    Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) for andropause is debated, especially in men with normal levels. Careful monitoring is crucial due to potential side effects like rising prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels.

    Area of Science:

    • Endocrinology
    • Men's Health
    • Urology

    Background:

    • Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is used for hypogonadism.
    • Its use for andropause in middle-aged men, irrespective of baseline testosterone, remains controversial.
    • Potential TRT side effects include prostate issues.

    Observation:

    • A middle-aged man presented with symptoms of andropause.
    • He was undergoing TRT.
    • His prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels began to rise.

    Findings:

    • The case highlights a potential association between TRT and increasing PSA in men with andropause.
    • This underscores the importance of vigilant monitoring during TRT.

    Implications:

    • This case emphasizes the need for careful patient selection and monitoring for men undergoing TRT for andropause.
    • Further research may clarify the risks and benefits of TRT in this population.
    • Close surveillance, including PSA testing, is essential to detect adverse effects early.
