Anonymous User624 05-Oct-2020

New arguments are coming out of the ongoing study on the Coronavirus. Now according to a study, Covid-19 has revealed a decrease in the levels of testosterone in men due to loss of libido in men. It has a bad effect. Research has also reported that disturbances in the level of hormones are impairing the ability of men to fight against diseases.

Ability to fight diseases in men 

However, according to Selahittin Cayan, professor of Urology at the University of Mersin and the lead author of the study, Selahittin Cayan, it has already been reported that lower testosterone levels reduce the ability to fight diseases in men. This can cause SARS-CoV-2, but this is the first study to claim that Covid-19 lowers testosterone levels. 

What do researchers say? 

Scientists believe that on the basis of this study, it can be found out that in the case of Covid-19, why the ability of men to fight diseases is decreasing compared to women.

Therefore, based on the treatment of testosterone, possible improvements can be expected in the physician field. Studies have shown that testosterone is associated with the immune system of the respiratory organs, which increases the risk of respiratory infections by lowering hormone levels. The study found that sex hormones levels have been found to decrease in severe Covid-19 infected men. 

Researcher Kayan stated that the overall average level of testosterone has been found to be better in patients with mild symptoms compared to Covid-19 patients admitted to the ICU (Intensive Care Unit). Apart from this, testosterone levels in ICU (Intensive Care Unit) patients are not sufficient compared to patients in the Intermediate Care Unit. 

This major reduction found in corona patients 

At the same time, researchers said that the level of stimulant hormone has been found to be higher in patients with ICU than in patients with mild symptoms. According to Kayan, Hypogonadism is a condition that causes a decrease in testosterone levels in the body of 51.1 percent of men.

According to the study, a large reduction in the number of sex hormones has been found in men who die from the corona. He also told that 65.2 percent of the 46 men with mild symptoms have reported libido. The scientists assessed a total of 438 patients, including 232 men, in each of which SARS-CoV-2 was confirmed. 

Treatment of testosterone levels is important 

Researchers on this study said that patients with a group of diseases other than COVID-19 have not been included. Researchers say that along with the treatment of Covid-19, treatment of the testosterone level of the patient is also very important. He said that this will increase the ability of patients to fight against diseases.
