Introduction
Sexual health is a critical component of male well-being and interpersonal relationships. Sexual dysfunction affects men of all ages and often reflects underlying physical, hormonal, or psychological conditions. Andrology addresses these disorders through comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment.
Common Male Sexual Disorders
The most common sexual disorders include erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, delayed ejaculation, anejaculation, and reduced sexual desire. These conditions may result from vascular disease, erotic sense, neurological impairment, hormonal imbalance, medication side effects, or psychological factors such as anxiety and depression.
Diagnostic and Therapeutic Framework
Diagnosis involves a detailed sexual history, physical examination, laboratory testing, and psychological assessment when appropriate. Treatment options include pharmacological therapy, hormonal regulation, behavioral techniques, psychotherapy, lifestyle modification, and partner involvement.
Holistic Care Approach
Andrology emphasizes a holistic, patient-centered approach that addresses both physical and psychological contributors to sexual dysfunction. This comprehensive strategy improves long-term outcomes and patient satisfaction.
Conclusion
Sexual dysfunction is not an inevitable consequence of aging. With specialized andrological care, most men can achieve meaningful improvement in sexual health and confidence.
