Abstract: The article discusses a clinical practice guideline for the diagnosis and management of testosterone deficiency syndrome (TDS) in men also known as late-onset hypogonadism. The guideline has been developed with support from the Canadian Men's Health Foundation. Topics covered include the role of testosterone therapy in TDS associated with alterations in body composition and metabolic issues, a communication plan to increase awareness of TDS, and the controversy over TDS management.

Abstract: Testosterone deficiency in men is a common but often-missed diagnosis. After confirmation of the diagnosis, exclusion of any reversible causes or contraindications to the use of testosterone, replacement therapy may be offered. Methods of replacement include injectable testosterone esters, transdermal testosterone (gels or patches), or oral testosterone in the form of testosterone undecanoate. Men receiving testosterone therapy should be followed according to a standardized monitoring plan; testosterone levels should be assessed 2 to 3 months after therapy is initiated, followed by annual examinations to assess whether symptoms have improved and whether the patient is experiencing adverse events.

Abstract: The percentage of men receiving appropriate management for testosterone deficiency syndrome (TDS) is small in comparison to prevalence estimates. This is despite linkages to cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, diabetes, sexual function, sarcopenia, emotional well-being and the metabolic syndrome. Furthermore, the availability of guidelines has not significantly enhanced the care of TDS patients. A multidisciplinary group of medical experts sought to improve the management of testosterone-deficient patients by Canadian physicians. This report describes their conclusions and defines an algorithm for appropriate TDS management. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
