Hypogonadism likely increases the risk for type 2 diabetes, and type 2 diabetes/insulin resistance likely increases the risk of low testosterone.

“there's probably a dual causal relationship there meaning that hypogonadism probably increases your risk for type 2 diabetes and i would say that type 2 diabetes and or insulin resistance aka metabolic dysfunction also increases your risk of a low testosterone because those latex cells your pituitary all of your hormonal axes are not going to function properly”

“another paper from the same journal low testosterone levels are common and associated with insulin resistance in men with diabetes”
