title: Low testosterone in older men: a discussion and review of literature on health consequences of hypogonadism in the aging male.
abstract: We have learned a great deal about testosterone over a long period of time and are familiar with its role in sexual function, libido, muscle strength/tone, erythropoiesis, and bone mineral density. What we are less familiar with are the consequences of low testosterone-hypogonadism-as it relates to the Metabolic Syndrome, and the strong association with diabetes and cardiovascular disease. It is clear that many medical researchers have taken a strong interest and are finding significant data in hypogonadism as it affects certain comorbid conditions.
