Answer:

Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) injections are much safer to use with some mild side effects to treat issues of testicular atrophy. Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) injections would increase blood flow and enable the testes' produce testosterone, reduce the shrinkage of the testicles and it also aids in the production of sperm cells which has been initially impaired due to testicular atrophy.

Explanation:

Anabolic steroid is a drug that plays the role of testosterone.

Testicular atrophy is the shrinkage of the testicles caused by old age or infections. Once it occurs, it lowers the production of testosterone and sperm cells.

Trenbolone increases muscle building, aids lean fat deposition, reduces the production of testosterone, and could also lead to testicular atrophy.
