It is reported that luteinizing hormone is a glycoprotein gonadotropin secreted by pituitary cells, which promotes the conversion of cholesterol into sex hormones into gonadal cells.

Researchers believe that although the mini parameters are a direct reflection of the gonad function, the change in the above indication also provides the first indirect evidence of invasion of a specific function for the new coronavirus.

Clinical evidence first appeared! New coronavirus damages male reproductive function
