Gonadal Insufficiency Correction

Meaning

Gonadal Insufficiency Correction is the clinical strategy employed to address the sub-optimal function of the gonads—the testes in males and ovaries in females—resulting in deficient production of sex steroids, such as testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone. This insufficiency can manifest as hypogonadism, leading to compromised vitality, diminished bone density, sexual dysfunction, and mood disturbances. The correction aims to restore sex hormone levels to a youthful, functional range, thereby reversing symptoms and supporting long-term health and quality of life. This requires precise diagnostic evaluation of the entire Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Gonadal (HPG) axis.
