Popis: | PREVIEWMany of your male patients may be reluctant to talk about problems they are having with sexual functioning. However, it is important that you routinely and sensitively ask about erectile dysfunction in patients as young as 40, because the condition may be a sign of previously undetected vascular disease. In this article, Dr Kolodny explores the connection with vascular disease and suggests ways that primary care physicians can help patients reduce their risk of both erectile dysfunction and potential underlying disorders. |
