Did you read the study? Or even the first line of the abstract? “Hypogonadal men with hepatic steatosis” is literally in the first sentence.

It’s a study on men with low testosterone and fatty liver disease. They already have damaged livers.

If the presence of testosterone can improve the function of damaged liver, there's no reason to think that a healthy liver would get damaged by it. I can't even think of any mechanism that would be involved.
