Common Disorders of the Male Reproductive System
The male reproductive system can be affected by various disorders that impact fertility and overall health. Common conditions include erectile dysfunction (ED), prostate issues, and testicular disorders. ED, the inability to achieve or maintain an erection, can result from physical, psychological, or lifestyle factors. Prostate problems, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer, are prevalent among older men and can cause urinary and sexual dysfunction. Testicular disorders, including testicular torsion and varicoceles, can affect sperm production and health. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for managing these conditions and maintaining reproductive health.
