Hypogonadism for the Specialist | Module Overview
Testosterone deficiency is an increasingly common problem with an aging and increasingly overweight population. This together with the increasing focus on the treatment of erectile dysfunction has seen an increase in the prescription of testosterone treatment. Increasingly patients are referred from primary care to a variety of specialists including urologists, diabetologists and endocrinologists.
The clinical cases presented within this module are tailored specifically for Specialist Doctors, and are based around the diagnostic synthesis, investigation and management of testosterone deficiency.
Once you complete the module - and achieve the minimum pass rate of 60% - you'll be awarded with a downloadable 1 hour CPD Certificate, which you can print or upload to your CPD Portfolio.
Aims & Objectives
This module is composed of 10 assessment questions covering aspects of diagnosis of hypogonadism, its investigation and treatment, and treatment of erectile dysfunction. On successful completion of the module, you will gain:
Improved understanding of the causes of testosterone deficiency in males
Better understanding of the approach to the investigation of subjects presenting with testosterone deficiency
Increased awareness as to the treatment options available to such patients
