Background: In men inhibin B is correlated with sperm count, concentration and testicular volume. Anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) is significantly positively correlated with inhibin B and significantly negatively correlated with FSH. Raised FSH is a traditional marker of infertility. Young male cancer patients treated with gonadotoxic agents are at high risk of hypogonadism (HG). The relationship between inhibin B and AMH with serum total testosterone is unclear.<p class...

Background and AimIt is known that the variability of testosterone concentrations is predictive of both truncal and peripheral obesity in healthy men. The aim of this study was to establish the nature of the relationship between testosterone and fat mass in young male cancer survivors compared with healthy controls.Subjects176 male cancer survivors (mean age 37.3 years SD 5.8) who previously received gonadoto...
