Study Finds GLP-1 Drugs May Raise Testosterone in Men With Obesity
A review of five clinical trials found the drugs may improve testosterone, sperm quality and metabolic health in men with obesity-related low testosterone.
- A study found that GLP-1 drugs, which treat diabetes and aid weight loss, may raise testosterone and improve sperm count and quality in men with obesity over 24 weeks.
- The study showed increased testosterone levels and related hormones, improved sperm shape, and better cholesterol levels with GLP-1 treatment in men with obesity and low testosterone.
- While promising, larger studies are still needed to fully understand the effects of GLP-1 drugs on male fertility, as the observed benefits are likely indirect results of weight loss and improved metabolic health.
