Study Summary

The purpose of this research study is to understand the effects of testosterone and estrogen on the body's response to the hormone insulin.

Primary Outcome

Whole body insulin sensitivity as quantified by Matsuda Index at the end of the treatment period, calculated by the following equation: 10,000/square root of(FPG\*FI)\*(FPG+PG30\*2+PG60\*2+PG90\*2+PG120)/8\*(FPI+PI30\*2+PI60\*2+PI90\*2+PI)/8). FPG=fasting plasma glucose level; FPI=fasting plasma insulin level; PG30,60,90, and 120=plasma glucose levels sampled at 30,60,90, and 120 minutes after oral glucose load; PI30,60,90, and 120=plasma insulin levels sampled at 30,60,90, and 120 minutes after
