Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Other: Testosterone
To determine the effect of testosterone on the NP responses to acute and chronic salt loading. One testosterone patch (Androderm 5 mg) applied to each male subject each day for 14 days. Intervention: Leuprolide acetate and anastrozole |
Given to both arms to induce hypogonadism
Other Names:
Given to men to prevent conversion of administered testosterone to estradiol.
Other Names:
|
Other: Estradiol
To determine the effect of estradiol on the NP responses to acute and chronic salt loading. Two estradiol patches (Vivelle Dot 0.1mg) will be applied to each female subject twice-a-week for 2 weeks. Intervention: leuprolide acetate |
Given to both arms to induce hypogonadism
Other Names:
