Low sexual desire is usually interpreted as a symptom of andropause/ADAM/ PADAM. To explain the desire shift, a great deal of emphasis has been given to laboratory values, especially changes in T. Still, the typical history has received much less attention. Only one analyse of aging men seems to have analysed different manifestations of sexual desire. Schiavi et al. reported on 77 volunteer couples who responded to an announcement concerning a examination of factors contributing to health, well-being, and marital satisfaction in older men. Three groups of men were compared: 45 54, 55 64, and 65 74. The following were conclusions linked to the issue of sexual desire: (i) sexual interest, responsiveness, and activity was noted even among the oldest men; (ii) increasing age was associated with erectile dysfunction, but not with HSDD or PE (premature ejaculation); (iii) the following frequences systematically decreased with age: desire for sex, sexual thoughts, maximum time uncomfortable without sex, coitus, and masturbation; and (iv) . . . the degree of satisfaction with the men's own sexual functioning or enjoyment of marital sexuality did not change with age .
As far as the laboratory is concerned, measuring BAT is the desired parameter for determining hypogonadism, although it is not always available. Abnormality is evaluated by comparing the T level with young adult men. If the testosterone level is below or at the lower limit, it is wise to affirm the results with a second determination with assessment of LH and . . . FSH.
Etiology
In addition to hormones, many other changes take place in male physiology which lead to the aging process. One nonsexual example that is referred for the use of rendering perspective, is the multiple constituents which are associated with diminished bone mass and which include: low estradiol (E2), vitamin D deficiency, low GH, low T, poor nutrition, smoking, certain medications, excess alcohol, inactivity, lack of exercise, poor calcium intake, genetic predisposition, and certain illnesses.
