Androgens and estrogens predict sexual function after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant in men

ConclusionAndrogens and estrogens are both adversely affected by AHSCT but may predict sexual dysfunction in this population. This supports the premise that estrogen impacts sexual function independent from androgens and that steroid hormones are associated with acute changes in sexual function in this setting. Larger, controlled trials with long-term sex hormone assessment will need to confirm the association between early changes in estrogens and long-term sexual function recovery.This article is protected by copyright.
