The severity of hypogonadism symptoms and its risk factors among male employees of Tehran University of Medical Sciences.
Objectives: The current study was conducted to examine the severity of hypogonadism symptoms and their risk factors among the male employees of Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TUMS).
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 80 male employees aged 40-60 years, with hypogonadism, at TUMS. The participants were selected through census sampling. The data collection tools included the demographic questionnaire and the Aging Male Symptoms (AMS) questionnaire. The participants first completed the demographic questionnaire and then the AMS questionnaire. SPSS statistical software version 22 (Chicago, IL) was used to analyze the data, and one-way ANOVA tests, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and stepwise multivariate logistic regression were applied.
Results: Based on our findings, the mean overall score of hypogonadism symptoms was 41.71 ± 9.20. Based on Pearson's correlation coefficient results, there was a statistically significant association between the severity of hypogonadism symptoms and age (p < .001). Furthermore, there were significant associations between the economic status, cigarette consumption and hours of sleep and the severity of hypogonadism symptoms (p < .001).
Conclusions: The current study's results showed that certain factors can affect hypogonadism in males. Thus, it is important to reduce the severity of hypogonadism symptoms and to modify the factors related to this phenomenon.
