Sex Hormones Associated With Broken Bones In Older Men

Published on Thursday, 6 August 2009 17:00 from ScienceDaily

Low levels of estradiol or high levels of sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) are associated with an increased risk of osteoporotic fracture in older men, according to a new study. The study also finds that men with low levels of testosterone combined with high levels of SHBG are also at higher risk for bone fracture.
