Mužské stárnutí z pohledu sexuologa – Šrámková Taťána (2023)

Sexuality is an important part of life. We can talk about andrological aging in men aged 40 and over (which includes a large part of the population), yet the sexuality of aging men and seniors remains taboo. The book provides readers with a comprehensive view of male aging from an andrological perspective in the context of diseases with high incidence in old age. Type 2 diabetics, men after pelvic oncology surgeries, and cardiac patients most often suffer from sexual dysfunctions (especially severe erectile dysfunction). Thanks to modern replacement therapy with testosterone derivatives and contemporary treatments for erectile dysfunction, the duration of active sexual life is extended, and the quality of life for men aged 40 and over is improved. The author also currently mentions the impacts of the COVID-19 infectious disease epidemic on the aging male population. This professional monograph is intended for the postgraduate education of first-line doctors, general practitioners, and specialists – cardiologists, diabetologists, oncologists, internists, neurologists, urologists, surgeons, psychiatrists, psychologists, and physiotherapists. A monograph of this specific focus has not yet been published in our country. The author is an associate professor of sexology and an experienced author of monographs, chapters in monographs, and publications released both domestically and internationally.
