As someone suffering from secondary hypogonadism, I know from first hand experience that males with hormonal disorders are by and large completely ignored by the NHS. With hypogonadism, they seem to have an unofficial policy of refusing to diagnose or treat the condition, which if left untreated completely destroys your quality of life, and puts you at high risk of developing osteoporosis and other debilitating conditions as you get older too.

It is about time the looked at your basic hormones and levels instead of that will do as in the end will save money and lives as someone that has Fibromyalgia type problems and now trying a female pill estrogen/progesterone which is a more natural type(zoely) and finding it is really helping me as the effect is far more than expected with pains etc this is some thing that is too far ignored by the so called "professionals" along with thyroid.

Going through hell at the moment cant find any one to do the gold standard dynamic testing. I think if NICE took this problem seriously they would save the nhs millions with undiagnosed illnesses

I too have experienced dreadful treatment over the past 5 years, only to find that I have Diabetes Insipidus (allegedly) caused by a head injury. I now take tablets everyday but I had to kick in private health insurance and alot of my own finance to diagnose this condition. I'm still far from 100% though and do not feel that I've been fully tested for all elements of PTHP.

I have come across many cases where damage to the pituitary gland has not been picked up by the treating hospital. It is very important that patients are screened for this as this could have a positive effect on future brain injury treatment and rehabiltation.
I have been in a similar situation
