Sexual Dysfunction Due to Premature Ejaculation, Erectile Dysfunction and Hormonal Deficiencies

Throughout their lives, many men will experience sexual dysfunction due to premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction and hormonal (testosterone) deficiencies. Our physicians are uniquely qualified to address the challenging problems of erectile dysfunction, arousal disorder, orgasmic dysfunction, Peyronie's disease, and priapism. In addition to leading the clinical studies validating many of the medical therapies for both erectile dysfunction and the concept of penile rehabilitation after prostate cancer treatments, NYU Urology was one of the original investigative sites for Viagra®. We are currently exploring new medical therapies for the treatment of erectile dysfunction that include gene and topical therapies, as well as drugs that constitute the second generation of Viagra®. When medical treatments are unsuccessful, our physicians are also able to offer a multitude of highly effective surgical approaches.

male sexual health Dr. Alukal Infertility is a problem that can be devastating to young couples. Since the inability to initiate pregnancy is related to male factors in 40 percent of couples, potential male conditions leading to infertility must be investigated when a couple is having difficulty conceiving. In such cases, NYU urologists use a comprehensive approach to identify and treat any reversible forms of male-related infertility that may be a factor.

Microsurgical Techniques for Testicular Sperm Retrieval, Vasectomy Reversal and Varicocele Repair

Where no treatable male cause is identified, we continue to work closely with the NYU Fertility Center to find a solution. Thanks to recent advances, many couples that would have been unable to conceive a child just ten years ago are now able to have biological offspring. Our surgeons are also expert at performing microsurgical techniques for testicular sperm retrieval, vasectomy reversal and varicocele repair. In addition to standard treatments for male infertility, we continually evaluate the latest advances in fertility research, always striving to help couples achieve their goal of parenthood.
