Low testosterone (hypogonadism)
Persistently low testosterone with symptoms. Diagnosed by labs + symptoms, not by one number.
Overview
Diagnosis requires two morning draws confirming low levels alongside symptoms. Treatment is a decision, not a default.
What we look at
Signals, not guesses.
- Total + free testosterone (two AM draws)
- SHBG, estradiol, prolactin
- CBC, PSA (baseline)
How we approach it
The workflow.
- 01Confirm diagnosis with two labs.
- 02Discuss goals and risks.
- 03Titrate therapy on follow-up — same clinician every time.
