beta blockers and low testosterone?

[Guest guest]

Hi

I am just wondering.

I am on a beta blocker 5 mg per day called concor 5 to slow my

heart rate and angina.

Can this be the cause of me being secondary hypo.

Low LH and thus low T.

I mean if the beta blocker can block adreneline working on nerve cells

can beta blockers block the cells in the pituary gland making it not

" seeing " that testosterone is low. In other words blocking it.

just wondering.

I'm on a beta-blocker as well and I've never heard, or read on the

patient information sheet for my beta-blocker, that there is any

evidence that it can affect testosterone levels. If there was any

evidence that it did it would be on that information sheet.
