Various symptoms are typical of severe testosterone deficiency in young men; in aging men, however, these symptoms are nonspecific and overlap with symptoms of other prevalent disorders. A new study offers evidence-based criteria for the identification of late-onset hypogonadism in the general population on the basis of an association between symptoms and a low testosterone level.
各种症状是年轻男性严重睾酮缺乏的典型表现；然而，在老年男性中，这些症状是非特异性的，与其他常见疾病的症状相重叠。一项新的研究基于症状与低睾酮水平之间的关联，为一般人群中迟发性性腺功能减退症的识别提供了基于证据的标准。
