No girls are allowed to take this medication it is only for guys, reason being that is it a testosterone patch for testosterone defiency.
Androderm®(testosterone transdermal system)
Androderm is a convenient, once-daily skin patch, called a transdermal delivery system. The patch delivers consistent, controlled concentrations of testosterone through the skin, and it's proven to be effective. In clinical studies, Androderm helped most men achieve normal testosterone levels, and it's convenient. Unlike scrotal patches, Androderm is applied to other body areas.
Testosterone deficiency (or hypogonadism) is a condition in which the testes are unable to produce enough testosterone to fulfill the body's needs. Testosterone deficiency has many possible causes, including genetic abnormalities, injury to the testes, and certain medications. Normal aging also may play a role in the progressive decline of testosterone levels.

No, girls can absolutely not take it! Androderm is a transdermal patch that delivers testosterone through the skin. Now don't get me wrong, the levels are low, but the last thing you want is to use it continuously and start getting virilization, which is the increase in male characteristics such as hair growth and deepening of voice.
As for a male, it is safe to take for the most part but all prescriptions should be done through a doctor and not on line.

NO- girls are not supposed to take it. Androderm patch is a testosterone patch used to treat male hypogonadism - a condition in which the body produces insufficient levels of testosterone. A female who will use it may have male-like changes like unusual hair growth or increased acne. It ca cause birth defects in pregnant women.
