Extra
- testosterone/estrogen will be decreased, LH/FSH will also be decreased (AKA secondary hypogonadism)
- narcotics act directly on the hypothalamus and inhibit the pulsatile release of GnRH, which blocks the release of LH and FSH from the pituitary, affecting the production of testosterone or estrogen from the gonads
