The mean age of patients was 48.01, with extremes of 24 and 77 years. The over-50 age group was the most represented at 47%, with shopkeepers accounting for 22.4%. After questioning, the most common reason for consultation was SBAU (69.69%), as opposed to complaints from the partner (9.09%). 37.87% of patients had an enlarged prostate at TR. In most cases, the results of these examinations were normal, confirming the psychogenic origin of the vast majority of ED. In terms of evolution, 25.8% regained a normal erection, 45.5% noted a progressive improvement over several months, while 6.1% showed intermittent improvement and 7.6% noted no improvement; 3.0% noted a worsening of the dysfunction. And 13.6% were lost to follow-up.
