Pathy (path = disease + y = process) is used to indicate a disease condition. Andropathy means disease processes particular to men.

Pathology meand the process of studying diseases.

Sometimes, instead of using "disease" the term will have it a medical condition. In that case you will see "-iasis" or "-osis added as a suffix as in hyperhydrosis (hyper = a lot + hydr = water + osis = condition of).
