Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Detection of differences in the effects of testosterone versus estradiol treatment on general quality of life measured by psychological sum scale of the SF-36 questionnaire;Secondary Objective: Comparison of levels and excretion products of testosterone, estradiol and other metabolites of sexual hormones Analysis of effects of different levels of hormones on the levels of SHBG, LH, FSH, Insulin, Glucose, Cholesterol (total, HDL, LDL), Triglycerides, Hematocrit and Hemoglobin Detection of differences in the effects of testosterone versus estradiol treatment on general and sexual quality of life Analysis of residual androgen receptor activity and correlation between residual activity and effects of testosteron Comparison of the incidence of adverse events between both treatments ;Primary end point(s): Quality of life as measured by the psychlogical sum scale of the SF-36 questionnaire;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At months 0, 2 (start of study medication 1), 5, 8 (end of study medication 1 and start of study medication 2), 11, 14 (end of study medikation 2) and 17 (end of study).

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
