  • Title: [Serum testosterone determination in the antiandrogen therapy of sexual deviations with cyproterone acetate (preliminary report of experiences)].
    Author: Glander HJ, Sorger D.
    Journal: Psychiatr Neurol Med Psychol (Leipz); 1984 Oct; 36(10):596-603. PubMed ID: 6240067.
    Abstract:
    Total testosterone concentrations in the serum of patients treated with antiandrogens were measured by means of an industrially produced radioimmunological testosterone assay kit (VEB Sächsisches Serumwerk Dresden). Antiandrogen therapy using cyproterone acetate (Androcur) leads to a reduction in serum testosterone concentration which is significant at the p less than 0.01 level. The data suggest that testosterone concentrations vary inversely with increasing Androcur dosage; they are around 7 nmol/l at the doses conventionally administered. The testosterone concentrations obtained under depot-Androcur treatment suggest that intervals between injections should be less than 10 days.
