Testosterone replacement options: Guidelines Take New Look at Management of Hypogonadism in Men

Updated guidelines on diagnosis and treatment of hypogonadism in men reflect advances in treatment and more robust data about the short-term benefits of testosterone replacement therapy.
The guidelines, issued by the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists (AACE), also urge additional research into the long-term use of the therapy and its possible effects on the risks of cancer and cardiovascular disease.
“Concern about long-term safety and efficacy remains an issue,” said Dr. Steven M. Petak, chair of the guidelines revision committee.
“Perhaps these new guidelines will stimulate some additional research into these issues,” said Dr. Petak, an endocrinologist at the Texas Institute for Reproductive Medicine and Endocrinology, Houston.
