Dr Manohar provides expert assessment and treatment for a wide range of men’s health conditions affecting sexual function, hormonal health and fertility. Explore the conditions below to learn more about symptoms, causes and available treatment options.
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual activity.
Erectile dysfunction is extremely common and may occur occasionally or become a persistent problem. While the risk increases with age, ED can affect men of all ages.
Common causes include:
Because erectile dysfunction can sometimes be an early sign of an underlying health condition, a thorough assessment is often recommended.
Treatment options vary according to the underlying cause and may include lifestyle modifications, medications, injectable therapies, vacuum devices or surgical treatments.
For men with severe erectile dysfunction that has not responded to other treatments, penile implant surgery may provide a highly effective and long-term solution.
A penile implant is a concealed prosthetic device placed entirely within the body. Modern implants are designed to restore erectile function while maintaining a natural appearance and sensation.
Penile implants may be considered for men who:
Penile implant surgery is associated with high patient and partner satisfaction when performed in appropriately selected individuals.
Dr Manohar can discuss whether penile prosthesis surgery may be suitable for your circumstances.
Peyronie’s disease occurs when scar tissue develops within the erectile tissue of the penis, causing curvature during erection.
Symptoms may include:
The severity of Peyronie’s disease varies considerably between individuals. While some men experience only mild curvature, others develop significant deformity that affects sexual function and quality of life.
Treatment depends on symptom severity, degree of curvature and individual goals and may include observation, medical therapies or surgical correction.
Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone and plays an important role in energy levels, libido, muscle mass, bone health and overall wellbeing.
Some men develop testosterone deficiency, resulting in symptoms such as:
Because these symptoms can also occur with other medical conditions, careful assessment is important before treatment is considered.
Investigation typically involves a detailed medical history, examination and blood testing. Management is tailored to the individual patient and based on current evidence-based guidelines.
Male infertility contributes to approximately half of all couples experiencing difficulty conceiving.
A range of factors may affect male fertility, including:
Assessment typically involves medical history, examination, semen analysis and, where appropriate, hormonal and imaging investigations.
Identifying the underlying cause is important in determining available treatment options and improving the chances of achieving a successful pregnancy.
Premature ejaculation is one of the most common male sexual health concerns.
While definitions vary, premature ejaculation generally refers to ejaculation that occurs sooner than desired and results in distress or frustration for the individual or their partner.
The condition may be:
Potential contributing factors include:
A detailed assessment can help identify contributing factors and guide treatment recommendations.
Management may involve behavioural techniques, medications, counselling or a combination of approaches depending on individual circumstances.
Many men’s health concerns are interconnected. For example, erectile dysfunction may be associated with cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hormonal disorders or the effects of previous prostate cancer treatment.
