The challenges here is that testosterone was found to be lower for folks with covid/long covid. So your observations add up. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/ebiom/article/PIIS2352-39... > A significant proportion of male COVID-19 patients also display persistent low testosterone levels, reminiscent of absent or aberrant GnRH production, and SARS-CoV-2 has been shown to invade the brain. Taken together, these findings raise the possibility that in such patients, the GnRH system may be infected or dysfunctional, leading to the accelerated aging and cognitive deficits observed in patients with “long-COVID” or post-COVID syndrome. However, in what way and for how long GnRH neurons or their function may be affected in COVID-19 patients is still unknown. |
