[Sexual function rehabilitation of men with pituitary tumors].
A prospective trial of the methods of sexual rehabilitation of 31 men with pituitary tumors has shown that therapy with testosterone and chorionic gonadotropin effectively corrects hypogonadism and sexual disorders. In insufficient efficacy normalization of sexual function is achieved with tadalafil. Both methods of treatment had no negative effect on the size of the prostatic gland and PSA level except 2 patients with somatotropinoma on testosterone. In the course of chorionic gonadotropin treatment pituitary tumor increased in size in 3 patients.
