[QUOTE="S1W, post: 173883, member: 16947"] CROM, I think this is a good discussion and I doubt you're the only one that has had this thought. I have no medical training and don't understand some of these mechanisms. However, I have read that some researchers believe that blood pressure, ACE/ACEII can have an effect on the severity of the virus. I tried to read a few articles about ACEII and testosterone and don't think I have the medical knowledge to really digest it. I have also read that the use of certain ACE inhibitors are an additional risk factor in Covid-19 patients. However, perhaps not Losartan? I would think that so long as TRT doses are not high to the point that they are creating a prehypertensive/hypertensive state, that TRT should not put us at any increased risk. Anyway, take all of this with a grain of salt, as clearly I'm not a doctor. [/QUOTE]
