Abstract:
The effect of testosterone replacement therapy on serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) was investigated in 11 patients with Klinefelter syndrome. Significant increases in serum testosterone level and prostate volume were observed after testosterone replacement therapy. However, serum PSA level did not change after testosterone replacement therapy. It would appear that serum PSA is not influenced by exogenous testosterone in patients with Klinefelter syndrome.
