Purpose The thresholds for testosterone (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.
