Registry summary
The purpose of this study is to increase the functional level of the elderly to thereby reduce fall risk, improve motor skills, and increase psychological well-being, as well as to assess whether the restoration of a normal testosterone level contributes to a faster recovery. The effect of testosterone is investigated as measured by physical and mental functional capacity, including cognition, in hypogonadal elderly men with a significant loss of function. The study is aimed at participants who are too weak to participate in the progressive strength training.
