-specific. Some states reliably cover both hypogonadism and gender-affirming therapy, but others do not.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some Medicare Part D plans cover testosterone, but usually only when it\u2019s prescribed for low testosterone. Even then, you may need prior approval.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"other-criteria-for-coverage\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other criteria for coverage<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There may be other hurdles to pass through in order for your prescription to be covered.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For instance, often prior authorization is needed before your plan will cover testosterone. This is especially likely if you are asking for coverage for brand-name testosterone or less common formulations like gels, Dr. Khoshaba says.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lastly, some insurance plans will require step therapy before prescribing testosterone. \u201cThis means you\u2019ll have to try the cheaper version (like an injection) first before they\u2019ll approve other forms,\u201d Dr. Khoshaba explains.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"coupon-cta\" class=\"coupon-cta master-template\">\n<p id=\"headline\">Save up to 80% on Testosterone Cypionate with <\/p>\n<p id=\"subheadline\">Different pharmacies offer different prices for the same medication.  helps find the best price for you.<\/p>\n<div class=\"details-wrap\">\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t\tTestosterone Cypionate 1 mL of 200 mg\/mL (2 Vials)\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t23666 &#8211; Hampton, VA\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"api-response\">\n<div class=\"coupon\">\n<div class=\"logo\">\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.singlecare.com\/content\/images\/pharmacy\/logo-color-kroger.svg\" alt=\"Kroger Pharmacy\"\/>\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"coupon\">\n<div class=\"logo\">\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.singlecare.com\/content\/images\/pharmacy\/logo-color-harristeeter.svg\" alt=\"Harris Teeter Pharmacy\"\/>\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\t\t\tSee Testosterone Cypionate prices at all pharmacies\n\t\t<\/p><\/div>\n<h2 id=\"how-much-does-testosterone-cost-with-insurance\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How much does testosterone cost with insurance?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Testosterone is Tier 2 on insurance plan formularies or drug lists, which means that it has a moderate copayment. But the way testosterone is categorized by insurance providers will vary based on whether you\u2019re asking for a brand-name or a generic drug, the type of testosterone you\u2019re asking for, and the specific criteria of the insurance plan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the cost with insurance varies from one company to another, testosterone therapy typically costs between $10 and $30 per month, according to Dr. Khoshaba. These costs usually come in the form of testosterone copayments or coinsurance fees. \u201cGels and patches can be much pricier\u2014even with insurance, they might run over $100 a month depending on the brand and your plan\u2019s copay structure,\u201d she says.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-much-does-testosterone-cost-without-insurance\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How much does testosterone cost without insurance?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Without insurance, testosterone can be pricey for some, with an average cost of<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">$100 to $450 per month<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. As with insurance, how much you\u2019ll pay depends on whether you\u2019re buying a generic or brand version and what form of testosterone you\u2019re looking to purchase.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, the out-of-pocket costs for<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">testosterone cypionate<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the generic version of Depo-Testosterone, are about $112 for two 1 ML of 200 MG\/ML vials. Testosterone pills, which are prescribed less often than testosterone injections, can cost an average price of around $1000 to $2000 per month without insurance. Testosterone gels and creams cost between $400 and $1000 per month, and patches average about $800 per month.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIf you\u2019re paying out of pocket because it\u2019s not covered, those prices can jump quite a bit, so checking your plan\u2019s drug list (called a formulary) is worth doing before you fill your prescription,\u201d Dr. Khoshaba recommends.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"ways-to-save-on-testosterone\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ways to save on testosterone<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although most insurance companies will cover your testosterone prescription, you might still find it difficult to pay for it. Luckily, there are different savings options that may be available.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"singlecare-coupons\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> coupons<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> coupons<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can help you save on testosterone when you buy it without insurance. For example, while<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">testosterone cypionate<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> costs $112 for two vials, with a  coupon, you can pay as low as $35.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"patient-assistance-programs\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Patient assistance programs<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some pharmaceutical companies offer patient assistance programs (PAPs) for people who can\u2019t afford their medications. These programs may provide testosterone for free or at a reduced cost if you meet certain income or insurance requirements. Ask your provider or pharmacist if there\u2019s a program for your specific testosterone product.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"talk-to-your-healthcare-provider-about-alternatives\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Talk to your healthcare provider about alternatives<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While there aren\u2019t other medications that can be used as alternatives to testosterone, if the type that you are interested in isn\u2019t covered, you can ask your healthcare provider about switching to a different type\u2014for example, trying a gel or patch instead of an injection. You can also inquire about coverage for a generic versus a brand-name version of testosterone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><svg style=\"display:none\">\n  <g id=\"facebook\">\n    <rect width=\"32\"
