          "alt": "A study by Ma et al. [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].",
