Synopsis

Sexual dysfunction affects men of all ages and incidence rates are expected to double by 2025 resulting in a major health burden. Though normal sexual function is an important aspect of health and well-being, sadly, this common condition still carries an associated stigma. As a result, affected men are often reluctant to approach their doctor and, instead, may live for many years with sexual dysfunction, often to the detriment of their personal lives.

With full color throughout, this easy to read guide provides a comprehensive and systematic approach to patient management. Packed with key features, every chapter will contain flow diagrams and algorithms, key points, clinical pearls, �what to avoid� boxes, and numerous tables, graphs and photographs . This book provides:

• Comprehensive focus on the core clinical areas of physiology/pharmacology, investigation, diagnosis, management and surgical options
• Coverage of all treatment pathways, including psychological, pharmacologic and surgical
• A straightforward, logical approach to clinical management
• An experienced and international editor and contributor team

Expertly-written, this book is the perfect resource for urologists and general practitioners with an interest in this highly topical area, as well as those about to undergo their urology trainee examinations.
