title: Topical testosterone therapy for penile growth.
abstract: Three prepubertal males were treated with daily applications to the penis of 5 per cen topical testosterone cream. Penile growth occurred in all 3 patients. Serum testosterone values rose dramatically in 2 of the patients. Topical testosterone probably causes penile growth via its systemic action, not merely through its local effect.
