Hypogonadal Correction

Meaning

Hypogonadal Correction is the clinical process of diagnosing and treating a state of hypogonadism, which is characterized by a functional deficiency in the production of sex hormones (androgens or estrogens) by the gonads. This condition results in measurable physiological and psychological symptoms, including low libido, reduced bone mineral density, and decreased muscle mass. The correction aims to restore circulating hormone levels to an optimal, physiological range, thereby alleviating symptoms and mitigating long-term health risks associated with the deficiency.
