Sorry not a "pub med" article for the medical gurus here.
Low testosterone here. I contribute that to CFIDS. Really reduces energy and affects mood. Tried supplementing with the testosterone creme/gel before and felt good for a few days before crashing.

The University of Colorado team discovered that many breast cancers possess androgen receptors on their surface, and that male hormones like testosterone fuel the tumour's growth, reports BBC.

Nearly Half of U.S. Veterans Found With Blast Concussions Might Have Hormone Deficiencies
The researchers found that about 42 percent of these veterans showed abnormally low levels of at least one of these hormones. The most common low hormone was human growth hormone, which can cause behavioral and cognitive symptoms similar to PTSD and depression, along with increases in blood lipids and changes in metabolism and blood pressure that can increase the risk of heart attack and stroke. The second most common problem was hypogonadism, changes in sexual hormones that can affect body composition and sexual function.
