Male sexual dysfunction is a common entity in primary care practice. The 3 most common types are erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, and decreased libido. Clinicians must be comfortable and skilled in taking a complete sexual, social, and medical history and performing a physical examination in persons complaining of sexual dysfunction. Treatment of male sexual dysfunction may include medications and individual or couples psychotherapy. Treatment should be aimed at reducing emotional and physical morbidity in the patient and his partner.
