A Key Hormone Providing Information on Men’s Health Found

As humans, we face many health problems as we age. However, this is not the same for everyone. Some people get older from cardiovascular diseases to sexual dysfunctionsWhile people encounter many diseases from joint diseases to diabetes and cancer, some manage to stay much healthier and vigorous.

Of course, at this point, there are many factors such as lifestyle, healthy diet, regular exercise, but this alone cannot explain the situation. Identifying why the process is so different for each person, and in order to detect and solve the health problems that will be encountered in old age at an early stage. Researchers working on it may have made an important discovery for men.

INSL3 hormone may provide important information about men’s health

According to a new study carried out by a large research team from different universities from countries such as England, Spain, Sweden, Estonia and Belgium, a hormone called INSL3 found in the human body found that it may be associated with many diseases for men’s health.

The hormone INSL3 first appears during adolescence and then remains stable until old age. There is a slight decrease in old age.. Consistency in the constant level of the hormone and the fact that it appears at an early age provide important data for scientists.

Examining the samples taken from more than two thousand men within the scope of the study, the research team in men with low hormone levels He found that as you get older, you are more likely to develop the disease. So if your INSL3 hormone is lower, your risk of developing diseases such as heart disease and blood pressure increases as you get older.

Creates ‘risk map’ of many high-risk diseases

The data obtained from the examined samples actually show that the hormone is associated with cancer, diabetes and with different diseases such as sexual dysfunctions proved to be related. However, when certain behaviors such as smoking were eliminated, the link between these diseases and the hormone disappeared.

In the study, it was determined with the samples taken at the same time Whether the INSL3 level can be used to detect diseases that will develop within four years. was also tested. The result was that low hormone levels could be associated with seven different diseases.

As the research team investigates the relationship between INSL3 and diseases and the factors that affect the level of this hormone, more valuable information will be obtained. From the team, molecular endocrinologist Richard Ivell “No longer we know the important role this hormone plays in predicting disease and how it varies among menwe turn our attention to finding out which factors have the greatest influence on the blood INSL3 level” He also explained the direction of the works.

The team also found that this hormone, which is closely related to the testosterone hormone, effects on sexual health stresses the need for further investigation.
