Treatment of Sexual Disorders

Description

Sexual impotence, which may disrupt normal sexual activity in the middle and latter part of life, needs prompt diagnosis and treatment. The cause may be disease-related or may be a result of the physiological changes occurring during middle age. Diabetes, hardening of the arteries, radical prostatectomy and other surgical procedures within the pelvis, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, high blood pressure, sedatives, drugs for high blood pressure, antidepressants, anti-psychogenic drugs, alcohol and other ingested drugs all are possible causes of sexual impotence. Fear of intercourse, anxiety, anger, depression, and other psychological disorders occurring in middle age may be other factors. Therefore, it is important to be able to pinpoint the exact cause of the problem for proper treatment. A trained professional should make the diagnosis. If the impotence is caused by psychological factors, psychiatric treatment is delivered. If the impotence is due to physical causes-with the exception of hormonal treatments and direct blood vessel surgery-all possible methods of treatment are explained to the patient, and he is allowed to choose the method her prefers.

Penal insertion surgery



Insertion surgery is an alternative that can be considered for those who do not have much success with the above technique or find it inconvenient to practice. However, since this surgery precludes further impotence treatments, the patient is advised to weigh the possible outcomes and complications before making a decision. In most cases after surgery, the erect penis is smaller than its natural counterpart. And, if complications, such as inflammation occur, the penile insertion device will have to be removed. The patient satisfaction rate is 90% and is the highest among all available techniques. Depending on the patient's selection, the penile insertion can be one of three types: bending type, inflatable, and automatic inflatable types.


Blood vessel reconstructive surgery





This surgery corrects impotence caused by insufficient blood being supplied to the penis, because the relevant artery is blocked or the outgoing vein is deformed and subject to leakage.
