Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: 4.5 mL (90 mg) of 2% Testosterone MD-LotionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Applied once daily for 7 days by three doses to both axilla (2 x 1.5 mL to one axilla and 1 x 1.5 mL to the other axilla). All study participants are randomized to each of the 4 study treatments.

Applied once daily for 7 days to both axilla (1.5 mL to each axilla). All study participants are randomized to each of the 4 study treatments.
Group III: 3 mL (30 mg) of 1% Testosterone MD-LotionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Applied once daily for 7 days to both axilla (1.5 mL to each axilla). All study participants are randomized to each of the 4 study treatments.
Group IV: 1.5 mL (30 mg) of 2% Testosterone MD-LotionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
