Endocrinological Disorder in Men

The endocrine system consists of glands that regulate our growth, metabolism, and sexual development. In men, the endocrine glands release the sex hormones estrogen and testosterone.

And sexual dysfunction is an indication of serious Endocrinological Disorder. Low sexual desire and reduction in ejaculate volume are associated with less than normal testosterone levels in men.
