If you’re looking for a men’s sexual health doctor, you’re in good company. Nearly half of all U.S. men are experiencing some form of sexual dysfunction. Though they may not talk about it or seek treatment, a lack of male sexual fitness can do a lot of damage to a man’s self-esteem and relationships. What’s more, men’s sexual wellness issues can also be a symptom of a larger underlying health issue, so it’s important to seek the care you need—especially now that you can speak with a board-licensed men’s sexual health doctor from the comfort and privacy of your own home without a referral from your primary care physician.
Sexual wellness for men refers to a state of wellbeing that allows a man to fully perform and enjoy sexual activity. Common reasons to visit a men’s sexual health clinic might include:
Aging, trauma, anxiety, relationship problems, drug use, low blood levels of testosterone, or chronic kidney disease can all be potential factors in low libido for men. Depending on the cause, a doctor may suggest counseling, drug therapy, or testosterone supplementation.
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is one of the most common sexual wellness issues—experienced by up to 30 million men. Many factors can play into erectile dysfunction—including untreated depression, stress, low testosterone levels, nerve damage, and even cholesterol-clogged arteries. In fact, ED can be an early warning sign for heart disease, so this is one inconvenience you won’t want to ignore. Treatments may include pills, injections, or devices.
Premature ejaculation affects 30-40% of all men, and refers to the consistent release of semen within 1 to 3 minutes of penetration. Causes are often hormonal, but could also be due to undiagnosed erectile dysfunction
Conversely, the 1-4% of men with delayed ejaculation may require 30 minutes or more of penetration in order to release semen—or in some cases, they may only be able to do so through masturbation. Causes can range from psychological conditions such as guilt, fear, porn addiction, and anxiety to physical conditions like hypothyroidism, nervous system conditions, aging, or an obstruction.
Approximately 8% of men are unable to experience pleasure and orgasm during sex. Causes can be congenital, hormonal, psychological, side effects of medication, or related to physical conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure. Treatments may include care for related medical issues, testosterone therapy, treatment of mood disorders, massage, or counseling.
Worldwide, more than 1 million sexually transmitted infections are acquired every day. Chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis, and trichomoniasis are curable, while others (like herpes or HPV) may come and go over a lifetime. Untreated STDs are not only uncomfortable and embarrassing, but they can also predispose a person to cancer.
About 10% of men who are trying to conceive a child suffer from male infertility. There are over a dozen potential causes of infertility in men, so semen analysis and other tests may be necessary to understand the issue. Fortunately, with treatment, 90% of seemingly “infertile” men go on to produce their own biological children.
Sexual performance is such a private matter, that it can be embarrassing to go to a doctor’s office or men’s sexual wellness clinic to seek treatment.
Fortunately, the rise of telemedicine during the 2020 pandemic led to increased access to such treatments, allowing patients to have all their male sexual health questions answered, including:
The best way to improve sexual health is to undergo a series of minimally invasive tests to determine the root cause of your issues. A physician will ask you a few questions about your family medical history and the nature of your relationship with sex. Often, blood tests, semen tests, or diagnostic imaging is needed to investigate underlying factors.
Male sexual wellness encompasses more than the absence of disease—and in fact covers a wide range of physical, hormonal, psychological, and social aspects of one’s holistic health. Beyond the perpetuation of the species, optimal men’s sexual health allows a man to engage in pleasurable activities, form intimate bonds with others, and release stress.
