The main purpose of this study is to evaluate if testosterone solution can raise testosterone hormone levels into the normal range, and also improve levels of sexual arousal, interest and drive and/or energy level, in men with low testosterone and decreased sexual arousal, interest and drive and/or decreased energy. The study will last about 16 weeks, followed by an optional 24 week open label treatment phase to investigate the long term safety of testosterone solution.

Number of Participants With Total Serum Testosterone Concentration Within Normal Range at Week 12
Normal range for total serum testosterone was defined as 300 to 1050 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dL).
Time frame: Week 12
Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Sexual Arousal, Interest, and Drive (SAID) Scale Scores
The SAID Scale is a self-administered instrument used to assess sexual arousal, interest, and sex drive in men with symptomatic hypogonadism. The SAID consists of 5 questions that were scored on a scale from 1 to 5, with "5" corresponding to greater levels of sexual arousal, interest, or drive. The SAID Scale total score was computed by summing the item scores and linearly transforming the sum to a 0 to 100 scale, with higher scores corresponding to greater sexual arousal, interest, and drive. Least squares (LS) mean change from baseline was calculated using an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with treatment group and the baseline value as covariates.
Time frame: Baseline, Week 12
Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Hypogonadism Energy Diary (HED) Scores
The HED is a self-administered instrument used to assess real-time energy levels in men with symptomatic hypogonadism. It consists of 2 questions that were scored on a scale from 0 to 10, with "10" corresponding to "Full of Energy" or "Not Tired at All" (The Tiredness scale was reverse-mapped, as it was collected with "10" corresponding to "Extreme Tiredness"). The questionnaire was completed 3 times daily (forming 6 unique items) for 7 consecutive days. Item scores were computed by averaging the values for each item across 7 days. If more than 2 days were missing for an item, the item score was missing. The total score was computed by summing the item scores and linearly transforming the sum to a 0 to 100 scale, with higher scores corresponding to greater energy. If any item score was missing, the total score was missing. LS mean change from baseline was calculated using ANCOVA with treatment group and the baseline value as covariates.
