Low Testosterone Linked to Alzheimer's Disease

ScienceDaily for October 5, 2010 reported on Testosterone levels and Alzheimer's.

"Having low testosterone may make you more vulnerable to Alzheimer's disease," said John E. Morley, M.D., director of the division of geriatric medicine at Saint Louis University and a study co-investigator. "The take-home message is we should pay more attention to low testosterone, particularly in people who have memory problems or other signs of cognitive impairment."
