Impotence is a widespread phenomenon; about half of couples
entering sex therapy and one quarter of those entering marital
therapy will complain of this problem. As baby boomers enter their
fifties and grow older during the next few decades, many more men
will be affected by this problem. In this groundbreaking work,
Gerald Weeks and Nancy Gambescia present the first serious
discussion of comprehensive psychological and medical treatments
for erectile dysfunction after the advent of Viagra. Though most
recently Viagra has catapulted discussion of erectile dysfunction
to the front pages of major newspapers and, via television,
American living rooms, there are actually a number of different
treatment options available. In fact, medical therapies for
erectile dysfunction have developed at an ever-increasing pace in
the last 20 years. Yet, despite widespread advances made in the
treatment of erectile dysfunction, the field of sex therapy has
lagged significantly behind in how it addresses the problem. The
authors offer an integrated approach that examines both the organic
and psychological factors contributing to erectile dysfunction.
With this treatment model integrating both medical and
psychological therapies, the authors also stress the role of the
couple's relationship in the etiology and treatment of the
dysfunction. The book presents medical information (about various
kinds of drugs as well as other interventions); physiological
information (why certain drugs work and why some don't);
psychological information (the effects of the disorder on both the
individual and the couple); and practical information (when and how
to seek treatment and what type of treatment works best under
different conditions). For sex and couple therapists and
physicians, Erectile Dysfunction presents a systematic method for
evaluating erectile dysfunction, determining whether its basis is
primarily organic or psychogenic, and treating it by integrating
medical interventions with sex and marital therapy. For the person
seeking treatment (and for his spouse), the book offers a thorough
and impartial discussion of the disorder.
