Endocrine evaluation of testicular function
Abstract
This article reviews currently available endocrine tests that are used to evaluate adult testicular function. In many patients, all that is needed is a thorough medical history and physical examination with measurement of total testosterone, FSH, and LH levels. For others, various secondary tests are appropriate. The usefulness and pitfalls of these endocrine tests are discussed.
