Androgen Deficiency Syndrome Monitoring

Meaning

Androgen Deficiency Syndrome Monitoring describes the clinical process of systematically tracking biochemical markers and evaluating symptomology in individuals diagnosed with or undergoing treatment for low androgen levels. This comprehensive surveillance is critical for assessing the efficacy and safety of any therapeutic intervention, such as testosterone replacement therapy. It involves regular blood tests to measure total and free testosterone, hematocrit, prostate-specific antigen, and other relevant parameters. Effective monitoring ensures that androgen levels are restored to a healthy, physiological range while mitigating potential cardiovascular and hematological risks.
