ABSTRACT
Testis is the male gonad with the main functions of secreting androgens and producing sperm. Testicular aging can induce sexual and reproductive dysfunctions and a series of systemic symptoms, which not only seriously affect the life quality of elderly and middle-aged men but are also closely related to the development and progression of chronic diseases, such as vascular and metabolic disorders. This review focuses on the concept, clinical manifestations, pathogenesis, evaluation methods and intervention strategies of testicular aging, as well as the prospects for its future research directions, aiming to help clinicians gain a deeper insight into and attach more importance to this condition, so as to improve its prevention and treatment.
