Exercise Helps, Obesity Hinders Testosterone Replacement

ORLANDO, Florida Men with late-onset hypogonadism who exercise regularly
benefit more from testosterone replacement therapy than those who remain
sedentary, according to a new study.
.
Testosterone levels were significantly higher in the exercise group than
in the sedentary group, and the resolution of hypogonadism symptoms was
better in the exercise group, said Min Gu Park, MD, from the Department of
Urology at Inje University in Seoul, South Korea. In addition, the
benefits of exercise remained after replacement therapy was stopped.
.
In a separate study looking at predictors of poor response to testosterone
therapy, investigators found that nonobese men are much more likely to
achieve normal testosterone levels than obese men.
.
"Weight loss may be as important as prescribing testosterone in the
management of low T," said Ashley Winter, MD, a urology resident at Weill
Cornell Medical College in New York City.
.
"What this means to us as practitioners is that there is a profound loss
of healthcare dollars in treatment of low testosterone because of the
epidemic of obesity," she said. "Annually, at least $400 million are spent
on men who don't achieve normal levels of T despite treatment."
.
Both studies were presented here at the American Urological Association
2014 Annual Scientific Meeting.

Both studies were internally funded. Dr. Winter and Dr. Park have
disclosed no relevant financial relationships. Dr. Kler reports being on
the speaker's bureaus of Eli Lilly and Auxilium, both makers of
testosterone replacements.
