Very low testosterone levels, below 153 ng/dL, were also associated with a higher risk of death from cardiovascular disease. High levels of luteinizing hormone and low concentrations of estradiol were also linke

The study team also noted that while testosterone levels and the ability to perform self-care activities both tend to decline with age, it is unclear whether either factor causes the other or whether a third unexplored factor causes both. “Low testosterone, estradiol and estrone concentrations may...
This clinical trial compares the effects of testosterone gel vs placebo for 12 months on noncalcified coronary artery plaque volume in older men with low
Epidemiological studies have shown that low testosterone is associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS) in Caucasian men. We investigated whether testosterone level is related to the prevalence of MetS in middle-aged Japanese men. A cross-sectional survey
Testosterone is the natural male steroid hormone (androgen) responsible for the development of male reproductive organs, their normal functioning, and male secondary sexual characteristics such as increased muscle mass, bone mass and strength, body hair,
This controlled clinical trial explores whether testosterone treatment of older men with low testosterone improves their bone density and strength.
Although testosterone is the primary male sex hormone, a small amount is also necessary for female health. (Photo Credit: Image Source/Getty Images) Estrogen in Women Estrogen is a class of related hormones that includes estriol,estradiol, and estrone. ...
Background Past research suggests that low testosterone levels relate to poorer cognitive function and higher Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk; however, these findings are inconsistent and are mostly derived from male samples, despite similar age-related testosterone decline in females...
12 In target cells, testosterone can also be converted to 2 active metabolites: dihydrotestosterone, a highly potent activator of androgen receptors, and estradiol.13 It seems plausible, therefore, that low concentrations of testosterone will result in reduced androgen receptor activation and a decline...
