This episode of Opt to Thrive takes a little detour...sort of. For those of us with male partners, erectile dysfunction doesn't just affect him. This condition can have a significant impact on both partners as well as be detrimental for the relationship.
As a GP, Dr Sims knows all too well the fact that most men are less likely than women to visit a doctor, in particular to engage in preventative health measures such as regular screenings or check-ups. It is often only after prompted repeatedly by his partner, that a man seek a medical opinion about a health concern.
Erectile dysfunction can be an early warning sign of serious conditions. Early identification and management of these conditions can result in life saving outcomes. Erectile dysfunction is also almost always treatable. So this episode is for those women with a male partner who is struggling to "pitch a tent" in hopes that it may just save a lot of grief, turmoil and heartache not to mention a life.
