Testosterone boosters are over-the-counter supplements that may modestly support natural production; TRT is prescription testosterone that directly restores your levels under physician supervision. Boosters rarely fix clinically low testosterone — TRT does.
Testosterone boosters
Herbal/vitamin supplements (fenugreek, zinc, D-aspartic acid). Evidence is weak and effects are small, mostly helping men with a specific deficiency.
