Background:
Hypogonadism complicating diabetes was
predominately hypogonadotropic reflecting pituitary dysfunction.
We evaluated the relationship between vitamin D status with
testosterone deficiency among patients with type 2 diabetes
mellitus (T2DM).
Results:
Testosterone deficiency prevalence in T2DM patients
was 41.1%. Hypogonadismdiabetic patients had significant lower
25(OH)D levels than patients without hypogonadism. Diabetic
patients with testosterone deficiency had significant higher
prevalence of vitamin D deficiency (61.5% and 28.6%), and non-
significant higher prevalence of insufficiency (84.6% and 82.1%)
in comparison with patients without. Vitamin D deficient diabetic
patients showed significant lower total testosterone levels but not
gonadotropin as compared to those without deficiency. In linear
regression analysis, we found that 25(OH)D was a significant
predictor of total testosterone levels in diabetic patients. As per
logistic regression analysis, vitamin D deficiency was found to
be a significant risk factor for male hypogonadism in diabetic
patients.
Conclusions:
Diabetic patients with testosterone deficiency had
significant lower 25(OH)D levels and higher prevalence of vitamin
D deficiency and insufficiency as compared to those without
testosterone deficiency. Vitamin D deficient patients had lower
testosterone levels. 25(OH)D was a significant predictor of total
testosterone levels. Vitamin D deficiency was a significant risk
factor for male hypogonadism in diabetic patients.
