Androgen Deficiency in the Ageing Male (ADAM), commonly known as late-onset hypogonadism or low testosterone, is a decline in testosterone levels that occurs with age. ADAM can significantly impact a man’s quality of life, leading to debilitating symptoms such as severe fatigue, reduced libido and sexual function, mood changes, muscle loss, and metabolic decline. Our specialist service is dedicated to accurately diagnosing this deficiency and restoring levels for optimal long-term health and wellbeing.

| Treatment Focus | Key Therapies & Protocols |
|---|---|
| Diagnostics | Comprehensive hormonal profiling (Total & Free Testosterone, SHBG, LH/FSH), metabolic panels, and symptom assessment. |
| Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) | Prescription and monitoring of testosterone via injections, gels, patches, or implants, chosen based on patient preference and clinical profile. |
| Metabolic Management | Co-ordination with metabolic health specialists (like Professor Boyages) to address concurrent issues like ADAM-related weight gain and insulin resistance. |
| Monitoring | Strict protocols for regular blood monitoring to manage safety risks (e.g., polycythaemia) and ensure therapeutic levels are maintained. |
Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) requires precision and expert monitoring to maximise benefits and minimise risks. The Kalix approach is defined by its evidence-based, integrated oversight.
While testosterone levels decline with age, ADAM is a medical condition that requires treatment when it causes significant symptoms or negatively impacts health. Our specialists help differentiate normal ageing from clinical deficiency.
When managed by an expert specialist, TRT is safe. The key is the regular, expert monitoring and dose adjustments provided by our Kalix team to manage potential side effects and ensure therapeutic efficacy.
TRT can significantly improve libido and overall energy. However, if erectile dysfunction persists, our specialists co-ordinate seamlessly with our Urologists (like Dr. Ross Calopedos) for advanced functional assessment.
