Their primary action is to reduce blood lipid levels. There may be side effects to the medication including headaches, nausea and drowsiness. In rare cases, adverse reactions include muscle pain or rhabdomyolysis. Cholesterol-lowering medication may inhibit sterol production in the testes, as testosterone is formed directly from cholesterol. As such there is research to suggest that statins can lower T levels as well as have potentially negative effects on secondary sex hormones, size of the testes and aggression."}
