Resumo: |
Introduction: The comfort of modern life causes two important side effects: physical inactivity and obesity. The current lifestyle is strongly influenced by sedentary behavior with a possible effect on sexual activity. Objective: To investigate the relationship between sedentary lifestyle and erectile dysfunction (DE), considering: a) the clinical characterization of patients; b) an evaluation of the level of physical activity, and c) a possible correlation between ED and physical activity. Patients and Method: We prospectively studied 50 patients with ED treated between August 2014 and February 2015. The analysis of the association between the degree of ED (moderate and severe) and qualitative variables (diabetes, alcoholism, smoking and physical activity) was investigated using Pearson's chi-square test. Results: Of the patients studied, 21 (42%) had moderate (grade 2) and 29 (58%) of severe (grade 3). The most common age (38%) was the sixth decade of life. Most patients (86%) was overweight. Regarding the level of physical activity of the participants, 38 (76%) reported being active, 6 (12%) insufficiently active and 6 (12%) reported though sedentary. Results showed that 38 participants (76%) presented DE even being physically active, contrary to our initial expectations, since regular physical activity has not reduced the occurrence of ED. Conclusions: There was predominance of patients with ED in the sixty decade of life and overweight. The majority of patients with ED presented high level of physical activity. There was not a significant association between ED (moderate and severe) and level of physical activity (active, insufficiently active, and sedentary). |
