The new study published in the British Medical Journal (BMJ), looked at and evaluated over 500,000 people who had been infected with the coronavirus. It was found that the participants complained of experiencing reduced libido and difficulty in ejaculating. Furthermore the researchers also found that hair loss was a common long term problem associated with decreased sexual health.
As per Doctor Sanghvi, Clinical technology lead at LloydsPharmacy Online Doctor, “In my experience as a doctor, these symptoms can all impact men’s confidence and, thus, their sex lives.”
“Since this research came out, interest in the link between long Covid and these symptoms has skyrocketed,” he adds.
In addition, the doctor also pointed out: “Google search volumes show queries asking ‘Does covid cause erectile dysfunction’ were up 650 percent week on week, while searches for ‘Long Covid hair loss’ increased by 130 percent.”
“In my view, this is evidence that this is something men are really concerned about.”
That said, it is not only important to understand these symptoms in detail but one must also know how to tackle these problems. Doctor Sanghvi advises on the same.
