Serum levels SHBG, TT, TL TB evaluated proportion was estimated. hormonal defined as: a) serum <2.49 ng/mL TT under 50 <1.93 or older; b) value <2% testosterone; c) <40% d) SHBG >54.1 nmol/L younger than >76.7 older. Results 30 subjects participated The mean 50.6 (+/− 13.2), median scores IIEF-EF, Erection Hardness Score (EHS) Aging Male Symptoms (AMS) 15 (range 1-24), 2 1-3) 29.5 11-62) respectively. 6 patients (20%) had severe dysfunction, 13 (43.3%) moderate, 8 (26.7%) mild to 3 (10%) 4.94 1.91), FT 1.94% 0.605), BT 45.6% 14.2), 33.3 ( +/− 14.5). Only 6.7% (n=2) presented while 60% (n=18) an alteration found, 36.7% (n=11) 3.3% (n=1) alterations, being more frequent moderate ED.
