Retains nitrogen, salt, potassium, as well as phosphorus in the body, increases necessary health proteins constructive metabolism minimizing catabolism. Early increase of LCD concentrations of testosterone in prepubertal period brings stunned growth as well as epiphyseal closure. Testosterone causes the production of glycoprotein as well as erythrocytes. Due to feedback mechanism it inhibits the pituitary secretion of luteinizing and follicle hormone and causes suppression of spermatogenesis.

In women, Testosterone Enanthate inhibits the pituitary gonadotrophic function, ovarian function, mammary glands, endometrial atrophy.
