Erectile Dysfunction: Nope. Not at all. Ed is usually caused by hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, obesity, increased blood sugars or diabetes, etc. Testosterone is only one possible contributing fact for some with ed.

Testosterone in male: Although low t is popular in the media of late and testosterone does indeed decline at about the rate of 1 percent a year after age 30, other causes of ed in a 44 year old male exist . 40 percent of males in their 40s can suffer from some form of ed due to blood flow issues from atherosclerosis affecting the penile arteries. Correcting blood flow with viagra (sildenafil) or Cialis may be satisfactory enough.
