摘要
Objectives: Obesity and increased weight are recognized risk factors of hypogonadism. This study looked into the relation between body mass index (BMI) and serum testosterone level. Patients and Methods: This was a prospective study of 664 patients. All patients had BMI calculation and serum Testosterone measurement. Patients with any other possible cause for hypogonadism were excluded from the study. Results: Statistical analysis of the results showed an inverse correlation between the BMI and serum testosterone. Conclusion: Increasing BMI is an independent risk factor in lowering serum testosterone.
