Depo testosterone shots?

my fiance is taking testosterone shots because during puberty he basically never hit it. so hes been taking them for years now and says hes perfectly normal. I dont wanna ask him much about it because he gets upset. heres a few questions if anyone knows them that would be great!

-does he have to always take them?
-can i still get pregnant?
-what happens if he stopped takin them?
-is this at all normal?
Answer:
1. maybe not always but for a long time. there are also other pharmaceutical forms of testosterone.
2. yes
3. maybe some hormone disbalance. or your fiance will transformed into a girl (joke).
4. yes, its rather typically case
This is a naturally occuring issue really but could also be caused from some sort of intersex condition. He will always be on testosterone injections and will suffer a hormone imbalance if he stops. (Side effects could include fat redistribution to his hips and the acquisition of man boobs among other things.) Yes, you can absolutely get pregnant. He is as much a guy as anyone else - maybe more so because he's adding the perfect amount of testosterone. The endocrinologist or doctor may be able to give you more info with his consent.
