OP=oestrogen patches. *One patient did not start treatment, withdrew soon after randomisation, and did not attend any trial visits. †Men with oestradiol concentraions of 250 pmol/L or lower were assumed not to be using OP and were excluded. ‡Includes a small number of individuals (maximum 3) who had been assumed not to be receiving treatment at an earlier time (eg, owing to low oestradiol concentrations, reported difficulty in using OP, or missed appointments).
