Lower Testosterone in Men Tied to Severe COVID Cases By Nancy Melville May 27, 2021 While men have been shown to have greater risk of COVID-19 illness compared with women, a new study shows that the lower the testosterone level in men, the higher the likelihood of severe COVID-19 disease. “During the pandemic, there has been a prevailing notion that testosterone is bad,” senior author Abhinav Diwan, MD, a professor of medicine at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, said in a statement. “But we found the opposite in men,” he said. “If a man had low testosterone when he first came to the hospital, his risk of having severe COVID-19 meaning his risk of requiring intensive care or dying was much higher compared with men who had more circulating testosterone.”
