...Total serum T concentrations were within normal physiological range on day 0 (449 � 35 ng/dL) and day 3 (441 � 44 ng/dL) of OX treatment. However, by day 5, total serum T concentrations were significantly reduced (282 � 45 ng/dL; P < 0.05) below day 0 and day 3 values (Fig. 3)...Figure 3. Total androgen concentration. Total serum T (hatched portion) and OX (black portion) concentrations in five young men on days 0, 3, and 5. *, T decreased significantly from days 0 and 3 to day 5 (P < 0.05).
