## TL;DR

This paper reviews three new oral testosterone therapies for treating male hypogonadism, comparing their effectiveness, safety, and practical use.

## Contribution

The paper provides a comparative analysis of three novel oral testosterone therapies, emphasizing their clinical utility and treatment flexibility.

## Key findings

- All three therapies restored eugonadal testosterone levels in 80–88% of patients.
- Shared risks include hypertension, polycythemia, and lipid changes.
- Dosing regimens and insurance coverage influence treatment choice and adherence.

## Abstract

Symptomatic male hypogonadism, defined by low serum testosterone with associated clinical symptoms, is increasingly treated with testosterone replacement therapy. Traditional oral formulations were limited by hepatotoxicity and poor bioavailability, leading to reliance on injectable and transdermal routes. Recent advances in oral testosterone undecanoate formulations have introduced safer and more effective options. This review compares Jatenzo, Tlando, and Kyzatrex, highlighting their pharmacology, efficacy, safety, and clinical utility. Clinical trial data demonstrate restoration of eugonadal testosterone levels in most patients (80–88%), with shared risks including hypertension, polycythemia, and lipid changes. Differences in dosing regimens, titration requirements, and insurance coverage influence choice of therapy and patient adherence. Kyzatrex offers flexible titration and self-pay access, Tlando provides a fixed-dose regimen, and Jatenzo combines titratability with established clinical data. Collectively, these agents expand the therapeutic landscape of hypogonadism, offering effective, non-invasive alternatives that support individualized treatment strategies.
