Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Andrology
  • Sexual Medicine

Background:

  • Urological pathologies can significantly affect male sexual function.
  • Understanding treatment impacts is crucial for patient quality of life.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate changes in male sexual function (erection, ejaculation, sexual intercourse frequency, orgasm) related to urological conditions and treatments.
  • To identify specific urological pathologies and treatments most detrimental to sexual health.

Main Methods:

  • A 30-item questionnaire administered to 1016 males (aged >18) treated for urological diseases between 1990-1991.
  • Statistical analysis using Statgraphics and Statistica software, employing chi-squared and Wilcoxon Z tests.

Main Results:

Related Experiment Videos

  • A high prevalence of impaired sexual function parameters (erection, ejaculation, sexual intercourse frequency, orgasm) was observed.
  • Benign prostatic hyperplasia and its associated treatments demonstrated the most significant negative impact on sexual function.

Conclusions:

  • Urological conditions lead to a significant decrease in erection, ejaculation, sexual intercourse frequency, and orgasm.
  • Preoperative assessment of sexual function parameters is recommended for male patients undergoing urological treatment.
