Disorders of the Male Reproductive System

4.0K
Men's health issues are increasingly recognized as significant, with several conditions posing common threats. Among these, testicular cancer is especially prevalent in younger men, particularly those aged 20 to 35 years. The disease often manifests as a painless mass in the testicles, sometimes accompanied by a sensation of heaviness or a dull ache.
Prostate disorders are another major concern. These conditions can impair urinary flow due to the prostate's location around the urethra....

Menopause

3.5K
Menopause, a natural biological process marking the end of a woman's fertility, typically occurs between the fifth and sixth decade of life. This phase is characterized by the exhaustion of the ovarian follicle pool, leading to less responsive ovaries despite the high levels of Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing Hormone (LH). The consequential decrease in estrogen production results in symptoms like hot flashes, heavy sweating, headaches, hair loss, muscle pains, vaginal...

Male Sexual Response: Erection & Ejaculation

19.3K
Sexual stimulation can take various forms, such as physical touch and visual or auditory cues. When this happens, the parasympathetic reflex in the sacral portion of the spinal cord is activated. This reflex stimulates the release of nitric oxide (NO), which then dilates the arterioles in the penis, increasing blood flow to the erectile tissues - the corpora cavernosa and corpus spongiosum.
The blood filling the erectile tissues compresses the veins, which helps to prevent blood from leaving...

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Sexual Medicine
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Radical prostatectomy is a primary treatment for prostate cancer.
  • Orgasmic function is integral to patients' quality of life.
  • Post-surgical sexual dysfunction is a significant concern.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the literature on orgasmic function after radical prostatectomy.
  • To identify key risk factors impacting post-operative orgasmic function.
  • To discuss the recovery trajectory of orgasmic function.

Main Methods:

  • Comprehensive literature search of relevant databases.
  • Synthesis of existing research on prostatectomy outcomes.
  • Analysis of factors influencing sexual recovery.

Main Results:

  • Several risk factors significantly affect the likelihood and timing of orgasmic function recovery.
  • Patient-related and surgical factors play a role in outcomes.
  • The recovery period varies among individuals.

Conclusions:

  • Understanding risk factors is crucial for managing patient expectations.
  • Further research can optimize strategies for preserving/restoring orgasmic function.
  • Addressing sexual health is essential in survivorship care.
