They are common. Id say about 4% of lowT guys. generally in men whos Total T is less than 200ng/dl. Most are microadenomas less than 10mm so need to operate unless you have vison problems, optic pressure. Most men should have a prolaction panel done and an MRI if your T level is less than 200ng/dl. They have a new surgery out now if you have a Macroadenoma more than 10mm. They go in through the nasal cqavity and breakup the tumor and extract. In the 90s they would remove by pulling tumor piece by piece out of the nasal cavity then also hit you with 30 treatments of Radiation treatment. Disgusting! No need for Rad therapy if benign guys.
