Testosterone therapy has been reported to be useful in the treatment of
hypogonadism and partial androgen deficiency of the aging male (PADAM)
syndrome. Testosterone administration is needed in order to maintain
secondary sexual characteristics, muscle mass, bone mineral density,
cognitive function and sexual drive. Newer testosterone-containing
compounds, particularly gel preparations, are known to produce more
stable circulating testosterone levels than im-administered drugs, with
scarce side-effects and good patient compliance. All patients treated
with testosterone must undergo a careful follow-up to prevent the
development of the major side effects, such as sleep-apnea,
erythrocytosis, cardiovascular diseases and the alterations of hepatic
function and plasma lipid concentrations.
