Study on Postoperative Sexual Function Status and Influencing Factors of 210 Patients With Prostate Cancer

Objective To investigate the postoperative sexual function status and influencing factors with prostate cancer at different ages. Methods A total of 210 patients diagnosed with prostate cancer who were admitted to Pingmei Shenma Medical Group General Hospital from January 2018 to May 2019 were selected, and the sexual function status was evaluated by questionnaires. The incidence of total erectile dysfunction was compared among patients at different ages and Gleason scores, and patients at different ages were assessed for quality of life. At the same time, smoking, drinking, and surgical methods were selected as influential factors to analyze whether they had an impact on sexual function status after surgery. Results Among the 210 patients, 113 had postoperative erectile dysfunction, and the total incidence of the elderly group was as high as 79.17%, and there were differences in sexual function and quality of life among patients of different ages （P<0.05）. In addition, the patients with higher smoking index and drinking index had higher possibility of postoperative erectile dysfunction（P<0.05）, the results were statistically significant. The surgical method had no effect on patients with erectile dysfunction after operation （P>0.05）. Conclusions Prostate cancer patients have poor sexual function after surgery, which was affected by many factors, and appropriate and correct interventions should be given.
