ABSTRACT
Late-onset hypogonadism (LOH) is an age-related testosterone deficiency syndrome. With the increasing aging of society, LOH results in impaired quality of life of middle-aged and elderly men. Although domestic and international guidelines have been issued in recent years, and the management of LOH became more standardized, numerous controversies still remained in the diagnosis of LOH, the benefits of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) and therapeutic targets. Based on comparison of different guidelines, this review focuses on age cut-off , specific signs and symptoms of LOH, diagnostic cut-off level of testosterone, the advantages and disadvantages of TRT treatment, and non-testosterone therapy.
