Associated conditions like diabetes or cardiovascular disease can greatly impact a man’s sexual health, but so can general lifestyle and well-being behaviors. BMG doctors look to identify problem areas and their potential influences on overall patient health. After diagnosis and treatment programs are prescribed, many of these health and behavioral corrections can be made by the patients themselves. Some of the treatment programs made available to patients include:
- Wellness Lab Testing
- Tobacco and Alcohol Cessation Counseling
- Fitness and Nutritional Behaviors
- Lifestyle Management Programs
- Sexual Health Programs
According to one recent study*, “Improvements in lifestyle and the proper management of medical comorbidities are arguably the most beneficial and safest treatment. This first-line approach is, without a doubt, the most difficult to execute. Patient education detailing the risk factors for ED is a logical first step.” The findings continue to conclude that “Lack of physical activity, obesity, unhealthy diets, and cigarette smoking have all been shown to contribute to ED.”
A patient’s general health and wellness is always a consideration when BMG doctors diagnose and prescribe a treatment program. Overall positive health of the patient is important and can often greatly help alleviate specific sexual health issues. click here for more information on health and wellness
