Androgen Optimization

Meaning

Androgen optimization is a clinical strategy focused on restoring or maintaining circulating androgen levels, primarily testosterone and its metabolites, within a functional and individualized physiological range to alleviate symptoms of deficiency and promote well-being. This approach moves beyond simply achieving a “normal” lab value, instead targeting the specific level at which a patient experiences maximum symptomatic relief and functional improvement. It is a core component of precision endocrinology for both men and women experiencing hormonal decline.
