Official title
Provocative Testing Using LHRH and hCG of the Pituitary-Gonadal Axis in Persons With Spinal Cord Injury
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
There is evidence that has shown that serum testosterone levels are low in persons with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI). The question arises as to whether the defect in testosterone production is from the hypothalamic pituitary system (part of the brain that plays a role in testosterone release) or from the male testes. Studies to date are inconclusive. This study, will examine if persons with SCI has a normal hormonal regulation of the male hormone testosterone in comparison to persons who are able-bodied. This will help understand the physical and metabolic changes that occur in persons with SCI.
