Testosterone is a naturally occurring hormone found in both men and women, but it is also used in prescription medications for hormone therapy and in some over-the-counter supplements. It is listed on California's Proposition 65 because the state's Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) has determined that it can cause cancer based on scientific evidence. This does not mean that normal levels of testosterone in the body are dangerous, but that high or prolonged exposure from external sources, such as certain medical treatments or unregulated products, may increase cancer risk. The listing is meant to inform consumers so they can make informed choices about products containing this substance. For more details, see the California OEHHA Proposition 65 List at https://oehha.ca.gov/proposition-65/proposition-65-list.
