Androgens and Reproductive Aging

The subject of androgen treatment in reproductive-aged women and men is attracting increasing interest from specialists in reproduction medicine, endocrinology and primary care providers, as well as from patients and the media. The first book to cover androgen replacement in both genders, this volume addresses reproductive aging, menopause, and the use of androgen supplements to mitigate their effects. The contributors explain androgen production in the healthy male and female and describe the decline of androgen production during aging. They also discuss the benefits and potential side-effects of androgen replacement therapy.
