Interestingly, it is a common myth that low testosterone is a very common cause of ED. Low T only causes Erectile Dysfunction in about 20% of patients. Therefore, testosterone replacement therapy does not improve ED in most cases.
So while it is always a possibility that Low T is causing your ED, the probability that it is being caused by something else is much higher. In my own practice, I always do diagnostic testing in order to confirm the medical cause of the ED before I recommend any treatment options.
Low desire is a symptom of low T is it not?
