Tratamiento con Clomifeno Citrato y Testosterona para Hombres Jóvenes Diabéticos Tipo 2 con Hipogonadismo Hipogonadotrópico

This project will study young men with type 2 diabetes. We have shown that half of these men have low testosterone levels. This can lead to 1) Low muscle mass; 2) more fat mass; 3) insulin resistance; 4) low sperm count and 5) increased inflammation (that increases the risk of heart disease). This project will study these consequences in detail and also the possibility of reversing them with treatment. Information from this project will be useful in planning of future studies that will evaluate the effect of treatment of low testosterone on mortality, heart disease and stroke.
