Objectives: Adult Male Hypogonadism Screening Diagnosis/Differential Treatment Adverse events & safety monitoring
Slide 5-

Sperm Inhibin Normal Male Reproductive Axis GnRH FSH LH Hypothalamus Pituitary Seminiferous Tubule Leydig Cell Aromatase 5  reductase Estradiol DHT Testes T E
Slide 6-

Diagnosis of Hypogonadism Failure of testes to produce Physiologic levels of testosterone Normal number of spermatozoa Primary = testes failure Secondary = pituitary or hypothalamic failure Dual defects are possible (less likely)
Slide 7-

Treatment of Hypogonadism Depends on the Cause Primary hypogonadism Generally permanent Replace testosterone unless contradindicated Fertility cannot be regained Secondary hypogonadism Distinguish cause Evaluate for other hormone deficiencies first Use testosterone + gonadotropins for fertility

Definition of Androgen Deficiency (AD) Consistently low testosterone Associated signs/symptoms Evidence based review of literature Data is weak at best
Slide 10-

Don’t Screen Every Man for Low T Don’t look for low T in men seeking care for unrelated reasons Does not meet any criteria for general screening No trials of efficacy or cost-effectiveness Mortality impact of untreated low T unknown
Slide 11-

Who to Screen for AD Men who ask about it based on symptoms Case finding in men with high prevalence clinical disorders Even in these groups, data on risk/benefits of T replacement is unavailable-limited
Slide 12-

**Adapted from Morley JE, et al. Validation of a screening questionnaire for androgen deficiency in aging males. Metabolism. 2000;49(9):1239-1242. The ADAM Questionnaire
Slide 13-

Symptoms/Signs of AD in Men Incomplete sexual development, eunuchoidism  Sexual desire & activity  Spontaneous erections Breast discomfort, gynecomastia  Body hair (axillary & pubic),  shaving Very small or shrinking testes (esp < 5 ml) Inability to father children, low/zero sperm counts  Height, low-trauma fracture, low BMD  Muscle bulk & strength Hot flushes, sweats
Slide 14-

Less Specific Symptoms/Signs of AD  energy, motivation, initiative, aggressiveness, self-confidence Feeling sad or blue, depressed mood, dysthymia Poor concentration and memory Sleep disturbance, increased sleepiness Mild anemia Normochromic, normocytic, in the female range Increased body fat, BMI Diminished physical or work performance
Slide 15-

Conditions with a High Prevalence of Low T (Screening Suggested) Sellar mass, radiation to sella, other sellar disease On meds that affect T production or metabolism Glucocorticoids, ketoconazole, opioids HIV-associated weight loss ESRD and maintainence hemodialysis Moderate to severe COPD Osteoporosis or low trauma fracture (esp if young) Type 2 diabetes mellitus Infertility
Slide 16-

Relevant Medical History Puberty and sexual development Past/present major illnesses Past/present nutritional deficiency All prescription & nonprescription drugs Relationship problems Sexual problems Major life events Related family history Recent changes in body (breasts) Testicle problems
Slide 17-

Slide 18-

Physical Exam Amount of body hair Breast exam for enlargement/tenderness Size and consistency of testicles Size of the penis Signs of severe & prolonged AD Loss of body hair Reduced muscle bulk and strength Osteoporosis Smaller testicles

Guidelines on Screening Initial screen = morning total testosterone Levels are highest in the morning Normal T is generally 300-1000 ng/dl Confirmation = repeat morning total T Free or bioavailable T in some Do not screen during acute or subacute illness Illness, malnutrition, and certain medications may temporarily lower testosterone
Slide 21-

History and Physical (Symptoms and Signs) Exclude reversible illness, drugs, nutritional deficiency Do you suspect altered SHBG? Low T Morning Total T Normal T, LH+FSH Not Hypogonadism Follow up Normal T Repeat T Check LH+FSH If altered SHBG Use free or bio T Semen analysis if fertility issue
Slide 22-

Testosterone Circulates Mostly Bound to Sex Hormone Binding Globulin What lowers SHBG Moderate obesity Nephrotic syndrome Hypothyroidism Use of Glucocorticoids Progestins Androgenic steroids What raises SHBG Aging Hepatic cirrhosis Hyperthyroidism Anticonvulsants Estrogens HIV infection
Slide 23-

Confirmed low T (Total < 300 ng/dl) OR Free or Bio T < normal (Free T <5 ng/dl) Low T Low or normal LH+FSH Prolactin, iron sats Other pituitary hormones Low T High LH+FSH Karyotype Klinefelter Syndrome Other Testicular Insult Secondary Hypogonadism Primary Hypogonadism MRI in certain cases

Case 52 y/o male with HTN asks for Viagra after 2 years of low libido BP 150/99 Slight gynecomastia, nl GU exam T low, FSH &LH low, Prolactin very high What is the best next step?
Slide 26-

Best next step? A) Prescribe Viagra B) Testosterone replacement C) MRI pituitary D) Neurosurgery consult

Slide 28-

When Should You Get a Pituitary MRI? Severe secondary hypogonadism T <150 ng/dl Symptoms/signs of tumor mass HA, visual impairment, visual field defect Persistent hyperprolactinemia Panhypopituitarism Cost-effectiveness is unknown Don’t bother with a CT
Slide 29-

Slide 30-

Should You Get a DXA? Recommend DXA in men with Severe androgen deficiency Low trauma fracture Cost-effectiveness is unknown
Slide 31-

Goals of Testosterone Therapy Improve/maintain secondary sexual characteristics Improve libido and erections Increase energy and well-being Improve muscle mass and strength Improve bone mineral density
Slide 32-

Who Should be Treated with T? Men with low T & signs/symptoms of AD Men with low testosterone & low libido Men with low testosterone & erectile dysfunction After evaluation of underlying causes of ED And consideration of other treatment for ED
Slide 33-

Who Else Should be Treated with T? Men with low testosterone, HIV infection & weight loss Short-term treatment For weight-maintenance, lean body mass, & muscle strength Men with low testosterone & taking high dose glucocorticoids Short-term treatment For lean body mass and bone mineral density
Slide 34-

What About Older Men? Recommend against offering T to all older men with low T Treat men with consistently low T and clinically significant symptoms After explicit discussion of pros and cons Task force disagreed on T level below which T should be offered to older men with symptoms Depends on the severity of symptoms Some T<300 Some T<200
Slide 35-

Case 75 y/o male had a lower thoracic vertebral fracture after falling on a wet floor Non-smoker, non-drinker, 1 glass milk/day Poor energy Libido and erections “not what they used to be” T low x 2, LH and FSH “normal” Anemic, normal calcium & phos DXA T-score at L-spine -2.6, at femur -1.9 What is the best treatment course?
Slide 36-

Contraindications to Testosterone Therapy Breast or prostate cancer Lump/hardness on prostate exam by DRE PSA >3 ng/ml that has not been evaluated for prostate cancer Severe untreated BPH (AUA/IPSS >19) Erythrocytosis (hematocrit >50%) Hyperviscosity Untreated obstructive sleep apnea Severe heart failure (class III or IV)
Slide 42-

Testosterone for the Following Reasons May be Harmful To improve strength/athletic performance For physical appearance To prevent aging
Slide 43-

How Do You Give Testosterone? Start at standard dose Check levels Therapeutic target Serum testosterone in mid-normal range for healthy, young men Target in older men Considerable disagreement among experts Total T in the lower part of the normal range for younger men 400-500 ng/dl
Slide 44-

Nongenital Transdermal Patch Mimics normal diurnal rhythm Less increase in hemoglobin than IM shots Start at 1-2 x 5 mg nightly to the skin of the back, thigh, or upper arm Away from pressure areas Some men need 2 patches Skin irritation/redness/rashes
