Abstract INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: The use of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) among men is rising leading to an increasing number of men with TRT induced azoospermia from hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis suppression. Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) is used to mitigate...

Abstract INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: The preferred treatment for hypogonadism, testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), has a varying efficacy that is currently not understood. This observation may be explained by polymorphism of the androgen receptor (AR), a ligand-binding transcription factor...
