Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Superiority Efficacy of Nasotestt comparing to Androgel on normalization of the blood testosterone levels

    The success of treatment will be evaluated through statistical comparison of percentage of participants that achieved normal blood testosterone levels after 60 days of use.

    60 days

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Improvement of erectile dysfunction symptoms

    60 and 90 days after starting treatment.

  • Improvement of prostatic symptoms

    60 and 90 days after starting treatment.

  • Improvement of abdominal perimeter

    60 and 90 days after starting treatment.

  • Global Clinical Response to treatment

    90 days after starting treatment.

  • Incidence of adverse events

    During 120 days

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Satisfaction and comfort of Nasotestt use

    After 120 days
