OBJECTIVES: Testosterone deficit syndrome (TDS) is a clinical and biochemical entity characterized by low testosterone levels and androgenic deprivation clinic, which can cause a decrease in the quality of life. However, today there are doubts about its diagnosis and therapeutic management.METHODS: Bibliographic review using the MedLine database and detailed presentation of one clinical case.RESULTS: Testosterone deficit syndrome is associated with metabolic syndrome (visceral obesity, arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus and dyslipemia). Currently, the performance of TDS screening in all males over the age of 45 years is under discussion. We propose a diagnostic-therapeutic algorithm for the management of TDS and erectile dysfunction.CONCLUSIONS: The treatment of erectile dysfunction associated with late start hypogonadism follows the same steps tha other generic cases of erectile dysfunction.
