Opis

Over the last few years there has been a substantial increase in the interest not only by the medical profession but also the media in the role of testosterone in health and disease. This interest has been mirrored by a rapid increase in research publications and development of improved modes of delivery of testosterone therapy. The second edition of this successful pocketbook provides clinicians with an update on the management of testosterone deficiency in men, and covers updated management guidelines, a new chapter on testosterone and mortality, and a concluding chapter of helpful case vignettes.

Recenzje

This book gives an excellent overview of male hypogonadism, an underdiagnosed condition which may present to a range of medical specialties. Non-specific symptoms and difficulty in interpretation of the biochemical markers make this book a 'must-have' for any specialist, as well as primary care doctors, who would like to make an initial diagnosis. It provides a comprehensive approach to this complex area, being structured in a very systematic format... Diabetologists, endocrinologists, cardiologists, geriatricians, urologists and psychiatrists will find practical guidance in this book, which is easily read and informative.
