While IF has proven beneficial to women especially in tackling PCOS - there's active primary research pointing that it spurs adverse effects in men, negatively impacting metabolic health and libido. Essentially, men need to be careful with IF. https://t.co/DGNBtrYdzx

What people are saying
Several posts reference specific findings from the article, such as the impact of intermittent fasting on testosterone levels in men and its potential benefits for women with PCOS. The choice of words like 'careful' and 'game changer' along with varying tones from skeptical to excited showcases a blend of personal opinion and shared knowledge, creating a community dialogue that reflects both concern and interest in the health effects stemming from this research.
The majority of discussions indicate a general agreement with the findings of the article, especially regarding the effects of intermittent fasting on reproductive hormones.
Participants show a strong curiosity about the implications of intermittent fasting on hormonal health, leading to substantial discussion around the topic.
While there is some depth in the engagement with the topic, many discussions lean towards casual commentary rather than deep analysis of the research.
Many contributors highlight the significance of the findings, indicating that they view the implications of the study as substantial for personal health choices.
Abstract in brief
- Intermittent fasting may help with weight loss but has raised concerns about its impact on reproductive health for both genders, particularly on hormone levels.
- In premenopausal women with obesity, fasting appears to lower testosterone and increase sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), especially when food intake is limited to earlier in the day.
- For men, while fasting decreases testosterone levels in lean, active young males, it doesn't impact SHBG or muscle strength, indicating the need for further studies to understand these hormonal changes and their health implications.

@AFSienko @iam_preethi https://t.co/tUXXUxT3U3 You're wrong. She is right. Fasting is a phenomenal tool for men, in alot of different ways, but it is only good for women with hyperandrogenism PCOS. Women need high caloric intake and a certain amount of body fat to maintain fertility.
