35 Corona et al., J Sex Med. 2014;11:1577 The effects of testosterone supplementation (TS) on male sexual functions in ED subjects are still more controversial. Another controversial issue is the effect of TS on PDE5i outcomes The aim of present study is to meta-analyse available data evaluating the effect TS on male sexual function and its therapeutic synergism with the combined use of PDE5i.

45 Recommendation 11: Combination therapy with T and PDE5- Is (EBMl1b). Evidence is emerging suggesting a therapeutic synergism with the combined use of Tth and PDE5-Is in men with ED and low T. These observations are preliminary and need additional studies. However, combination therapy can be considered in TD men who have not improved with T alone. In addition it is recommended to measure T in case of PDE5-Is failure if not previously done. Data suggests that the threshold level of T for optimal response to PDE5-Is is 3 ng/ml for TT and 52 pg/ml (180 pmol/l) for cft. J Sex Med. 2013;10:245.

No differences between transdermal and parental formulations T supplementation is able to improve orgasm function particularly in subjects with low T levels More studies comparing PDE5i+T in hypogonadal subjects are advisable
