Letter to Editor: Mental health after orchiectomy: Systematic review and strategic management.

This letter to the editor addresses the article 'Mental Health After Orchiectomy: Systematic Review and Strategic Management' by Shokaier et al, which reviews the psychological impacts of orchiectomy, including depression, anxiety, and reduced quality of life. The letter acknowledges the importance of the review but highlights gaps in the study, such as the lack of exploration into how cultural and socioeconomic factors influence mental health outcomes. It also points out the variability introduced by different psychological assessment tools used in the studies, which may limit the robustness of the conclusions. The letter suggests integrating artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze large datasets on post-orchiectomy mental health, proposing that AI-driven models could identify risk factors more precisely and offer personalized interventions. Additionally, the letter calls for expanding research to include a longitudinal perspective to understand the long-term psychological effects of orchiectomy. The author commends the original work while urging further studies to address these gaps, thereby advancing the understanding and management of post-orchiectomy mental health.
