Kaempferol (KAE) is a natural flavonoid with powerful reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging properties and beneficial effects on ex vivo sperm functionality. In this paper, we studied the ability of KAE to prevent or ameliorate structural, functional or oxidative damage to frozen-thawed bovine spermatozoa. The analysis focused on conventional sperm quality characteristics prior to or following thermoresistance tests, namely the oxidative profile of semen alongside sperm capacitation patterns, and the levels of key proteins involved in capacitation signaling...

BACKGROUND: Penile hypersensitivity is not the whole penis, but rather only a part of the penis. Though local anesthetic can prolong intravaginal ejaculation latency time by reducing penile hypersensitivity, the effect on the hypersensitive and nonsensitive areas of penis is still unclear. AIM: The study aimed to explore whether the effect of local anesthetic on the hypersensitive and nonsensitive areas of the penis is different in premature ejaculation. METHODS: Penile neurophysiological tests were performed on 290 patients with primary premature ejaculation...

PURPOSE: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of botulinum-A toxin injections into the bulbospongiosus muscle for cases of lifelong drug-resistant premature ejaculation (PE). METHODS: Ninety-eight outpatients diagnosed with lifelong PE were randomly assigned to two groups: the botulinum-A toxin group comprising forty-nine patients and the placebo (saline) group also consisting of forty-nine patients. A 100 U botulinum-A toxin was diluted into 10 cc of saline, with 5 cc injected into one side of the muscle (botulinum-A toxin group) guided by ultrasound to distribute across most muscle fibers...

PURPOSE: Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is characterized by a multiform clinical presentation requiring a differentiated treatment based on different phenotypes including the psychosocial and sexual domains. The aim of this study was assessing the complex correlations between somatic, psychological, and sexual symptoms of CP/CPPS patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We performed a cross-sectional study on patients attending a Prostatitis Clinic...

BACKGROUND: Patients with premature ejaculation (PE) are often concerned and distressed about their sexual performance. Hence, they may be more willing to exploit their refractory period to employ sexual coping strategies in order to improve their unsatisfactory sexual intercourse compared with patients without PE. AIM: The study sought to verify the sexual coping strategies of patients with PE in the daily sexual activities. METHODS: We included both patients with PE and individuals without PE and analyzed their sexual behaviors and attitudes by means of detailed interviews and questionnaires...

Premature ejaculation (PE), lifelong and acquired, is the most common male sexual disorder, with serious impacts on the patient and his partner's quality of life, sexual well-being, and psychosocial health. The most popular treatment options are on-demand topical anesthetics and off-label daily or on-demand selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), followed by behavioral therapy. While SSRI treatments are reportedly safe, they are associated with limited efficacy and provide only a temporary delay in ejaculation latency time...

BACKGROUND: The existing literature on alcohol-induced sexual dysfunction has mainly deliberated on erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation, ignoring other important domains of sexual dysfunctions (viz sexual pleasure, sexual desire, arousal, orgasmic function). This study was undertaken to assess the extent of alcohol-associated sexual dysfunction and to compare their severity with the severity of alcohol dependence in males. METHODS: A cross-sectional descriptive study design recruited 78 male patients and an assessment was conducted using the Changes in sexual functioning questionnaire male clinical version, International index of erectile function scale , Severity of Alcohol Dependence Questionnaire , Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-5 (DSM-5) and International Classification of Diseases-10 (ICD-10)...

INTRODUCTION: Primary premature ejaculation (PPE) is a common male neurobiological disorder. Currently, there is consensus that the impairment in central serotonin (5-HT) neurotransmission constitutes a key pathogenic factor in PPE. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) serve as the primary pharmacological intervention; however, a comprehensive elucidation of their mechanism of action remains incomplete. Owing to significant individual variability in efficacy, SSRIs exhibit a high discontinuation rate...

OBJECTIVE: The autonomic nervous system (ANS) plays an important role in maintaining physiological regulation. It regulates the body's response to many variable situations. Orthostatic intolerance (OI) is one of the most important signs of autonomic dysfunction. Autonomic dysfunction is known to cause premature ejaculation (PE) by disturbing the balance in erection and ejaculation cycles. Considering that OI may develop due to autonomic dysfunction in patients with PE, we hypothesized that OI symptoms would increase in these patients...
