About Hypogonadism
Male hypogonadism, also known as "Low T", refers to a condition in which the body does not produce a sufficient level of testosterone, an important hormone. You can be born with male hypogonadism, or it can develop later in life from injury or infection. The effects — and what you can do about them — depend on the cause and at what point in life male hypogonadism occurs. Some types of male hypogonadism can be treated with testosterone replacement therapy.1 Low T is often misdiagnosed as a host of other conditions, including depression and erectile dysfunction. A diagnosis of hypogonadism depend on an assessment of symptoms by a healthcare professional, and the results of blood tests that measure testosterone levels. Current treatment guidelines focus on the restoration of the physiological testosterone level through the use of exogenous testosterone preparations.2
