Hypogonadism is a condition where the body produces lower-than-normal levels of testosterone, the primary male hormone responsible for sexual function, muscle mass, fertility, and overall well-being. It may be caused by issues in the testes (primary hypogonadism) or hormonal imbalance in the brain (secondary hypogonadism). Dr. Premkumar K, a leading Uro-Oncologist and Reconstructive Urologist, offers comprehensive evaluation and evidence-based treatment to restore hormonal balance and improve quality of life.
Common Causes – Aging, chronic illnesses, obesity, testicular injury, genetic disorders, pituitary dysfunction, long-term medication use, and lifestyle factors.
Symptoms – Low energy, reduced libido, erectile dysfunction, difficulty building muscle, mood changes, infertility, reduced beard growth, weight gain, and decreased bone strength.
Diagnosis – Blood tests for testosterone and other hormones, semen analysis (if fertility is affected), ultrasound, and pituitary evaluation to differentiate between primary and secondary hypogonadism.
Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) – Delivered via injections, skin gels, patches, or long-acting implants to safely restore healthy hormone levels and improve sexual function, mood, and strength.
Fertility-Focused Treatment – For patients wishing to conceive, hormone-stimulating medications (HCG, FSH) are used instead of testosterone to preserve or increase sperm production.
Lifestyle & Medical Management – Weight reduction, sleep improvement, exercise plans, and treatment of underlying conditions such as diabetes or thyroid imbalance.
Monitoring & Safety – Regular follow-ups to assess hormone levels, prostate health, blood parameters, and treatment response ensure long-term safety and effectiveness.
With a personalized and evidence-based approach, Dr. Premkumar K ensures accurate diagnosis and safe, effective treatment options for men with hypogonadism. The goal is to restore hormonal balance, improve energy, enhance sexual health, and boost overall wellness.
