Primary and Secondary Hypogonadism in Male Persons with Diabetes Mellitus

Discussion. TT levels were stable over time and hypogonadism was common. SH, generally clinically, is related to the diabetic state, while PH, generally subclinically, is an age-dependent process unrelated to diabetes. Low TT levels were related to older age, poor metabolic control, metformin and statins use, and microvascular disease.PMID:34149839 | PMC:PMC8197670 | DOI:10.1155/2021/8799537
