[Peculiarities of erectile dysfunction in men with alcohol dependence]
Abstract:
To verify the etiopathogenic structure of erectile dysfunction in alcohol dependence, we have investigated 80 men with erectile dysfunction and alcohol dependence (the main group) and 40 men with erectile dysfunction without alcohol dependence (the control group). Endocrine and vasculogenic forms of erectile dysfunction were more frequent in men with alcohol dependence as compared to men without alcohol dependence, and the presentation of sexual disorder was complicated due to the increase in the number of accompanying syndromes. At the same time, as alcohol dependence progresses, the part of organic forms of erectile dysfunction and the number of syndromes which accompany erectile dysfunction increase.
