Androgen Deficiency in The Adult Male - Causes, Diagnosis and Treatment (Hardcover)

Just what is the andropause? Although acceptance of the andropause concept by the medical community is growing, it is still a hotly debated issue. But as a busy clinician you have patients to treat and you need information. So where can you find the information you need to understand, diagnose, and treat this condition? A comprehensive, detailed clinical resource, Androgen Deficiency in the Adult Male: Causes, Diagnosis, and Treatment distills the knowledge acquired by author Malcolm Carruthers in his 20 years of research and clinical experience in diagnosing and treating the andropause.

Carruthers documents the history of testosterone treatment from antiquity to the awarding of the Nobel Prize Adolf Butenandt and Leopold Ruzicka for synthesizing testosterone and patenting its production some 4,000 years later. He discusses the causes of androgen deficiency, the male menopause or andropause, and its differential diagnosis. The text includes reviews of the literature in each section and a fund of bibliographic references gleaned from the author's years of research in this field. This combination of features makes Androgen Deficiency and the Aging Male: Causes, Diagnosis and Treatment a technically thorough clinical guide, a complete and detailed reference volume, and a cohesive and readable textbook.
