Abstract
The importance of good sexual function for individuals is well recognised. Testosterone is contributory to a healthy sex life for both women and men. The British Society for Sexual Medicine (BSSM) has initiated and led the development of these guidelines for the assessment of testosterone deficiency in both women and men, for use within the UK and beyond. Clinical awareness of the possibility of testosterone deficiency and the impact this may have on an individual's sexual and somatic function and the need to make sufficient enquiry about the sex life of patients attending a broad spectrum of clinical services is emphasised. The management of testosterone deficiency is outlined in detail for both women and men.
