[Evaliating men's health survey results within the framework of "men's health school"]

Within the framework of "Men's Health School" 571 men were examined in 2014. The mean age of the surveyed men was 49.66+/-14.5 years. 86% (227) of the surveyed men had PSA levels from 0 to 4 ng/ml. Prostate ultrasound scan showed prostate enlargement in 37.2%+/-6.0 of men. The disturbances of libido or sexual life were registered in 45.5% (221) of the surveyed men. 58% of patients reported insufficient penile rigidity for sexual intercourse, 50% reported a sharp decrease in the amount of ejaculate, and 10% - pain during erection. Detailed medical history showed that in many patients the disease was provoked by family discord. The study findings revealed the poor condition of the male reproductive system in Kazakhstan. Resolving this problem requires considerable logistical costs, and an integrated approach to the early detection of diseases of the male reproductive system. The reproductive health of men was found to be affected by somatic, psychological and sexual health factors. At present we can say about the need for such "Men's Health School" in all regions on a regular basis, especially with the training of the primary care physicians.
