Abstract
Low male testosterone levels impact multiple organ systems. Low testosterone impacts men's health with physiologic effects on cognition, muscle mass and strength, bone density, metabolic function, and mood. Differential diagnosis is based on history, physical exam, clinical symptoms, and testosterone levels. The medical management of low testosterone consists of replacement therapy and associated symptom management.
