Can Ulcerative Colitis Affect Male Sexual Function?

Patient's Query

Im wondering if Ulcerative Colitis can affect a man's sexual ability causing ED. Either that or is it possible for UC to cause low testosterone? Is this possible without me taking any medications?

Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar

A situation that inflames the colon, ulcerative colitis, can result in symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and fatigue. Even though inflammation and stress brought on by UC do not cause directly erectile dysfunction (ED) or low testosterone; they can have an impact on sexual health. The best way forward is to treat UC effectively while also finding ways of reducing stress.

If someone swallowed a small rubber band by mistake will it cause any issues

Female | 24

Swallowed a tiny rubber band? No need to worry! It usually passes through your body without any issues, and you might not even notice it. However, if you experience stomach pain, nausea, or difficulty passing stool, seek medical attention immediately, as it could indicate a blockage.

I am having itching in my butthole i dont know why i am having it .

Male | 17

Itchiness in the anus can be annoying, and it can be because of many different factors. At times, it can happen because of not cleaning properly after using the toilet. Moreover, conditions such as piles, skin, agitations could be the culprits. Use mild, unscented wipes or a soothing cream to decrease the itching. In case there are no improvements, make a point to visit a healthcare provider.

after drinking the alchocol with the beer i got vomit the little blood what is the reason

Male | 22

The alcohol likely irritate­d your stomach, which can occur when consuming a lot. Throwing up blood might indicate a blee­ding stomach ulcer. Look out for stomach pain, dizziness, and fee­ling faint. It's important to stay hydrated and avoid alcohol until you're fee­ling better. If it persists, se­ek medical attention right away.

I am a 38 year old man and lately I have blood in my stool and also when I have sex with my girlfriend I have rectal bleeding. Is ejaculation related to homorroids?

Male | 38

When you see blood in your stool or have it while having sex, it might be because of hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids are swollen blood vessels around the anus and lower rectum that can bleed, hurt, or itch. Ejaculation alone doesn't cause them but pushing during bowel movements or any other activity can worsen them. To relieve yourself eat more fibre, drink lots of water, and seek advice from a doctor.
