Harvard Testosterone Therapy and Sexual Dysfunction February 17-18, 2023
videos+slides
Testosterone therapy has been controversial since it first became available in the 1930s. Today, we know that not only do men with testosterone deficiency suffer from a variety of troubling sexual and non-sexual symptoms, but also that there are important health risks associated with untreated testosterone deficiency, including obesity, decreased bone mineral density and increased mortality. We now have level 1 evidence that testosterone therapy provides valuable benefits to men and women, and numerous medical societies have published guidelines endorsing the use of testosterone therapy.
Yet there remains a poor knowledge base among physicians and considerable misunderstanding of testosterone therapy, its benefits and its risks! There is confusion as to who is a candidate, how to make the diagnosis, how to treat and what are the actual risks, including cardiovascular and prostate cancer.
I have been researching and publishing on this topic for over 40 years, while gaining extensive clinical experience in my medical practice as the founder of the first comprehensive men’s health center in the US. My work has helped transform our understanding of the relationship between testosterone and prostate cancer, and it has been gratifying to see the field evolve as ideas once considered “dangerous” have now become mainstream as the implications of that research have been widely accepted.
I am delighted to be able to offer this course, addressing not only testosterone issues but also a number of sexual health problems. These are common issues encountered by healthcare providers treating men and women every day. Even though sexual complaints are common, this is often a daunting and mysterious area for most providers. The superb faculty and I will provide a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to these issues, combined with pearls from clinical experience, so that you will be able to return to your practice with improved comfort and confidence to effectively help your patients with testosterone deficiency and other sexual concerns.
