Androgen Deficiency Assessment

Meaning

Androgen Deficiency Assessment is the clinical and biochemical evaluation utilized to ascertain insufficient levels of androgens, primarily testosterone, in a patient. This comprehensive process integrates the reporting of specific symptoms, findings from a thorough physical examination, and objective laboratory quantification of circulating hormone levels. It serves as the definitive diagnostic pathway for identifying conditions such as male hypogonadism or significant androgen decline in women. Accurate assessment is crucial for formulating an effective, personalized hormonal intervention strategy.
