Serum testosterone and prolactin levels in erectile dysfunction.
Serum testosterone and prolactin levels were determined in 52 impotent patients. Fifteen percent were found to have abnormally low testosterone levels. Low testosterone levels were related to clinical ratings of decreased libido and the absence of early morning erections. Suggestive relationships between testosterone levels and scales on the Derogatis Sexual Functioning Inventory were noted.
