Hypogonadism: What Does It Entail?
Male hypogonadism is a condition in which the body doesn't produce enough testosterone. Testosterone is the hormone that plays a key role in masculine growth and development.
You can be born with male hypogonadism, or it can develop later in life, often from injury or infection. The effects — and what you can do about them — depend on the cause and at what point in your life male hypogonadism occurs. Some types of male hypogonadism can be treated with testosterone replacement therapy.
