Total testosterone ( ng/dL) 35 ± 16 36 ± 11 0.8
Free testosterone (ng/dL) 0.6 (0.5,0.8) 0.7 (0.4,0.8) 0.8

Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (ng/mL) 1657 ± 830 2099 ± 1031 0.2

Values are expressed as median (interquartile range) or mean ± SD

While total testosterone was compared with Student's t test, other parameters were compared with Mann–Whitney U test
