Title: Effects of Ibuprofen on Male Fertility - Elawoman - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Description: However, despite the change in LH levels, the men's testosterone levels didn't change. This indicates that they had developed a condition called "compensated hypogonadism," which happens when testosterone production is reduced, but the body is able to compensate by increasing LH levels, the researchers said. Compensated hypogonadism is typically found in older men, and it is linked with impaired fertility, according to the study. Separate experiments in the study using human testicular tissue in a lab dish also suggested that ibuprofen could affect testosterone production. It's important to note that the study did not look at sperm production or other more direct indicators of the men's fertility, so further studies would be needed to examine this, the researchers said. – PowerPoint PPT presentation
