The impact of androgen deprivation therapy on bone mineral density in men treated for paraphilic disorder: A retrospective cohort study.

Following a mean duration of 6 years of ADT, we observed a significant decline in BMD of approximately half a standard deviation in T-score at lumbar and femoral site. Although the number of patients who received bisphosphonates was limited, this treatment seems to have a positive stabilizing effect on bone density.
