The method of treating or preventing a disease in a human male or a male animal caused by a decreased production of androgens, such as testosterone, in the human male or male animal includes administering an effective amount of a glucocorticoid receptor antagonist to the human male or the male animal in order to increase production of the androgens. These diseases include male sexual dysfunction, infertility and hypogonadism. Novel androgen receptor antagonist compounds and methods of synthesis are also described. |
