Objective: Irregular patterns of marital cohabitation are a common problem in upper Egypt due to employment conditions. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of irregular marital cohabitation on the quality of life and sexual function of infertile men. Methods: In total, 208 infertile men were included and divided into two groups. The first group included 134 infertile men with an irregular pattern of marital cohabitation and the second group included 74 infertile men with a regular pattern of marital cohabitation. All subjects were assessed through a clinical evaluation, conventional semen analysis, the fertility quality of life (FertiQoL) questionnaire, the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) score, and the premature ejaculation diagnostic tool (PMEDT). Results: The two groups were compared in terms of conventional semen parameters, FertiQoL, IIEF-5 score, and PMEDT. Infertile men with an irregular pattern of marital cohabitation had significantly lower subscale and total FertiQoL and IIEF-5 scores. Additionally, they had significantly higher PMEDT scores. Erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation were more common in them than in infertile men with a regular pattern of marital cohabitation. Conclusion: Irregular patterns of marital cohabitation had an adverse effect on quality of life and sexual function in infertile men.

Background: We aimed to investigate anxiety, depression and sexual satisfaction levels and the effects of depression and anxiety upon the sexual satisfaction of Turkish breast cancer patients and their partners. Materials and Methods: Data were collected from one hundred breast cancer patients and their partners, using three forms: one covering information about socio-demographic characteristics of the patients, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADs) and the Golombok-Rust Inventory of Sexual Satisfaction (GRISS). Results: The frequencies, avoidance and touch subscores were statistically significantly high in the patients. Among those with high anxiety scores, the frequency, communication, satisfaction, touch, and anorgasmic subscale scores of GRISS were found to be significantly high. Among the partners whose anxiety scores were high, only the premature ejaculation subscale was statistically significant. It was determined that for partners with higher depression scores, the communication, satisfaction, avoidance, premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction subscores of GRISS were statistically higher compared to partners with lower depression scores. Conclusions: Patients' quality of life may be increased by taking precautions to reduce their and their partners' psychosocial and psychosexual concerns.

Neuroablation should be performed cautiously because neuropathic pain can occur following denervation of a somatic nerve. A 34-year-old man presented with severe penile pain and allodynia following a selective neurectomy of the sensory nerve that innervated the glans penis for treatment of his premature ejaculation. He was treated with various nerve blocks, including continuous epidural infusion, lumbar sympathetic block and sacral selective transforaminal epidural blocks, as well as intravenous ketamine therapy. However, all of the treatments had little effect on the relief of his pain. We performed spinal cord stimulation as the next therapy. After this therapy, the patient has currently been satisfied for 3 months.

A study was designed to investigate the effectiveness of Korean Red Ginseng (ERG) as an oral agent for erectile dysfunction (EF), which was compared to that of placebo and trazodone. Patients who were believed to have EF of mild or non-organic etiologies, randomized into 3 groups to receive 600 mg KRG 3 times daily (group A), placebo (group B) and 25mg trazodone once a day after evening (group C). All agents were given orally. Ninety patients, composed of 30 in each group, were included and analyzed only when clinical follow-up could be achieved at the end of the study for at least 3 months. There were no significant differences(p>0.05) between each group in mean age (43.7 years), duration of EF (5.8 years), the state of marriage (married : 80 patients) and duration of marriage (18.2 years). In group A, the parameters such as rigidity and tumescence on erection, early detumescence, libido and patient's satisfaction were significantly more effective than that of other group (p<0.05). But there were no significant differences in the parameters such as the frequency of coitus, premature ejaculation and morning erection between 3 groups (p>0.05). The efficacy achieved with KGR (60%) was significantly higher (p<0.05) than that of placebo (30%) and trazodone (30%). There were no significant changes on level of serum testosterone and type of AVS-penogram in group A. No side effect was demonstrated in all patients.

Serotonin(5-hydroxytriptamine, 5-HT)은 biogenic amlne류 신경전달물질로써, 다양한 생리조절활성을 갖고있다. 생식과 관련된 5-HT 기능으로 최근 사정 기능의 조절 가능성이 제시되었는데, 항우울제로 흔히 사용되는 selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor(SSRI) 계 약물을 장기 투여할 때 Premature ejaculation이 개선된다는 임상적인 증거들이 보고되었다. 본 연구는 수컷 흰쥐를 사용하여 생식기관, 특히 사정과 관계되는 기관들에서의 5-HT 수용체 아형들의 유전자 발현 여부와 그 조절 기작을 조사하였다. 흰쥐 수컷의 생식장기들인 고환, 부정소, 정관, 정낭에서 사정현상에 관여하리라 추정되는 세로토닌 수용체 아형들(type 1A, 1B, 2C)의 유전자 발현을 RT-PCR과 Southern blot으로 확인하였다. SSRI(sertraline)을 흰쥐에 매일 투여하는 모델(25mg/개체, 2주간)에서 1A 아형의 발현의 경우 정낭에서는 감소하였으나 정관에서는 증가하였고, 1B 아형의 발현은 두 장기에서 공히 증가하였다. 고환 제거후 testosterone(T) 보충 실험 모델을 사용한 실험에서, 정낭에서의 1A와 1B 발현은 T 보충에 의해 감소하였고, 정관에서는 큰 변화가 없었다. 한편 고환, 정낭과 정관에서의 세로토닌 수용체 아형 1A와 1B의 발현은 사춘기의 개시와 함께 증가하였다가 이후 점차 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 본 연구 결과는 사정 현상에 있어서 말초성 세로토닌 시스템이 중요한 역할을 담당할 가능성을 시사하는 것으로써, (i) 고등 포유동물에서의 사정 기작의 조절에 대한 과학적인 이해를 증진시키고, (ⅱ) 세로토닌 수용체 아형간의 특이한 발현과 작용에 대한 이해를 통해 보다 효과적인 사정 부전 치료법 개발을 시도할 수있고, (ⅲ) ontogeny와 sex steroid 의존성에 관련된 연구 시도는 노화와 관련된 사정능력의 변화와 같은 남성과학 분야로의 접목을 기할 수 있다고 사료된다.

Objectives : The Levator Ani Muscles Training(LAMT) is one of the well known very effective prevention and treatment method of some specific diseases in the anal organs, digestion system, urinary organs and genital organs, which means LAMT could be considered as an independent exercise. Methods : Chinese databases were searched and found one good source named CNKI(China National Knowledge Infrastructure) where there were downloaded 154 articles, out of which were finally selected 82 used for the introduction of the historical background, health-effectiveness, working mechanism, training methods, etc. Results : LAMT as an independent exercise, is considered very effective for the prevention of diseases in the anal organs, e.g. hemorrhoids, anal fissure, rectal prolapse; urinary organs, e.g. urinary incontinence, frequent micturition; digestion system, e.g. visceroptosis, diarrhea, chronic enteritis; genital organs, e.g. prostatitis, impotence, premature ejaculation, feminine vaginal relaxation, sexual indifference, etc. It is also told LAMT is effective for coronary heart disease, hyperyension and varicose veins of lower extremity to a certain degree. LAMT is also very similar to the Kegel exercise in couple of aspects. They are equally effective for the urinary incontinence and impotence. Conclusions : LAMT as an independent exercise has developed and become more and more health-effective, especially through the combination with the Qigong exercise, and thus many training methods have been introduced. There are not many scientific research and development with very limited accomplishments even in China. It is strongly required to strengthen the research and development activities so that LAMT will become one of the very effective natural healing soonest possible.
