Subjects and method: Cross-sectional description, 36 patients with Cushing syndrome due to Glucocorticoid. All patients were tested and answered the IIEF questionnaire. Results: Patients with cushing due to glucocorticoid had a high rate of erectile dysfunction of 83.3%. The average blood cortisol concentration in the group with erectile dysfunction was higher than the group without erectile dysfunction (8,58 ± 10,38 and 1,09 ± 1,06). The average blood testosterone concentration in the group with erectile dysfunction was lower than the group without. Conclusion: Patients with cushing due to glucocorticoid have a high rate of erectile dysfunction.
