BACKGROUND The dramatic increase in the prevalence of high body mass index (BMI) increases the prevalence of allergic diseases, both in adults and children and obesity is associated with hypogonadism in adult males. AIM We aimed to evaluate the effect of high body mass index on plasma concentrations of testosterone and estradiol in young pubertal and adult males with allergic diseases. MATE...

BACKGROUND Increasing age and post-menopausal status are associated with decreasing androgen concentrations in females. Women with premature loss of ovarian function, such as primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) or iatrogenic menopause may be at increased risk for diminished testosterone levels at a relatively young age. Differentiation between a hypoandrogenic or normoandrogenic state in women ...

In the study, seasonal changes in follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), lutein (LH), total testosterone (TTH), and Free Testosterone Hormone (FTH) of Saanen goats were investigated. order to determine levels between February 2019 December 2019, blood samples taken from bucks (n=6) twice a week during entire trial. FSH level started decrease relatively after August lowest value was determined as 1...
