Men's health is a unique field that requires a multi-disciplinary approach to appropriately treat the full spectrum of men's health needs. Given that interest in men's health is relatively new, the definition of a men's health clinic continues to evolve. Originally conceived as testosterone replacement centers, men's health clinics are increasingly understood to encompass male endocrine, surgical, urologic, physical performance, and psychological issues. As interest in men's health continues to grow, it is important to focus on the field's future, including pharmacies, telemedicine, and the diffusion of healthcare.
男性健康是一个独特的领域,需要采用多学科方法来妥善满足男性全方位的健康需求。鉴于对男性健康的关注相对较新,男性健康诊所的定义仍在不断演变。男性健康诊所最初被设想为睾酮替代中心,如今人们越来越认识到它涵盖男性内分泌、外科、泌尿科、身体机能以及心理等方面的问题。随着对男性健康的关注持续增加,关注该领域的未来发展很重要,包括药房、远程医疗以及医疗保健的普及。
