What should be done if a male has low follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)?
Low follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels in men require treatment through lifestyle adjustments, hormone therapy, or surgery. Specific approaches are as follows:
1. Lifestyle adjustments
If low FSH levels result from excessive stress, prolonged dieting, or extreme physical fatigue, it is important to improve daily habits. Maintain a regular diet, avoid highly stimulating foods, and engage in appropriate exercise for better regulation.
2. Hormone therapy
If external factors lead to recurrent bleeding, possibly causing pituitary infarction and consequently low FSH levels, hormone supplementation is necessary. This may include estrogen, progesterone, thyroid hormones, and others to improve the condition.
3. Surgical treatment
If low FSH levels are caused by pituitary tumors or mammary duct tumors, surgical intervention can be an effective treatment option.
Men with low follicle-stimulating hormone should seek medical evaluation to identify the underlying cause and receive targeted treatment. It is also important to maintain a positive and relaxed mood in daily life.
