Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Dermatology
  • Infectious Diseases

Background:

  • Balanoposthitis is a common genito-urinary infection with varied symptoms, potentially leading to severe complications.
  • This condition can manifest in four types of sexual dysfunction: desire, erectile, satisfaction/ejaculation, and orgasm disorders.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the prevalence and impact of sexual dysfunction in patients with Candidal Balanoposthitis.
  • To identify factors contributing to Candidal Balanoposthitis and associated sexual dysfunction.

Main Methods:

  • An observational clinic study involved 50 patients diagnosed with Candidal Balanoposthitis.
  • Patient sexual function was assessed using a standardized questionnaire based on KOH and clinical findings.

Main Results:

  • Sexual dysfunction is a common issue in patients with Candidal Balanoposthitis, often seen in STI clinics.
  • Factors such as advanced age, Diabetes Mellitus, and poor genital hygiene increase the incidence of both the infection and sexual dysfunction.
  • Addressing sexual dysfunction is crucial for patients' emotional and psychological well-being, impacting overall quality of life.

Conclusions:

  • Candidal Balanoposthitis is a significant cause of sexual dysfunction, particularly in the elderly population.
  • The condition negatively affects emotional and psychological health.
  • Modifiable factors like diabetes management and hygiene practices can prevent recurrent infections and improve outcomes.
