Results: About 77.5% of our patients had erectile dysfunction, and 87.5% of patients showed anxiety disorders. while While 52.5% of patients showed depressive disorders and, 27.5% of patients had abnormal free testosterone levels. There was A high negative significant correlation revealed between IIEF-5 score and deformity grading, but with there was no significant association between duration or type of leprosy and psychiatric disorders. The results showed significant negative correlation between IIEF-5 and Beck depression inventory. But no statistical significant difference regarding free testosterone level (p-value=0.109) was found between erectile dysfunction (ED) group and non ED group. Conclusion: Erectile dysfunction, anxiety and depression are very common in among patients with Hansen's disease. and sSuch problems are related to level of deformity not to type or duration of disease and not related to testosterone level.
