An investigation of factors that determine when men with erectile disorder present for treatment.
This study by Sangan Sookdeb explored the factors that determine the time interval between men suffering the onset of erectile disorder and their presentation for treatment. As prognosis is considered to be related negatively to the length of time a man suffers erectile disorder understanding factors that delay presentation may identify changes in practice methods that will encourage earlier presentation.
