The Center for Sexual Medicine treats all aspects of sexual health, including the following:
7 Conditions
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a condition in which the prostate enlarges as men age. More than 70 percent of men over the age of 60 have urinary symptoms attributable to BPH.
Ejaculatory dysfunction is the general term for several different conditions. It's the most common form of male sexual dysfunction and a potential cause of male infertility.
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is the inability for a man to achieve and sustain an erection. In the great majority of cases, ED is a symptom of an underlying condition like vascular disease, neurological disorders such as multiple sclerosis, psychological states like stress, depression, lack of stimulus from the brain and performance anxiety or traumatic injury. In addition, chronic illness and certain medications can cause ED.
Urinary incontinence is the loss of bladder control. There are several types of urinary incontinence including stress incontinence, where urine leaks during activities that strain the abdomen; urge incontinence, resulting from an overactive bladder that contracts unexpectedly; overflow incontinence, which occurs when the bladder weakens or a blocked urethra prevents normal emptying; retention problems that occur when urine cannot be released from the bladder; and problems with urgency and frequency, when there’s an uncontrollable urge to urinate resulting in emptying the bladder more often than normal.
Peyronie's disease is a condition that causes curved and painful erections. This happens when scar tissue forms in the tissues under the skin of the penis.
Premature ejaculation is a condition in which you ejaculate sooner than wanted. As many as one in three men experience premature ejaculation at some point, and it's usually not a cause for concern if it doesn't happen often.
