Serum levels of various hormones have been estimated in cluster headache and non-cluster headache controls. Cluster headache patients were studied prior to, during, and after attack. During the cluster phase, plasma testosterone levels were low, whereas levels were within the reference limits. Normal values were also found in control patients with non-cluster headache. It is suggested that a decrease of plasma testosterone levels in episodic cluster headache should be viewed in context with disordered REM sleep in cluster headache.
已对丛集性头痛患者和非丛集性头痛对照者的各种激素血清水平进行了评估。对丛集性头痛患者在发作前、发作期间和发作后进行了研究。在丛集期，血浆睾酮水平较低，而其他时期的水平在参考范围内。非丛集性头痛对照患者也发现了正常值。有人提出，发作性丛集性头痛患者血浆睾酮水平的降低应结合丛集性头痛患者快速眼动睡眠紊乱的情况来看待。
