A total of 438 patients were examined by the team of researchers for this study, which included 232 males and each with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 infection. After monitoring the detailed clinical history of the patient’s researchers even took the patients' physical examination.

Three groups were made for the cohort study-asymptomatic patients (46), symptomatic patients who were hospitalised in the internal medicine unit (IMU) (29), and patients who were hospitalised in the ICU (46).

The results revealed that the mean total testosterone decreased as the severity of the COVID-19 increased. Comparative analysis has shown that the mean total level of the male hormone was significantly lower in the ICU group than in the asymptomatic group.

Cayan said that they found Hypogonadism - a condition where the body does not produce enough testosterone - in 51.1% of the male patients. Additionally, the patients who had died had significantly lower mean total testosterone than the patients who were alive she said. "However, even 65.2 percent of the 46 male patients who were asymptomatic had a loss of libido," Cayan added.
