MENT Gel

Product Overview

Alternative Name: MENT Transdermal Gel

Description: MENT is a synthetic androgen that resembles testosterone. MENT binds to androgen receptors with greater binding affinity than testosterone and dihydrotestosterone, the two active endogenous androgens. The higher binding affinity results in higher bioactivity so that the total dose can be reduced compared to the dose of testosterone required for daily use.
