Little is known about HIV-infected patients with serum testosterone levels in high normal to elevated ranges.

In addition to this, the hormone therapy of transsexuals involving additional administration of antiandrogens or GnRH agonists further decreases testosterone levels in the patient.

In terms of group status, patients in group 1 had serum FT concentrations of 2.11 pg/mL greater on average than patients in group 3 (p=0.006).We infer that episodes of paralysis in Chinese men with TPP are associated with elevated serum testosterone. We also found serum TT and FT ...
