Abstract:
It is possible to observe in the aging male an hypotestosteronemia below 3 ng/ml. The indications of an androgenic treatment are discussed with their benefits, risks, contra-indications and choices of molecules. Testosterone-gel seems to be now the first choice for this type of patient. In case of normal testosteronemia and erectile dysfunction, the benefits/risks ratio of sildenafil is very favorable, except when contra-indicated.
