PQ 2081
2081. Deputy Martin Daly asked the Minister for Health in light of the recent introduction of the free hormone replacement therapy measure for women experiencing menopause, if she has considered extending similar financial support to men diagnosed with hypogonadism or male menopause who require testosterone replacement therapy such as testogel given that both conditions involve hormone deficiencies with significant physical and psychological symptoms; the reason men are excluded from this support; and if there are plans to address this apparent gender-based disparity in access to essential hormone treatments.
