Hypogonadism
Hypogonadism - Screening Your Patients
Men who believe they may be suffering from low testosterone or hypogonadism can pre-screen themselves for hypogonadism with the Androgen Deficiency in Aging Men (ADAM) questionnaire. The ADAM questionnaire consists of 10 simple questions that will help your patient to determine if he has symptoms of hypogonadism.
