Article Synopsis
- Kidney transplant (KT) and hemodialysis/peritoneal dialysis (HD/PD) were studied to evaluate their impact on erectile dysfunction (ED) and sex hormone levels in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
- The study included 100 patients, with 50 on HD/PD and 50 post-transplant, revealing that post-transplant patients had higher testosterone levels and significantly improved sexual function.
- Results indicated that 92% of patients on HD/PD experienced ED compared to only 42% after transplantation, highlighting KT as a beneficial treatment for improving erectile function and normalizing hormone levels in ESRD patients.
