  • Andrology
  • Sexual Medicine

Context:

  • Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) frequently co-occurs with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS).
  • Erectile dysfunction and ejaculatory disorders are common comorbidities in men with LUTS/BPH.
  • The interplay between LUTS severity and sexual dysfunction is a significant clinical concern.

Purpose:

  • To explore the association between lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and sexual dysfunction.
  • To analyze the impact of BPH treatments on sexual function.
  • To highlight clinical considerations for managing BPH in sexually active individuals.

Summary:

  • A positive correlation exists between the severity of LUTS and the degree of sexual dysfunction.
