Abstract

The evaluation and treatment of male sexual dysfunction has evolved into a more extensive evaluation. This new evaluation should now include evaluation of hypogonadism, ejaculatory function, lower urinary tract symptoms, and depression. The evaluation may be readily accomplished with the use of questionnaires. The management of these entities is discussed, including the novel phosphodiesterase-5 for male erectile dysfunction. Inclusion of the partner in the evaluation and management scheme will provide added benefit and may produce a better outcome.
