Testosterone Substitution Efficacy

Meaning

Testosterone Substitution Efficacy is the clinical metric used to evaluate the effectiveness of exogenous testosterone administration in achieving therapeutic goals for individuals diagnosed with testosterone deficiency, also known as hypogonadism. This efficacy is measured by the degree to which treatment restores serum testosterone levels to a physiological range, resolves the patient’s deficiency symptoms, and improves key clinical endpoints like bone mineral density and sexual function. High efficacy confirms the appropriate diagnosis and the optimal choice and dosing of the substitution therapy.
