A member asked:

What is the laboratory criterion for male hypergonadism? what are the dangers, if not tumor? what are the treatments?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Why do you ask?: The diagnosis is best made clinically (erections / ejaculation / sperms) with labs (testosterone, gonadotropins) to point the direction for the workup to find the cause. There are guys with lifelong hypogonadism (some xxy's, others) who prefer it (less acne, stink, belligerence, discomfort), but one serious concern is bone loss (osteoporosis) later in life. If this is you, your doctor's a guide.
