Introduction: Obesity and hypogonadism (HG) are two conditions frequently observed in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The complex relationship between obesity and hormonal imbalances, particularly hypogonadism, remains a key area of interest in understanding the overall health profile of men with T2D.Methods: In this cross-sectional study involving 250 men with T2D undergoing diabetes consultations, comprehensive clinical examinations were carried out...

Introduction: Hypogonadism (HG), a condition characterized by low levels of testosterone, is a common issue in men, particularly those with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The relationship between glycemic control and HG has been a topic of interest in recent years. In this study, we aimed to investigate the influence of glycemic control on HG.Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study involving 250 men with T2D aged 40 to 65 years, followed in outpatie...

Introduction: Male hypogonadism (HG), characterized by a decrease in testosterone levels, becomes more prevalent with age, significantly impacting the quality of life. A noteworthy association with type 2 diabetes (T2D) has increasingly captured medical interest. The critical question persists: is the HG observed in T2D patients of central or peripheral origin? This study delves into this inquiry to enhance our understanding and inform better management....

Introduction: The association between male hypogonadism (HG) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) has become a growing focus in medical research. However, a major challenge stems from the lack of consensus in defining HG, leading to variations in diagnostic thresholds among different medical societies. This study addresses this challenge by proposing a new perspective on the classification and thresholds of HG.Methods: The research focused on a group of 250 adult m...
