The thresholds for testost erone (T) and the symptoms required for defining late onset hypogonadism (LOH) are under debate.

The thresholds for testost erone (T) and the symptoms required for defining late onset hypogonadism (LOH) are under debate. The aims of the study are: (1) to verify the association between total and calculated free T (cfT) and sexual symptoms and (2) to identify thresholds for total and calculated free T to discriminate symptomatic from asymptomatic men.
