Infection with the novel coronavirus causes damage to testicles in hamsters and associated hormonal changes, according to a new study that has called for better long-term follow-up studies of fertility in recovered Covid-19 patients.
Researchers, including those from the University of Hong Kong, assessed the gradual immunological, pathological and hormonal changes in hamster testes following infection with the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 and its variants.
