All patients had complete medical history and thorough physical examination including body mass index(BMI). Laboratory tests included serum total testosterone and glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) measurements. Quantitative androgen deficiency in the aging male (qADAM) scores were also recorded. Total serum testosterone levels were assessed, morning samples, at three-time points: baseline, 1 and 3 months. Testosterone levels increased at 1 and 3 months in all three groups analysed. Mean baseline testosterone was 2.31± 0.66nmol/l, BMI 30.8± 6.2, qA...
