NCP Urology, 06/11/09
Stanworth RD et al. - Assessing androgen status using total testosterone in men with type 2 diabetes treated with statins, particularly atorvastatin, may potentially lead to diagnostic error. The authors advise that, if low testosterone levels are detected in men with type 2 diabetes who are taking any type of statin, concentrations of bioavailable testosterone should be checked to confirm the diagnosis of hypogonadism.
