A member asked:

In case of testosterone deficit for young male, does doctors usually prescribe hcg and clomid (clomiphene) instead of testo supplementation ? what you think ?

TESTOSTERONE: It depends on the cause of the low t. Is this is an endocrinologic issue or loss of testicular tissue.

It depends....: It depends why a young man has testosterone deficiency. There are certain pituitary conditions that lead to testosterone deficiency. Testicular varicose veins (varicocele) can also lead to low testosterone production. The idea is to find out where the problem lies before discussing which treatments are best. They all have their pros and cons.
