Abstract

The promise of testosterone therapy may seem enticing, but there are a lot of misconceptions about what the treatment can and can’t do. Recently, much has been written about testosterone and male hormone replacement therapies. Testosterone replacement therapies have become increasingly popular and many physicians are beginning to offer 2age management3 therapies to a wider range of patients. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of varies levels of testosterone on different metabolic parameters in male albino rats, as well as real time PCR GLUT 4 Gene expression level in adipose tissue and the size of visceral and subcutaneous fat cells. The study was conducted on 40 male albino rats that were subdivided into four groups: group I which is the control group I, group II included castrated animals, group III included castrated animals that received 0,2mg testosterone for 21 day and group IV included castrated animals that received 0.1mg testosterone daily for 21 day which is the duration of study
