Abstract:
:Erectile dysfunction is a common disorder. However, not all dysfunctional men want to pursue evaluation. To delineate the characteristics of men interested in evaluation of erectile dysfunction, we conducted a mailed survey of 1031 randomly selected male veterans aged 30-99 years. We received 427 completed surveys. Using logistic regression, we found loss of sexual pleasure, loss of stiffness and duration of erection, and the ability to have orgasm to be predictors of which men were interested in evaluation of erectile dysfunction. Age, functional status, availability of a partner, marital status, sexual interest, partner's sexual interest, and duration of dysfunction were not significantly different between men interested and not interested in evaluation of erectile dysfunction.
