[40] demonstrated lower testosterone and higher LH levels in a cohort of reproductive-aged SARS-CoV-2-infected males, compared to age-matched healthy controls [41] (Fig. 1). Rastrelli et al. showed that patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 might have decreased total and free testosterone levels, and these lower levels of testosterone levels positively correlate with disease progression [41]. Similarly, Çayan et al. showed that circulating testosterone levels decreased in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2, and lower testosterone levels were associated with mortality [42]. In another study, testosterone deficiency was found in 74% of the patients with COVID-19 compared with 38% in age-match control men [43]. A recent large case–control study demonstrated that COVID-19 is associated with lower circulation total testosterone levels and related to secondary hypogonadism in a high percentage of infected patients (85%) [44].", "image": { "$type": "blob", "ref": { "$link": "bafkreigacmrf22bqq7dczayemwzje2x7uxuhtsldbplw5nnzeplcp7hnou" }, "mimeType": "image/jpeg", "size": 723558 }, "aspectRatio": { "width": 900, "height": 2000 } } ] }, "langs": [ "en" ], "reply": { "root": { "cid": "bafyreicuqvlrj4wmftmdm7pgvjq46fffxlq6d65a3b7wpsacc2v5zt3pta", "uri": "at://did:plc:uyu4vsdfgpgyeoe77nmelqfn/app.bsky.feed.post/3lngnycp7ms2r" }, "parent": { "cid": "bafyreicuqvlrj4wmftmdm7pgvjq46fffxlq6d65a3b7wpsacc2v5zt3pta", "uri": "at://did:plc:uyu4vsdfgpgyeoe77nmelqfn/app.bsky.feed.post/3lngnycp7ms2r" } }, "facets": [ { "index": { "byteEnd": 157, "byteStart": 127 }, "features": [ { "uri": "https://www.nature.com/articles/s41443-022-00540-0", "$type": "app.bsky.richtext.facet#link" } ] } ], "createdAt": "2025-04-23T00:00:54.891Z" } }
