  Aim: This study aimed to explore the potential involvement of endogenous testosterone levels in the etiopathogenesis of Central Serous Chorioretinopathy (CSCR). Materials and methods: Conducted as a case-control study with 82 participants selected from a tertiary care center in North India, the subjects were categorized into 41 cases and 41 controls. Fasting blood samples were collected in the early morning to assess serum testosterone levels, measured using the chemiluminescent immunoassay method. Results: The mean age for CSCR patients and controls was 35.71 ± 5.82 years (range 22-49 years) and 33.71 ± 8.42 years (range 20-50 years), respectively. The median serum testosterone level in cases was 4.79 ng/ml, with an odds ratio of 3.16. However, the 95% Confidence Interval (CI) of the odds .. View More»
