Résumé |
Introduction and objectives |
The objective of this study was to retrace the emotive, relational and sexual preliminary statements of ED in young adult patients.
Materials and methods |
40 patients between the ages of 18 and 25 were chosen. They had to have been suffering from ED for at least 6 months and have had a stable sexual partner for 3 to 6 months. The following questionnaires were administered in this order: IIEF, HAM-D, RSES CES-D, DSI-R. At clinical level oral medicines for erectile dysfunction were prescribed at low dosages.
Results |
These depressive traits were found. The results for HAM-D was 26.8+/-1.80 and for the Italian version of the CES-D 29.4 +/- 1.5. As far as self-esteem is concerned there is a greater feeling of inadequacy and vagueness of self image (37.6 +/- 8.2). The desire for conformity with, family of origin expectations was high, as well as the ambivalence of trust and self-defence in relation to the partner. The remission of the symptoms was declared between the second and the third interview of psycho-sexological counselling.
Conclusions |
Psychogenic ED in young males is a symptom of the inability of the individual to face the adult world and relationships with women as well as the moment of liberation of the patient from the family.
