Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine. 14th Edition. McGraw-Hill Book Company. New York Secondary Hypogonadism Hypothalamic-pituitary pituitary failure to stimulate testicular testosterone production Due to gonadotropin or GnRH deficiency (idiopathic or Kallman syndrome), pituitary- hypothalamic injury from tumors, trauma, or radiation Hyperprolactinemia GnRH=Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone.

5 TESTOSTERONE MEASUREMENTS Total testosterone- accurate methodology but varies with SHBG levels. Bioavailable T- accurate methodology and avoids variations in SHBG binding Free T by equilibrium dialysis- accurate but time consuming and expensive CIRCADIAN RHYTHMICITY OF TESTOSTERONE SECRETION In young men testosterone levels are highest in the early morning and drop significantly in the late afternoon. This rhythmicity is attenuated in older men. Serum levels of testosterone have frequent spikes and nadirs. To diagnose hypogonadism in younger men early morning samples are needed. In older men the time of day of sampling is not important. Measurement of Serum Testosterone Levels Circulation Variation in Serum Testosterone in Normal Males Serum Testosterone (ng/dl) Young (23-28 yrs) Clock Time (hours) Bremner WJ et al. J Clin Endocrinol Metab.1983;56: Old (58-82 yrs)
6 Diagnostic Testosterone Testing Additional Tests: LH To ascertain whether cause is primary or secondary Serum prolactin High prolactin levels may suggest presence of pituitary tumor Tenover JL. Endocrinol Metab Clin North Am. 1998;27: LABORATORY TESTS Total T, LH, Prolactin- morning specimen Total T <200 ng/dl is definitely abnormal- if LH is not elevated obtain MRI of pituitary/hypothalamus Total T ng/dl /dl- check bioavailable T or free T by equilibrium dialysis. MRI if LH is not elevated or prolactin is increased Gonadal Effects of Aging Decline in testosterone production Decreased testosterone levels Increased SHBG levels Decreased free T levels Tenover JL. Endocrinol Metab Clin North Am. 1998;27:
7 DECLINING TESTOSTERONE LEVELS WITH AGING Results from a dual defect in Leydig cell function and the hypothalamic-pituitary pituitary axis. Peripheral- decreased Leydig cell number and response to HCG Central- in older men the LH pulses are diminished. The central defect lies at the level of the hypothalamus as demonstrated by the normal pituitary response to gonadotropin releasing hormone administration. LH and Prolactin are usually normal DECLINING TESTOSTERONE LEVELS WITH AGING Testosterone levels in studies decrease by approximately 1-1.5% 1.5% per year in men over 40 years of age 1.
