Male hypogonadism is a condition characterized by insufficient production of the hormone testosterone in the body. Testosterone plays a crucial role as the primary male sex hormone, and its presence is vital for the development and growth of men during puberty.
The main types of male hypogonadism include Klinefelter syndrome, Kallmann syndrome, pituitary disorders, and others. Klinefelter syndrome is a hereditary disorder that manifests in boys when they have an extra copy of the X chromosome at birth. Treatment for male hypogonadism often involves testosterone therapy delivered through various methods such as topical gels, injectables, transdermal patches, and gonadotropin-releasing hormone therapy.

The male hypogonadism market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.75 billion in 2024 to $3.99 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to aging population, awareness and diagnosis, lifestyle factors, chronic illnesses, treatment seeking behavior.
The male hypogonadism market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.08 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%.

The rising infertility rates are projected to drive growth in the male hypogonadism market in the coming years. Infertility is a condition that affects the male or female reproductive system, defined as the inability to conceive after 12 months or more of regular, unprotected sexual intercourse. Male hypogonadism, which can result in reduced sperm production and infertility, is one potential cause of male infertility. Consequently, the increasing prevalence of male infertility is expected to boost the male hypogonadism market. For instance, in February 2024, the Office for National Statistics, a UK-based government department, reported that the total fertility rate (TFR) in 2022 fell to 1.49 children per woman, down from 1.55 in 2021. Thus, the rising infertility rate is significantly contributing to the growth of the male hypogonadism market.
The rising prevalence of chronic diseases is anticipated to significantly drive the growth of the male hypogonadism market in the future. Chronic diseases are defined as conditions that last for a year or longer and require ongoing medical care, often limiting daily activities or both. Conditions such as obesity, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome frequently disrupt hormone production pathways, leading to a higher incidence of male hypogonadism due to their effects on testosterone synthesis and regulation. For example, in January 2022, the American Cancer Society, a U.S.-based cancer awareness nonprofit organization, estimated that there would be approximately 1.9 million new cancer cases and 609,360 cancer-related deaths in the U.S., equating to about 1,670 deaths daily. Globally, the most prevalent cancers include lung, prostate, colorectal, and breast cancers, which account for 43 percent of all newly diagnosed cases. Therefore, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases is driving the growth of the male hypogonadism market.
A prominent trend is the increasing popularity of product innovations. Companies within this sector are actively pursuing the development of novel products to maintain their competitive positions. For example, in June 2022, Halozyme, a biotechnology company based in the United States, introduced Tlando, an oral treatment designed for testosterone replacement therapy in male hypogonadism. Tlando, a prescription drug containing testosterone, represents a milestone as the first FDA-approved oral testosterone treatment. Its application is targeted at adult men experiencing low or no testosterone due to specific medical conditions.
Major players in the male hypogonadism market are strategically directing their efforts toward creating innovative products, including digital-forward platforms. These platforms aim to engage patients through telemedicine, provide educational resources, and simplify access to treatments, thereby revolutionizing the care landscape for male hypogonadism while enhancing patient support and treatment accessibility. An illustrative example is Base Healthcare, a U.S.-based men's virtual health platform, which, in October 2022, launched a subscription-based platform exclusively for men. This digital health platform prioritizes fundamental health and hormone enhancement through oral testosterone treatment, offering users convenient access to adequate testosterone therapy (ATT), certified medical professionals, and personalized health guidance.
In July 2022, Gruenenthal, a pharmaceutical company headquartered in Germany, acquired Nebido from Bayer AG for €500 million ($551.32 million). This acquisition is strategically aimed at enhancing Gruenenthal's profitability and enabling increased investment in research and development to pave the way for the next generation of pain therapies. Bayer AG, a renowned German pharmaceutical company, plays a pivotal role in the male hypogonadism treatment sector, further influencing the market landscape.
