Low Testosterone Studies

Recently, the Endocrine Society called for more low testosterone studies to be conducted in low T or low testosterone therapy because it may be causing problems in men.

Testosterone was approved for the treatment of hypogonadism due to known diseases of the testes, pituitary and hypothalamus.  Although the use of testosterone therapy is increasing, the treatment has not been approved for the treatment of age-related symptoms or the age-related decline of testosterone levels.  The Endocrine Society has a also published a guide that outlines testosterone therapy in men.

These low testosterone studies raised concerns that low T therapy or low testosterone therapy may possibly be linked to cardiovascular events in men.

Some the potential problems that may be caused by low T or low testosterone therapy may include:

  • Stroke, which occurs when a blood clot reaches the brain and restricts oxygen supply
  • Pulmonary embolism, which happens when a blood clot lodges in the lungs
  • Blood Clot in the Deep Veins (Deep Vein Thrombosis or DVT)
  • Myocardial infarction (Heart Attack), commonly known as a heart attack – a sudden loss of blood flow in the heart
  • Arrhythmia, an irregular heartbeat
  • Transient ischemic attacks, or “mini-strokes,” as they are commonly called
  • Death
