Broken,
You can just take a few small steps at a time, as Susan said, you don't have to decide to stay married or separate right now. What is important is to get yourself to a safe place physically, as he is showing violence towards you. Even if he is not hitting you and "only" doors right now...this is domestic violence as it is THREATENING violence to keep you in control.
His behavior is irregardless of his taking testosterone pills. Taking these pills will not "cause" someone to suddenly become violent and physically threaten their wife. He is doing this with or without the pills.
Do you have friends or family nearby that you can stay with, until he can seek help for his violent behavior? There is also a hotline that you can call for free, anytime of day or night, is anonymous and confidential, if you need to talk with an understanding person who can talk through your situation: National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1.800.799.SAFE (7233)
