Treatment for hypogonadism must no be confounded with the treatment of the initial phase of andropause disease
Dihydrotestosterone or Testosterone ?
Testosterone is appropriate for hypogonadism treatment
Testosterone
Its molecular structure confers properties for proteinic synthesis. It is not a sex hormone. It can however be transformed into dihydrotestosterone by an enzyme (5 α réductase) It can also be transformed into female hormone (estradiol) Its use corresponds to the treatment of andropause disease male during the phase of hypogonadism: here testosterone andddihydrotestosterone (which comes from the transformation of testosterone) are not secreted any more in sufficient quantities. The collapse of general structures of the organism is added to sexual problems. To treat hypogonadism testosterone gel is used in application on the skin, testosterone contained in the gel diffuses uninterrupted in the organism. Several pharmaceutical firms market the testosterone gel:
Best product: Gel of Itnogen 2% of the pharmaceutical Kyowa Kirin. This gel, applied to the skin, allows the administration of testosterone by successive doses of 1 milligram of testosterone (+ or - 10 milligrams of gel), according to the indication of the doctor who prescribes a personalized treatment. The treatment is then safely.
Warning
Testosterone treatments are available as gels, creams, patches, pills, tablets and injections under different brands. In the US, there are class actions against pharmaceutical companies that market these products at doses that might be inappropriate.
The eventual problems come from that andropause disease is unknown and ,therefore, its treatment. Testosterone gel in large quantities is anything.
The double-blind studies with standard doses will not be very useful, since each patient requires a unique treatment. One milligram of testosterone is not 10 milligrams.
