This study was carried out in order to investigate the relationship between endogenous sex steroid hormones and coronary artery disease (CAD). Three hundred and thirty-seven men undergoing coronary angiography were enrolled in the study. Total testosterone, estradiol, free testosterone levels in men with CAD (n = 213) were compared to those of men without CAD (n = 124). No significant differences were found in the serum concentrations of estradiol, total and free testosterone and serum lipid profile between the two groups. Total and free testosterone were negatively (p < 0.05 to p < 0.001) and estradiol was positively (p < 0.05) correlated with age in both groups. Total cholesterol and low-density-lipoprotein levels were positively correlated with the level of free testosterone (r = 0.221, p < 0.01; r = 0.173, p < 0.05, respectively), and high-density-lipoprotein levels were negatively correlated with total testosterone in patients with CAD (r = -0.166, p < 0.05). The results of this study do not support the role of sex steroid hormones in CAD. However, the relationship between sex steroids and serum lipids needs further clarification.
