Testosterone: A Review for Orthopaedic Surgeons
Abstract
» Testosterone replacement treatment (TRT) and anabolic androgenic steroid (AAS) use is common and possibly increasing.» Diagnosing and treating hypogonadism in men is controversial.» Hypogonadism and the use of AASs seem to have a detrimental effect on the musculoskeletal system. The current literature on TRT and the musculoskeletal system shows an increased risk of tendon injury.» There may be a role for testosterone supplementation in the postoperative period.
