SAT-038 Ambulatory Blood Pressure Increases in Hypogonadal Men Who Develop Increases in Hematocrit on Oral Testosterone Undecanoate

Rosiglitazone increases testosterone in hypogonadal type 2 diabetic men.

Clomiphene Citrate Effectively Increases Testosterone in Obese, Young, Hypogonadal Men.

BACKGROUND Obesity has been associated with low testosterone (T) in adult males and in pubertal boys. Therapy for hypogonadism with exogenous T may lead to testicular atrophy and later infertility. Only a few studies have demonstrated that the Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator (SERM) clomiphene citrate (CC), an estrogen receptor antagonist, increases T in obese hypogonadal men while prevent...

Comparison of long-acting testosterone undecanoate formulation versus testosterone enanthate on sexual function and mood in hypogonadal men.

OBJECTIVE To compare the effects of two treatment modalities of testosterone on sexual functioning and mood. Design Forty men were randomized to receive either parenteral testosterone enanthate (TE) or long-acting parenteral testosterone undecanoate (TU) over a period of 30 weeks. Thereafter, 20 men who had received TU and 16 men who had received TE continued with TU and completed another 65 we...

Repeated intramuscular injections of testosterone undecanoate for substitution therapy in hypogonadal men.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the suitability of intramuscular testosterone undecanoate (TU) injections for substitution therapy in hypogonadal men. STUDY DESIGN Clinical, open-label, non-randomized trial of 13 hypogonadal men receiving 4 intramuscular injections of 1000 mg TU in 4-ml castor oil at 6-week intervals. General wellbeing, sexual parameters, clinical chemistry, hormone levels, prostate...

Testosterone undecanoate maintains spermatogenic suppression induced by cyproterone acetate plus testosterone undecanoate in normal men.

In this study we evaluated whether testosterone undecanoate (TU), alone or combined with low dose cyproterone acetate (CPA), can maintain spermatogenic suppression induced by higher doses of CPA plus TU. Twenty-four men received for 12 wk 20 mg/d CPA plus 1000 mg/6 wk TU and then 1000 mg/8 wk TU plus 20 mg/d CPA (n = 8), 2 mg/d CPA (n = 8), or plus placebo (n = 8) for 32 wk. Blood samples, phys...
