摘要
睾酮是男性最重要的性激素,对机体的生长、发育、生殖和器官功能的维持起重要作用。睾酮缺乏可以引起许多器官、系统的功能障碍,即所谓的睾酮缺乏综合征(testosterone deficiency syndrome,TDS),TDS是机体衰老引起的临床和生化综合征。目前研究认为,睾酮水平低下与男性健康不良有关。由于不同个体之间,引起临床症状的睾酮阈值存在差异,而睾酮缺乏的症状无特异性,决定了对睾酮补充治疗时机和必要性的争论。
Testosterone,as the most important sex hormone of the male,plays a critical role in growth,development,reproduction,and maintenance of the functions of vital organs.Testosterone deficiency may lead to functional disorders in many organs or systems,which are collectively termed testosterone deficiency syndrome（TDS）.TDS is a clinical and physiochemical syndrome resulted from ageing.It is recognized that the abnormally low level of testosterone is correlated with the male unhealthy status.As for the treatment of TDS,disputes exist over the necessity of testosterone supplement and the time to start the therapy,because the testosterone threshold that induces the clinical symptoms differs among different individuals and the symptoms are non-specific.
