| dc.description.abstract | Background and Aim: Severe obesity may cause hypogonadism in men. Our study aims to study the relation between hyperlipidemia and serum level of total testosterone. Methods: Serum concentrations of total testosterone, triglyceride and cholesterol were determined in thirty five healthy male individual which were divided into two groups the test group which includes 14 individuals with high lipid profile while the control group includes 21 individuals with normal lipid profile. Results: Significant reduction (p ? 0.05) in serum testosterone level in obese and hypertriglyceridemic individuals (4.98 � 1.72) and (5.47 ? 1.85) when compared with control group (6.86 �2.30) respectively. Conclusion: This study concludes that obesity and hypertriglyceridemia reduce serum testosterone level. | en_US |
