Nathan Goodyear on 19 May 14Study finds no worsening in cardiovascular biomarkers in women on Testosterone. The women in this study were chose due to low Testosterone. Testosterone was given IM at 4 different doses. This is in contrast to other studies that have looked at endogenous Testosterone level. Studies have shown increasing endogenous T levels in women is associated with increased CVD. Studies on exogenous are lacking. This points to limited risk associated with CVD and T therapy in women. One caveat. Two of the authors of this study have ties to the maker of the Testosterone enanthate used in this study. Why is this important? Prior studies have shown significant decrease in adverse event reporting in those funded by pharma--bias.
