초록

Polycythemia is a condition in which the red blood cell count is increased due to an inherited or acquired mutation, a physiologic response to hypoxia, autonomous erythropoietin production, or deliberate erythropoietin administration. Higher testosterone levels appear to act as a stimulus for erythropoiesis and testosterone replacement therapies have rarely been reported as causes of polycythemia. We report here a case of a 51-year-old man with polycythemia that was caused by long-acting testosterone undecanoate (NebidoⓇ).
