Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to find out if testosterone gel affects how the body handles insulin and glucose. Specific anti-HIV treatments may increase a patient's risk of certain diseases by causing metabolic problems such as reduced sensitivity to insulin. This substudy will examine how testosterone affects insulin sensitivity. If testosterone increases insulin sensitivity in the patients, then giving testosterone to HIV-infected patients may allow the continuation of anti-HIV treatments without increasing the patients' risk of disease. The test used to determine insulin sensitivity will be a modified frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test (FSIVGTT), which can accurately measure insulin sensitivity.
