Summary

The prevalence of obesity has risen dramatically worldwide. Beyond its metabolic implications, obesity profoundly impacts sexual health, particularly in males, with erectile dysfunction emerging as a prevalent and distressing comorbidity. Studies show that bariatric surgery alleviates erectile dysfunction. Patients suffering from obesity have lower testosterone levels, which increase after weight-loss surgery. This study aims to investigate the relationship between erectile dysfunction improvement, weight loss and hormonal changes after surgery.
