This How to Treat offers current information on the evidence for the effectiveness of lifestyle measures as well as of the risks and benefits of testosterone therapy in men with functional hypogonadism. It aims to ensure GPs are proficient in managing men with organic hypogonadism with testosterone replacement and be aware of different testosterone formulations, as well as of contraindications to testosterone replacement. This How to Treat will also ensure the GP is confident in managing older men who present with (often non-specific) androgen-deficiency like symptoms and lowered serum testosterone in the absence of organic hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular axis pathology (that is, with so called functional hypogonadism).
